Quick Kitchen Prep Techniques: Juicing Citrus

Quick Kitchen Prep Techniques: Juicing Citrus

1. Prepare the fruit: If the fruit seems hard to the touch, it may not release a lot of juice when squeezed. So, firmly roll it back and forth on the counter or place it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to release the juices.
2. Halve the fruit: Slice the fruit in half along the equator exposing the flesh.
3. Juice the fruit: Squeeze the fruit over a slotted spoon to catch any seeds or pith.
