When I put lemon slices on pizza earlier this year, a few people were a little skeptical about that idea. But if you cut them thin, you can totally eat them! They’re chewy and delicious, giving a burst of citrus flavor to any dish you add them to. I used Meyer lemons because they’re in season and they’re slightly less tart than their non-Meyer counterparts. If the thought of eating lemons just doesn’t appeal to you, you can remove them before eating. But you’re missing out!
