We’ve understood that nothing should be thrown away from lemons: the juice adds flavor to sweet and savory recipes, diluted in water it quenches thirst; the zest gives the aroma to cookies and cakes, or flavors the alcohol used to make limoncello. What about the seeds? They’re not a product to be thrown away.
Of course, we can plant them in pots to create a new seedling. Wash them carefully, dry them, and remove the thin skin with tweezers. Place them in a glass on top of a damp cotton ball. After a while, we’ll see the first shoots; when they grow, we can plant them in the ground.
Or, and this is a real surprise, they can become bags of terms.
Wash and dry them, then place them in a cotton, linen, silk, tulle, or cloth bag. Seal them and warm them in the microwave or on a radiator. They will absorb heat but release it slowly: therefore, we can use them on painful areas like the neck, neck, and joints to take advantage of their natural healing power.
