Meyer lemon
A rounded lemon with thin skin and fragrant juice, milder than the yellow lemon.
The Meyer lemon, a hybrid of lemon and mandarin, has thin skin turning orange-yellow when ripe and very juicy flesh. Its juice is less acidic than that of a standard lemon, with floral, slightly sweet notes. Its highly aromatic zest is particularly prized. A speciality citrus fruit sought after in pâtisserie and creative cooking.
