Lemon Juice

Lemon juice has a tart flavor and is an important factor in numerous dishes. If you want to get a tangy taste, adding lemon juice to foods is a great way to boost flavor. Due to its acidity, lemon juice can be added to marinades to help in the tenderization of meat.

You may substitute lemon juice for white wine in cooking because of their similar functions. Lemon juice is quite tart, therefore it shouldn't be used in place of white wine on an equal basis to prevent the flavor of your food from being overpowered. Lemon juice should be diluted with equal parts of water before being used in recipes. For instance, you should substitute half a cup of lemon juice with half a cup of water when a recipe asks for one cup of white wine. Lemon juice is a nutrient-rich beverage. 94% of your daily requirements for vitamin C are met in only half a cup, along with some potassium, B vitamins, vitamin E, and magnesium.
