Lemon Citrus limon

The lemon (Citrus limon) is a species of small evergreen trees in the flowering plant family Rutaceae.

The tree’s ellipsoidal yellow fruit is used for culinary and non-culinary purposes throughout the world, primarily for its juice, which has both culinary and cleaning uses.

The pulp and rind are also used in cooking and baking. The juice of the lemon is about 5% to 6% citric acid, with a pH of around 2.2, giving it a sour taste. The distinctive sour taste of lemon juice makes it a key ingredient in drinks and foods such as lemonade and lemon meringue pie.

Lemon is named differently according to its shape and the regions where it grows. It is widely produced in the Aegean and Mediterranean regions of our country.
