Q: Wash 4 lemons and use a sharp knife to slice them into very thin slices. You should get about 6 slices from each lemon. Discard any seeds and set the lemon slices aside. Try to use organic lemons since these haven't been sprayed with pesticides and you'll be eating the peels. Once the slices are cool to the touch, you can use them as a garnish for fancy desserts or baked goods. For example, place lemon slices on cupcakes, cakes, or in cocktails. If you have leftover lemon slices, place them in an airtight container and refrigerate them. You can store the candied lemon slices for up to 1 month.
