Lemon juicing

Lemon and Lime Juice. Lemons and Persian limes can be extracted using the same PMC and AMC extractors described above. The juice can be concentrated in a TASTE evaporator, an APV Crepaco, Inc. evaporator, or other types of evaporators (13). Although lime juice, and especially lemon juice, are widely used as condiments on food, the bulk of concentrated juice is used to make frozen concentrated lemonade and limeade. Prozen... 

The first clues to the treatment of scurvy occurred in 1535—1536 when Jacques Cartier, on advice from Newfoundland Indians, fed his crew an extract from spmce tree needles to cure an epidemic. Various physicians were recommending the use of citms fmits to cure scurvy in the mid-sixteenth century. Two hundred years later, in 1753, it was proved by Dr. James Lind, in his famous clinical experiment, that scurvy was associated with diet and caused by lack of fresh vegetables. He also demonstrated that oranges and lemons were the most effective cure against this disease. In 1753, inM Treatise on the Scurvy[ Lind pubhshed his results and recommendations (7). Eorty-two years later, in 1795, the British Navy included lemon juice in seamen s diets, resulting in the familiar nickname "limeys" for British seamen. Evidence has shown that even with undefined scorbutic symptoms, vitamin C levels can be low, and can cause marked diminution in resistance to infections and slow healing of wounds. 

Historically, citric acid was isolated by crystallization from lemon juice and later was recognized as a microbial metabohte. This work led to the development of commercial fermentation technology (13). The basic raw materials for making citric acid include com starch, molasses (sugar cane, beet sugar), and normal paraffin hydrocarbons. 

Resistance to corrosion of electroless nickel, both as-deposited and, in most cases, after heating to 750°C, is listed by Metzger for about 80 chemicals and other products. Resistance was generally satisfactory, with attack at a rate below 13 /im/year. The only substances causing faster attack were acetic acid, ammonium hydroxide or phosphate, aerated ammonium sulphate, benzyl chloride, boric acid, fluorophosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid, aerated lactic acid, aerated lemon juice, sodium cyanide and sulphuric acid. 

Alkaloids vary widely in structure, from the simple to the enormously complex. The odor of rotting fish, for example, is caused largely by methylamine, CH3NH2, a simple relative of ammonia in which one of the NH3 hydrogens has been replaced by an organic CH3 group. In fact, the use of lemon juice to mask fish odors is simply an acid-base reaction of the citric acid in lemons with methylamine base in the fish.

Mas is also proudly American. The bartender working on Wednesday, Andrew blunter, curly-headed and all-American, could have been playing John Adams in a college production of 1116. (A server walked by with a black spike Mohawk. He must be playing the natives. It s the West Village, isn t it ) And die ginger daiquiri, which Mr. Hunter developed widi Thomas Wilson, an owner, has Meyer lemon juice in it (as well as Cointreau), a citrus fruit popularized by new American chefs. 

A Southside Fizz is only promoted by establishments that want to conserve their mix. Also, some establishments will use crushed ice, mint leaves and rum (with lemon juice) and blend in a blender. This is also unsatisfactory, as the crushed ice immediately melts and leaves one with the impression that one is drinking a watered-down lemonade. Also, the task of removing tiny bits of mint from your tongue detracts from the enjoyment. Another important hint do not take shortcuts. To save time, some clubs will use frozen lemon juice or lemonade. Any purist who knows the real thing will spot it immediately. Rather than embarrass their host or hostess, he or she will say nothing. But the next time they are invited, he or she will probably order a gin and tonic. 

The sidecar has three ingredients—perfect ingredients. Cognac, Cointreau, freshly squeezed lemon juice—when you make it right, you get a 10, maybe a 12.Tasted, the sidecar s sweet-to-sour sway, and back again, has the smart, sublime balance of a Zen riddle, served in a sleek glass. 

The key to the sidecar is fresh lemon juice, which keeps it bright. Asked if he could make a sidecar and asked if he used fresh lemon juice, Eben Freeman, the happy-dog bartender on duty at the Red Cat last Sunday, said of course, twice. Use lemonade or sours mix, and the drink s a cookie. 

Add the salt, peppers, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice to a shaker. Add ice, vodka and tomato juice. Shake, pour into a highball glass and garnish if you wish. 

Some bleaches smell awful. Some, like lemon juice and sunshine, are refreshing. Here are a few things you should know about bleach. 

Second, reducing bleaches such as lemon juice (in combination with sunlight) or sulfur dioxide convert the double bonds in the chromophore into single bonds, eliminating its ability to absorb visible light. Sometimes the reaction is reversible, where oxygen in the air reacts with the molecule to repair the chromophore, and the stain returns. 

Ultraviolet light from the sun is the most common hair-bleaching agent. Lemon juice is sometimes added to speed up the process of reducing the double bonds in hair pigments to single bonds. 

However, the most famous hair bleach is hydrogen peroxide. Unlike sunlight and lemon juice, peroxide is an oxidizing bleach, and its effects are less easily undone. 

FIGURE J.l The acidities of various household products can be demonstrated by adding an indicator (an extract of red cabbage, in this case) and noting the resulting color. Red indicates an acidic solution, blue basic. From left to right, the household products are (a) lemon juice, (b) soda water, (c) 7-Up, (d) vinegar,...
