The Wasabi Company Verified independent store

Smaller and rounder than regular lemons, Meyer Lemons have a thinner, smooth skin that ranges in colour from bright to a deep golden yellow. The skin sometimes has a slight orange hue, reflecting their mandarin heritage. Meyer lemons are thought to be a cross between a regular lemon (Citrus limon) and a mandarin orange (Citrus reticulata). The flavour is milder and sweeter than that of a standard lemon, with floral notes and a subtle tanginess. The juice and zest can be used in salad dressings, marinades, desserts (like lemon tarts or cakes), cocktails (such as lemon martinis or lemonade), or simply paired with seafood and roasted vegetables.
