My Favorite Citrus Juicer

[amazon_link id=”B000A7S636″ target=”_blank”][/amazon_link]

I use a lot of lemon and lime juice in my cooking, so I’ve tried quite a few ways to get that juice over the years. I’ve tried wooden reamers (ugh, my hand is covered in juice!), one-piece counter models (rarely strain well), and electrics (only really worthwhile if you need to do dozens of lemons at a time). For my money, this [amazon_link id=”B000A7S636″ target=”_blank”]simple citrus squeezer[/amazon_link] is the way to go.

Pros:

• You get just about every drop of juice. (Tip: start with cut side up, then flip and squeeze again to get more.)
• Easy to clean.
• Doesn’t take up much space.
• Simple – no loose pieces to misplace.
• Catches most/all of the seeds.

The only negative I can point to is that it isn’t the heaviest duty item in the world; I do wash mine by hand (which just takes a second) to extend the life and I have used it regularly for a few years with no problems at all.
