Our lemon tree is covered with fruit and knowing that others have this
plant, I thought I'd post this recipe

Sounds nice but how about something a little alcoholic to go with it made
from the skin only....

Limoncello (Italian Lemon Liqueur)

We had Limoncello last night! We brought some home from Italy, stuck it
in
the freezer and forgot all about it until yesterday (yes, my freezer IS
chaotic) Now, Bob, here's a challenge - what will you make from the
fruit
of our Citrus medica - they are *enormous*!


Has the rind got a nice strong pleasant citrus scent?
If so the same recipe would work.
Or you can candy it.


Someone on uk.food+drink.misc has told me about candying it (sigh..) I'll
go and sniff it tomorrow for the Limoncello idea which sounds *much* more
attractive!
