Spring is in the air and it is that time of year again when lemon trees bloom and the Sicilian air is fragrant with Fiori di Limone which then turn into big juicy lemons. The Sicilian climate and fertile volcanic earth creates a long growing season and the gathering of lemons takes place over three periods. First is the Autumn harvest Primo Fiore following the cultivation of the Bianchetti in Spring and the Verdelli between June and July.
I can remember once driving down a country lane behind an opened back truck full of lemon peel and the aroma was overwhelming, a traffic jam Sicilian style. At this time of year everyone visiting our Sicilian home will bring us bags full of lemons from their gardens or land. But what do we do with all those lemons?
