Lemon and orange peels can be worth their weight in gold when mixed with vinegar. Here’s what they can be used for.

On our tables at the end of lunch or dinner, but also for a tasty snack, we use a lot of fruit and most of the time among these there is always a citrus fruit, especially oranges and lemons.

These citrus fruits are very important as not only can they be available all year round and therefore not only in certain seasons but they adapt perfectly to any type of dish.

Lemon and orange peels: this is why they should never be thrown away

Lemon , in particular, is widespread in both sweet and savory meals as well as orange and is therefore a very indispensable ingredient especially for Italian cuisine which has made it a real treasure.

Suffice it to say that some types of lemons, such as those from Sorrento or other types from the Amalfi Coast, have become real products of our territory, as have oranges, the most famous of which are Sicilian ones.

These citrus fruits, in addition to being useful for cooking, are also an excellent ally for defeating ailments and for strengthening our immune defenses as they contain a lot of Vitamin C.

In fact, a nice orange juice not only strengthens our body but also helps to heal easily from colds and in summer consumed cold and with ice cubes, it refreshes the palate.

Lemon also has useful properties for our body. Like orange , a nice lemonade, quenches thirst during the warmer months, and can also be useful for digestive problems or other problems, due to its astringent action.
