Seedless Squeeze

Oct 21, 2009


Chefs, bakers and food enthusiasts now have an easier squeeze of it with seedless lemons from Los Angeles-based specialty produce and foods distributor Melissa’s Produce, which imports exotic fruits and vegetables from around the world. The new fruit variety, which is available year-round speeds up preparation time and, in common with its seeded relatives, enhances the flavor of such items as chicken, fish, vegetables, sauces, marinades, soups and fruit salads.
