Here is a picture of a citron from googling images for citron.
http://www.tunedal.com/images/citron.jpg It looks quite similar to a lemon AFAIC. *** On p. 66 of Bugialli's book "Classic Techniques" two male hands are shown slicing up "a whole glaceed citron." Looks like something pretty big and it says, "Citron resembles a large lemon but is a different fruit in that it is larger, shaped like a quince, and has a rough thick skin. It is very popular in the Mediterranean and it's mostly used there and elsewhere for making glaceed fruit." Here is another link that has two pictures, both quite different http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/citron.html Has anyone seen citron in any markets (here in the U.S.)? Thanks, Dee |
