Something you can make with lemon
Origin
Lemon is a citrus fruit that originated in Southeast Asia, specifically in the region of Assam, northern Burma, and China. It has a long history of cultivation and usage in various cultures, including ancient Egypt, Rome, and Persia. Lemons were later introduced to Europe during the Crusades, and eventually made their way to the Americas through Spanish and Portuguese explorers. Today, lemons are grown in many parts of the world, including the Mediterranean region, California, Florida, and other citrus-producing regions.
