I need lemon juice for my pancakes! I have lemons, but no squeezer. How to get the juice out?
Any clever ways?

Slam (ok maybe not slam but ykwim lol!) it down on the worktop and roll it a bit before you cut it, this helps to get more juice out

Or cut in quarters and stab in a fork then squeeze pointy ends together either side of the fork.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no: 203.0

We sliced our lemon and just squeezed the slices over the pancake.0

We cut ours into 4, through the ends, rather than through the equator, IYSWIM. Hold the pointy ends and bring them together and squeeze.
It would be pancake day every day at Penguin Towers if we had our way!

Squeeze using your hands as a filter to catch the pips ala TV chefs0

Hi, Don't forget to pop the lemon into the microwave for a about 45 seconds or so, that gets you double the amount of juice out of the lemon. Then just cut and squeeze, If i remember rightly, you can use a cut lemon as well.20p savers club

Just slice it in half and squeeze the juice through a sieve. I have never owned a lemon squeezer.
