Lemon marmalade is a delicious product made from lemon pulp and peel, cooked with sugar until a thick, sweet mixture with a characteristic tangy and refreshing flavor is obtained. It is commonly used as an accompaniment for bread, toast, and cookies, as well as in the preparation of desserts and pastries.
The lemon, native to Southeast Asia, particularly the region comprising Northeast India and Northern Myanmar, has spread throughout the world, adapting to various climates. Lemon marmalade is popular in Hispanic cuisine for its balance of sweetness and acidity, which adds a vibrant touch to recipes.
Regarding its properties, lemon marmalade is a source of vitamin C and antioxidants, although its caloric content is higher due to the amount of sugar used in its preparation. Therefore, it is recommended to consume it in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: it may be found under names such as dulce de limón, conserva de limón, or simply mermelada de limón, depending on the region and the method of preparation.
