'zactly what a Meyer lemon is - is a bit murky. the initial stock originated in China, where it was developed over millions/thousands/hundreds of years so the parentage sans somebody coming up with DNA "proof" is difficult to pin down.
that said, if it tastes like a lemon, might be one . . .
Meyers are popular in the home garden because they are easy to grow and produce fruits in relatively a short period of time.
I personally would not over-fret meself about the skin being too thin. like,,, how much zest you need today? if you're going into commercial production of dried zest, could be an issue. for the average demand, not likely to be a tree buster. |
