Their fruit is a symbol of the Mediterranean lifestyle, sunny outdoors, blue skies and leafy greens. Lemons&#8217; sunny yellow evokes energy, light, warmth. No wonder lemons have been inspiring generations of Italian artists and artisans!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Lemons and interior design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Lemon-themed ceramics are the perfect accents for Mediterranean decor style. A geographical variation of the much broader coastal decor trend, it focuses on light and warm color schemes, and extensive use of natural materials such as ceramics, wood, and wrought iron. Statement pieces, such as bold <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/italian-home-decor\/sicilian-moorish-heads.html\">ceramic Sicilian heads<\/a>, large planters, rich textiles and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/italian-tiles.html?manufacturer=744\">tilework<\/a>, are often used to amp up the space&#8217;s color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh288ldl-_1__1-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4031\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh288ldl-_1__1-4.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4031#main\" class=\"wp-image-4031\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh288lul-_1__1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4030\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4030#main\" class=\"wp-image-4030\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>The true nature of lemons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The proverbial phrase &#8220;When life gives you lemons, make lemonade&#8221; has somehow given lemons a bad rap. It implies lemons are sour or difficult, when they are quite the contrary. Perhaps the person who coined that phrase just never visited Italy in late spring, when luscious lemons are at the peak of their harvest. Picking a large, untreated lemon directly from a tree overlooking the Mediterranean Sea releases a rush of sweet, citrusy aromas that intoxicate the brain. Left to ripen on the tree, the lemon actually becomes sweeter, so much so that some Italians love to eat them plain with just a pinch of salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although originally from Asia, the lemon tree has been cultivated in Italy since as early as Ancient Roman times. They were grown along the coastline as a prime crop, thanks to their high levels of vitamin C which were important in preventing scurvy among sailors. Today lemons are as &#8220;Italian&#8221; as olives, espresso, and handmade ceramics. The mild, sunny Mediterranean weather &#8211; especially in Sicily and along the Amalfi Coast &#8211; is the ideal climate for the tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"884\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p07_1_.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4034\" class=\"wp-image-4034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p07_1_.jpg 884w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p07_1_-768x521.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p07_1_-619x420.jpg 619w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 884px) 100vw, 884px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p19l.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4035\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p19l.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4035#main\" class=\"wp-image-4035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p19l.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p19l-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/gh285-p19l-619x413.jpg 619w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2>Is lemon the most versatile fruit?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The lemon is perhaps the most versatile fruit in Italy; its juice, rind, oil and peel are used in everything from perfumes, lotions, and soaps to culinary delights. But it&#8217;s that last one, the culinary delights, that is truly heavenly. Even just the smallest addition of a bit of organic lemon peel can add a burst of flavor, so it&#8217;s no wonder that Italian cuisine has created a number of special dishes and treats featuring this special fruit. From antipasti to after-dinner liquors, lemons have long been a staple in classic Italian recipes.<br>To name a few: lemons are the perfect accompaniment to any primi e secondi di mare (first and second courses featuring seafood), followed by a delicious sorbetto al limone to clear the palate. World-famous limoncello is best served chilled as an after-dinner digestivo. However, one of our personal favorites appeases the sweet tooth in all of us. Sicily is synonymous with cold Italian ice &#8211; nothing hits the spot like a granita al limone served in a Brioche bun on a hot summer day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lsgh011.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4032\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4032#main\" class=\"wp-image-4032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lsgh011.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lsgh011-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lrd061-38-1-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4003\" class=\"wp-image-4003\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lrd061-38-1-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lrd061-38-1-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lrd061-38-1-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lrd061-38-1-1-619x619.jpg 619w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/lrd061-38-1-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4033\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4033#main\" class=\"wp-image-4033\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_-619x619.jpg 619w, https:\/\/www.thatsarte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/mef011l-_1_.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lemons have been decorating Italian pottery for centuries, especially in the Southern regions of our beautiful country.
