A WOMAN shared a genius hack on TikTok to get juice out of a lemon – without cutting into it.
The trick takes just a few simple steps – and makes it so you don't have to toss out the fruit if you use just a bit of it.
The hack was shared by TikTok user @spicednice – whose name is Farrah J, according to her profile.
She said the hack is perfect for when you need "just a bit of lemon juice" so you don't have to cut open the entire fruit.
"You can just roll it until it softens," she said.
She showed herself rolling the fruit across a counter, softening the inside.
As she squeezed the fruit in her hand, she revealed it had softened.
Farrah then said to "pierce a skewer through the bottom."
She showed a clip of herself putting a wooden skewer through the bottom of the fruit.
"Once you remove that skewer, it's ready to squeeze," she told her TikTok followers.
She then showed a clip of how she squeezed the fruit, and lemon juice came easily out of the hole where she poked the skewer.
"It's mess free, there are no seeds, and that's why it's my favorite lemon hack," she said.
Farrah said she learned the hack when she saw "How to Make Sushi" and it "changed her life."
TikTokers were blown away by the simple trick.
One person said: "i appreciate you."
"what…literally it's the lemon in a bottle but make it fresh," one person commented.
"My life has changed forever!" one person wrote.
Another commented: "and that's great if you need zest later GENIUS."
One person advised: "Just make sure the second time you use it in a few days you cut it open. I do this but sometimes I'm surprised by how fast mold develops inside!
Another person said if you microwave the fruit for 30 seconds, you can "get more juice" out of the fruit.
