Citron is one of the most excellent and sought-after citrus fruits, part of the Citrus family, whose flavor is very sour and also characterized by a touch of bitterness which makes it even more special than lemon: many other citrus fruits also derive from cedar which are consumed nowadays. Citron is particularly rich in vitamin C, like lemon, to which is also added a rather significant presence of potassium, where the juiciest fruit specimens are distinguished based on weight. Used both to prepare the famous drink, cedrata, and to prepare a large number of desserts, cedar is a protagonist of Italian cuisine, thanks also to the fact that it is grown in southern Italy.
