Does limon juice affect the browning of an apple?
Answers:
Well, I didn't see "WHY" from any of your answers below, so here it is Amigo:
lemon juice has "citric acid" which is an antioxydent. The browning you see when you slice an apple and expose the meat inside is the reaction it has when exposed to oxygen... it is "oxydizing". By applying lemon juice, an anti-oxydent, it prevents the browning, or "oxydizing" of the apple.
No.
yes, Lemon juice will prevent the Apple when sliced from turning brown.The Apple should be sprinkled with Lemon juice, if it will be standing for a while. or used in a salad .
Yes, if you brush lemon juice on sliced apples, it will keep them from turning brown. It is not permanent, but will ensure they will look fresh long enough for a nice presentation.
Sure does (if you mean lemon). It will help keep the apple from browning.
yes. i learned in my foods class to sprinkle lemon juice on a sliced apple to keep it from browning, somehow the acid in it stops the browning. thats what they use on fruits on commericals, because those fruits are usually sitting like that for 3 or so hours.
