Tips:

Use Fresh Lemon: Freshly squeezed lemon juice adds a vibrant flavor to the bread. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor won't be as pronounced.

Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.

Use Good Quality Poppy Seeds: The quality of the poppy seeds can make a big difference in the flavor of the bread. Look for poppy seeds that are fresh and have a nutty, slightly sweet flavor.

Let the Bread Cool Completely: Before slicing and serving the bread, let it cool completely. This will help the bread to set and make it easier to slice.

Store the Bread Properly: Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the bread for up to 2 months.
