My grandmother, who was a great cook, brought this recipe with her from England. I use it as a spread on toast, for filling in a cake or on top of ice cream. -Gloria Costes, West Hills, California

This is a great recipe for using up leftover lemons. I always have a few lemons on hand, so this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon, but this spread was surprisingly good. The lemon flavor is subtle and not overpowering. I'll definitely be making this again.

This spread is a bit too tangy for my taste, but I can see how others might enjoy it. I think I'll try adding a bit of honey next time to balance out the flavor.
