Urban girl tip: getting the most from a lime

If you are like me, you never seem to have enough limes around for what you are cooking. Next time you are caught citrus short-handed, try this quick and easy tip:

To get the most juice from a lime, give it a quick 5-10 second zap in the microwave. Roll it on the counter to break up the pulp before cutting it in half. You'll get twice as much juice! Even a dry lime or lemon can come back to life with this trick.
