What is this product?
TRS Citric Acid (Zitronensäure) is a natural, food-grade crystalline acid derived from citrus fruits. Widely known in Sri Lanka as "Lemon Lunu" (Lemon Salt), it is a concentrated, dry form of the natural acid found in lemons and limes. A tiny amount provides a powerful, clean sour tang that instantly brightens any dish or drink.
Why choose this product?
Fresh lemon juice adds water and can affect the texture of preserves and baked goods. Citric acid provides the same sharp, citrusy acidity in a dry, concentrated, and shelf-stable form. TRS provides a pure, food-grade product that is trusted by home cooks and professional kitchens alike for consistent, reliable results every time.

FAQ
How much citric acid equals the juice of one lemon?
As a rough guide, approximately 1/4 teaspoon (about 1g) of citric acid dissolved in water provides a sourness roughly equivalent to the juice of one medium lemon. Adjust to taste as citric acid is significantly more concentrated than fresh juice.
