What is a "squeezer"?
A squeezer is a kitchen tool used for extracting juice from fruits, typically citrus fruits like lemons, limes, or oranges. It usually consists of two handles connected by a hinge, with a bowl-shaped cup or dome at one end and ridges or teeth inside. To use a squeezer, you cut the fruit in half, place it cut-side down into the cup, and then squeeze the handles together. The ridges or teeth press into the fruit, extracting the juice and leaving behind the seeds and pulp.
