Expert Response
I would suggest freezing the recipe you included in your question.
I don't know if there is a conversion for lemon juice to citric acid other than when adding small amounts like when canning tomatoes. I always add a little sugar to my sauces to reduce the strong lemon flavor.
If you have other food preservation questions you might like to call the OSU Food Preservation/Safety Hotline open M-F from
9 am-4pm. Certified Master Food Preservers are available to answer your question. the number is <personal data hidden>.
