Quick Preserved Lemons

A delight to add to many recipes from Middle Eastern dishes to fresh green vegetables. Enjoy P.S. While cooking the lemons, the aroma fills our home and eases the 'closed-in' feeling of winter.

This is quite possibly the greatest addition to my culinary repertoire in a decade! What a delightful surprise to discover how versatile these lemons are! A bit of chopped preserved lemon rind as a substitute for lemon juice in any recipe takes it to a whole new level. Try it in tuna salad. Add to hummus. Also good in couscous, rice… your favorite fish recipe… the possibilities are endless. Remember to rinse the lemons before using, as they are extremely salty. You’ve got to try this to really “get it”.
