To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook preserved lemons using 3 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Preserved Lemons:
  1. Get 1 Organic, unwaxed lemons
  2. Prepare 1 1/2 tbsp Salt (per lemon)
  3. Get 1/2 tbsp Sugar (per lemon)

These will keep for about six months. Preserved lemons are whole lemons that have been preserved by being packed in tall jars with salt, flavoured with herbs and spices, covered with lemon juice or brine and left to cure for a few weeks. Traditionally used in Moroccan and Middle Eastern cuisines, preserved lemons give an authentic citrus flavour to tagines, and can also be used to add mellow lemony notes to salads and pasta dishes. Once made, they will need to be stored for a month to allow the intense flavours to develop.

Steps to make Preserved Lemons:
  1. Since the peel is preserved too, it's best to use organic, pesticide-free, unwaxed lemons. Wash the lemons well, and cut up in any way you like.
  2. Stuff the lemons in a jar with a lid. Add the amount of salt and sugar appropriate for the number of lemons you are preserving. Close the lid and leave the jar out at room temperature.
  3. A metal lid will become corroded by the salt, so put a piece of plastic wrap over the jar before closing the lid. Shake the jar by flipping it upside down, back and forth, 1 to 2 times a day for the first few days to distribute the salt. Once the salt has melted, you only need to shake the jar occasionally. The lemons will be ready to use in about 2 weeks, but the longer you can let them mature, the milder their sourness and saltiness will become.
  4. When the lemons mature, they'll turn white and limp. That doesn't mean they have gone bad, so don't worry. I have used less salt than is usual, so that the lemons are easy to use as a seasoning ingredient. So try to use them up within 3 months.
