Preserved Lemons - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Step1
10 lemons
20 teaspoons sea salt
Step 2
1 lemon, juice of
4 teaspoons sea salt
warm water (to cover lemons)

Preparation

Wash and dry lemons. Cut each lemon into quarters, do not cut all the way through so that the lemon is still intact and joined together at the base.
Spoon about two teaspoons of sea salt into each cut lemon and place the lemon into a sterile glass jar, packing them in tightly. Repeat step until all your lemons you want to preserve have finished.
Add juice of one lemon and four teaspoons of sea salt into the jar. Cover lemons with warm water.
Seal jar and leave in a cool dark place for 40 days and nights. (You can leave them longer than 40 days if you wish) do not refrigerate until opening.
Enjoy.
