How To Cook: |
|
|
1. With a small, sharp knife, slice each of the lemons lengthwise into quarters, cutting to within about ˝ inch of the bottom so that the segments are not completely separated.
|
2. Sprinkle the cut surfaces evenly with the salt and reassemble the lemons, pressing them gently into their original shape.
|
3. Place the lemons in a canning jar large enough to hold them compactly, cover tightly with the lid, and marinate at room temperature for at least 2 weeks.
|
4. Discard the juice that has accumulated in the jar and completely separate the lemons into quarters.
|
5. The salted lemons are used in tajine such as tajine msir zitum and el lahm el m'qali.
