9 lemons, scrubbed clean and dried
1/2 cup sea salt,
¼ cup sugar
1 cup lemon juice

Steps:

  • 1. Wash the jars and sterilize them, lids and rings as well. Wash the lemons very well and dry.
  • 2. Slice one end off of each lemon and with a mandolin " if you have one " but remember there are no fingers in this recipe so please be careful "giggling " or slice the lemons as thin or thick as you would like them.
  • 3. Slice the lemons into a glass bowl.
  • 4. Add the salt, sugar and lemon juice, and cover and toss several times. Let this sit covered for about 30 minutes on the counter.

  • 6. Put the lemons in the jars and top with juice. Cover let the jars sit out for at least 3 hours flipping them about ½ every hour or so.
  • 7. After that time put them in the refrigerator for about 3 weeks. Every day turn them up side down for a minute and put back into the refrigerator.
  • 8. When the lemon rinds turn almost translucent they are ready to use. You are only limited by your imagine on how to use these.

These lemons are delicious! I used them to make chicken piccata and the flavor was amazing. The lemons added a bright and tangy flavor that really complemented the chicken. I'll definitely be making these again.
