Carley's Organic Preserved Lemons

Beautiful fresh Organic Sicillian lemons, chopped and brined by Carley's in Cornwall using Soil Association approved sea salt, organic bay leaves and organic whole black peppercorns.

An amazing ingredient to use in your savoury cooking. We like to add some of the chopped tender lemon rind to vegetable, chicken or fish dishes. They are delicious mixed into cous-cous too and are excellent in tagines. The intensely salty lemony brine is fantastic as a rub on chicken and lamb before cooking. A little of the lemon peel finely chopped works wonderfully with rice or pasta. Another recipe favourite is to make a vegetable gratin with any seasonal veg (especially brussels sprouts), garlic, chopped preserved lemon, parmesan, some pine nuts (or any other nuts you fancy), a little olive oil and some sesame seeds or breadcrumbs as a topping. mix together then bake, simple and so delicious!
