Lemons, big bag!

[giggler]

Just received a large bag of of tree ripe lemons from Arizona..

I like citrus for salads and cooking (though I usually use limes)..

Key Lemon Pie?
Try to make these weird "Preserved Lemons" I read so much about?
Lemon Chicken?!

Thanks, Eric, Austin Tx.

You should try some preserved lemons. You only need about a half dozen. Just find a small jar that they will fit in. They really add something different in dishes.

Marmalade, lemon curd (yummm), Limoncello liqueur. Zest and freeze or dehydrate peels for just about anything. Juice and freeze.

Limoncello ~ if you make it now it will be perrrrrfect for sipping out on the patio come summer!

And I have a spoon ready here if you make lemon curd...

Morrocan preserved lemons. You wouldn't believe how this mellows the lemons. I don't remember the exact recipe, but if you can't find it on line let me know and I'll delve into my cookbooks. But you wash and almost quarter the lemons (meaning you leave the quarters attached at one end). You rub the interior that is exposed with kosher salt. Then you use other lemons to make a lemon/water solution, and pack the lemons in a mason jar. Fill to the top with the lemon water solution, cap, and refrigerate (how much you want to bet in the countries where this is common, they don't refrigerate!). Like I said, I don't have all the details at my fingertips right now but would look them up. The resulting preserved lemon is so tasty and mild, you can eat the entire thing as is, skin, pith and all.

I did this often when I had a neighbor with a prolific lemon tree.
