Do you rinse preserved lemon before using?
I finally preserved some of my Meyer lemons a while back and am hot to try some recipes, but I notice none of them say anything about rinsing them before using. I only used salt, no sugar, so I wondered whether they might be too salty to use as is in a recipe. So, rinse or no rinse? Thanks!

I took some cooking lessons in Morocco and have no recollection of washing the lemons. I don't wash sauerkraut either--why wash away the good flavor?
