w.Can I prepare preserved lemon or do you have a recipe for it?

4 medium (about 1 lb.) lemons
3 tsp Kosher salt
1/2 cup white vinegar
Wash and dry lemons. Cut each in half. Cut each half into 16 equal pieces. Put in a bowl with salt and vinegar. Stir and cover. Let marinate at room temp 1-2 days. Stir occasionally. Store in jar in fridge. Rotate every once in awhile to move marinade.

I always cut the lemons into quarters, lengthwise, sometimes leaving the quarters attached at the bottom, as many recipes suggest, but other times not. You can get a lot more lemons into a jar that way. ;o)

Thanks so much folks for all your help. Greatly appreciated.

It does take a while, but so good...

What time frame do you need it in? If you don't have the several weeks to make it the traditional way, there are several decent shortcuts.

Sure you can; it's very easy. Here is a link to a good method
