I just slice the lemon into 4 wedges (I don't bother trying to keep it together) which I find packs into a jar more easily. Then I add enough salt to completely cover/surround the lemons, especially on top. This recipe is great with meyer lemons.

TIL there's such a thing as salt cured lemons. Thanks!

Sure! They're excellent in stews, with grilled meats, in pasta, etc. I have also used them in lemonade and cocktails.

Mine, just done in August. The liquid just got syrupy about a week ago, that's when they really get tasty.

How do you preserve it once it reaches the tasty stage?

[–] Cheradenine 2 points 11 months ago

It pretty much stays there, you don't need to do anything. I always keep it in a cupboard, out of direct sun. Other than that I don't do anything. After a few years the flavor profile gets muted and it's time to make a new batch.

They look great! You're right, they're perfect when they get to that stage. Takes a bit of time, but worth it.
