I thought you were supposed to use Meyer lemons. I can't ever find them around here, so haven't tried this yet. Might have to break down and use regular lemons.
I do them with salt only too.I have some vague plans for doing a batch with spices, but I worry I won't like them.
I think Meyer lemons are milder in flavour so maybe they are a good beginner preserved lemon
Well that's a good point. Because preserved lemons taste, to me, like lemon pledge. Not that I've ever tasted lemon pledge. But I think that's what it would taste like. I don't really like them but probably because my mom never really cooked with them while I was growing up. My sister, on the other hand, will eat them straight out of the jar. Blech.
we recently tried a batch similiar to the Indian-spiced ones here: http://debjanidass.wordpress.com/2013/09/22/1578/... completely different than the straight up salt & lemons we usually do (we did some of those too!), and very very tasty... looking forward to our next curry just for an excuse to chop up some preserved lemon
this link is broken, do you have another one?
