Steps:
- Quarter each lemon from top to within 1/2 inch of bottom so that slices are still attached to bottom of lemon.
- Rub salt on exposed flesh and re-form.
- Place 2 tablespoons of salt on the bottom of a jar (size of the lemons will determine the size of jar needed).
- Pack lemons in layers, alternating with salt, until jar is full. Add fresh lemon juice, if necessary, to cover lemons.
- Close jar and store on a shelf.
- Occasionally turn jar over to redistribute salt.
- Lemons can be used in two weeks and will keep unrefrigerated for a year.
- To use, rinse slices under cold water to remove salt.
- Remove and discard pulp.
- Use rind as a flavoring agent, cutting it up to spike up a vegetable salad or to add to the pan when you are deglazing after sauteing meats or fish.
