Preserved Summer


I took a class last year at Ciao Thyme on cooking with fish. It has changed my life. I am not afraid of fish anymore and (if I do say so myself, and I will!) I can cook fish, any fish! Yeah! One of the recipes from the class was a vinaigrette with preserved lemons in it. I have been waiting for the Meyer lemons to show up at the grocery stores and when they did I bought 20 and preserved them! It was easy (stay posted if mold shows up) and I put two in each pint jar to give away. I followed the recipe from my cooking class which is very similar to this one although I left the spices out. Today my lemons are ready and I am planning on using them with fish, in vinaigrette and actually where ever I can. If you have some preserved lemons try this vinaigrette or this Dover Sole recipe.

Ciao!

Sounds amazing! I'm going to send this post to my friend who grows lemons here in Arizona.
