Preserved Lemons

Preserved lemon is typically found in Moroccan tagines and in Ayurvedic cuisine as a remedy for stomach issues and goes as far back to 18th century England. Adding preserved lemons to a recipe is like adding a pop of color to your finished dish, chopped up pieces of the lemon rind will add such a nice flare to salad dressing, soups, pesto, sauces, baked chicken, or fish dishes and beyond. I love adding small pieces of preserved lemon to many savory recipes for that special umami surprise when one would not expect it.
