Method
Step 1 of 3
Slice the ends off each lemon and stand them on one end. Using a small, sharp knife, carefully make 2 vertical cuts three-quarters of the way through each lemon, as if cutting into quarters, but keep the bases intact. Stuff 1 tablespoon of the salt into each lemon, then pack into a large sterilized jar and seal tightly. Store in a cool place for 3-4 days to soften the skins.
Step 2 of 3
Press the lemons down into the jar until tightly packed, then cover with the lemon juice. Seal the jar and store in a cool place for at least 1 month before using. Use within for 3-4 months.
Step 3 of 3
When ready to use, rinse off the salt and pat dry with kitchen paper. Cut the lemon into quarters and, using a small, sharp knife, remove the flesh, seeds and pith. Finely slice or chop the rind and use as required.
