Traditionally used to flavour couscous and tagines, Whole Preserved Lemon is a vital ingredient in the classic Moroccan braise, Chicken with Lemon and Olives. Whole Preserved Lemons are cured in a brine of coarse salt and lemon juice to produce a soft, mellow, deep lemony flavour in the peel. When finely chopped, the skin of the preserved lemons adds an exotic astringency to vinaigrettes. It makes a delicious flavour addition to marinades for grilled chicken or lamb or in a compound butter with coriander and harissa.
