Preserved lemon

Or salt cured lemon, are lemons that are preserved in salt brine for up to two months. This African condiment is a staple in Moroccan cooking. They can be very hard to find in the United States. The softened rind is chopped fine and added at the end of the cooking process. There are many recipes available for making your own preserved lemon.
