1. Wash and dry 7 or 8 of the lemons. Partially cut through them from top to bottom to make four attached wedges.
2. Generously fill the crevices of the cut lemons with salt. No need to measure the salt, just use a rough tablespoon or so.
3. Squeeze the salted lemons shut and pack them into the jar. Wedge them in as tightly as possible so they can't move around. Some juice will be released in the process.Close the jar and set aside for a few days. The lemons will slightly soften and more juice will be released.
4. After that time, add as many more salted lemons as will fit into the jar. (This can be repeated in a few days if room allows.) Be sure the lemons are so tight that they won't dislodge as they soften.When the jar is as full as it can be with tightly packed lemons, add some salt to the top of the jar. If all lemons aren't submerged in liquid, top them off with fresh lemon juice.

1. Wash and scrub the lemons to remove any dirt from the skin. Score into quarters and rub each section with salt.
2. Squeeze into your canning jars (I fit two lemons in each 4 oz jar) and pack with more salt. Fill with lemon juice, leaving about 1 inch of space for air at the top of the jar.
3. Let sit in the fridge for a month or until the skin is soft and can be easily punctured with a butter knife. Use in sauces, marinades and with roasted dishes!

1. Sterilise glass canning jar by filling it with boiling water and letting it stand for tenminutes in the sink, then drain.
2. Sprinkle a few teaspoons to a tablespoon of salt in the sterilised glass jar. Set aside.
3. Wash lemons and pat dry, slice one nub off the end. Cut the lemon into quarters or sixths depending on the size, from the sliced end downwards – but stop short of cutting all the way through. This keeps the lemons in-tact.
4. Open up the lemon segments and spoon in about 2-3 teaspoons of sea salt into the centre,then squish the segments together. Repeat! (Note: if you’re making a largebatch, and this feel time consuming – don’t worry about keeping your lemonsintact, add salt to a bowl and toss the segments in there to coat).

1. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sea salt in the bottom of the jar. Quarter 1 lemon, slicing down from the stem end down to the tip but not all the way through so the quarters stay attached to each other. The lemon will look like a claw. Coat the pulp with sea salt and press it down into the jar, squeezing out the juice. Sprinkle a little more salt on top.
2. Repeat with as many lemons as will fit in the jar. Pour some fresh lemon juice on top to cover the lemons, leaving a little headspace in the jar, then seal it.
3. Keep the jar in a warm, dark place (pantry or cupboard) for 30 days. Turn the jar upside once a day to distribute the juice and salt, then sit it back on the shelf. When ready to use, remove a lemon or a slice and rinse it well. Make sure the lemons in the jar stay covered by the juice and salt, and they will keep for up to 6 months.
