Ingredients

  • 5 cups kosher salt
  • 5 tablespoons sugar
  • 6 lemons, scrubbed and quartered

Steps

  1. In a large bowl, mix the salt with the sugar. Toss the lemons with half of the sugar-salt. Pour a small layer of sugar-salt into a clean quart-size jar. Layer the lemons in the jar, covering them with the remaining sugar-salt as you go. Refrigerate the lemons for at least 2 weeks. To use, rinse the lemons well and use the peel only.
