Perpetual Pickle (How to Use Leftover Lemons)
Ingredients
  • 2 organic lemons, sliced (thin-skinned/meyer lemons are ideal but not necessary)
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp organic cane sugar
  • 1 tsp Carom Seeds (Ajwain)(I am using thyme leaves instead)
Instructions
  1. Cut lemons in half and squeeze out all the juice into an air-tight glass jar.
  2. Slice lemon and place those pieces into the jar.
  3. Add salt, sugar and carom seeds.
  4. Shake jar and store in pantry - stir every now and then.
  5. Continue to add lemon, lemon juice and spices as needed.
Notes
You can start eating this pickle after two weeks but it’ll taste better the longer it ages. Keep refilling whenever you have extra lemon and stir the jar every now and then. Make sure to always coat the lemons with juice, sugar and salt.
limes work too!
If you don't like the taste of carom seeds, you can make this with just salt/sugar.
Make sure you eat this pickle as a condiment - in moderation. A small spoonful before or alongside a heavy meal will go a long way.
