Directions

To Make Pickled Lemon

1. In a large bowl, mix the vinegar with enough water to fill ¾ of the bowl. Wash the lemons in the water, then rinse under running water.
2. Slice the lemons lengthwise into 4 segments without cutting all the way through.
3. Rinse a jar with boiled water to sterilise. Add ½ tsp salt to the bottom of the jar.
4. Rub ½ tsp salt into the lemon. Place the lemon into the jar, pressing down to spread out the quartered lemon and to squeeze out some of the juice. Sprinkle another ½ tsp salt over the lemon.
5. Repeat with remaining lemons until jar is full. Pour in boiled water to cover the lemons. Rotate jar to dissolve salt.
6. Leave to pickle for 3 weeks, rotating the jar a few times every day.
