Organic Recipe Friday: Pickled Lemon Slices

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I know, it sounds weird, right? But trust me, there’s nothing better to garnish a summer drink than a slice of sweet/sour/salty pickled lemon slice. And if you’ve got left over organic lemons from the last recipe, why not try it? The best part about this garnish is that you can eat the pickled lemon slices rind and all! In fact, I’ve been known to pickle the lemon rinds on their own and eat them right out of the jar — maybe you’re not as daring as I am but at least give the whole pickled lemon slices a try, okay?

Ingredients

• 8 lemons, sliced into circles
• 32 ounces lemon juice
• 1 cup salt (kosher)
• 1 cup sugar

Method

1. Mix the lemon juice, salt and sugar in a pot.
2. Bring to a boil, and let cook to about body temp.
3. Add the lemon slices to a largish tupperware container, and pour the brine over them.
4. Refrigerate for at least one week.
