Moroccan preserved lemons

[Phteven]

I've just been googling around a bit and the Jamie Oliver recipe says wax free lemons. Your best bet for them might be an organic store or farmer's market or jump the fence of a garden with a nice fruitful tree (you could ask but that's not as exciting as midnight fruit theft).
His recipe also calls for squeezing lemon over the lemons.

I've got these guys down pat now.
I just use a new scotch brite and give the lemons a quick rub and a rinse to get the wax off.

I'm kind of addicted to lamb & lemon tajine now.

I have preserved my own lemons as well.It was my first time and they turned out great,i actually added chilli to it so they are spicy as well.Seeing as my DH is moroccan i cook alot of moroccan food and they get used quite a bit.
