Les Moulins Mahjoub
Organic Tunisian Preserved Lemon Slices
These organic preserved lemon slices by Les Moulins Mahjoub come in a 5.3 oz (150 g) glass jar and are prepared using traditional salt-curing methods.
A staple of North African cooking, preserved lemons are as essential to the Tunisian kitchen as harissa and couscous. The lemons are slowly cured to soften the rind and concentrate their flavor, resulting in a bright, deeply aromatic citrus with a savory, almost umami-rich edge.
Serve alongside baked fish, or chop and add to chicken with olives, fragrant tagines, or salad dressings. They are especially well-suited to dishes like chicken thighs with preserved lemon or stirred into hummus for a subtle citrus lift.
