Optional Safi Mixture: 1 cinnamon stick 3 cloves 5 to 6 coriander seeds 3 to 4 black peppercorns 1 bay leaf can be added in between layers of lemons.The addition of olive oil to act as a sealant on top of the lemons but is not necessary.,Thank you Rita for a very easy recipe. I obviously can’t review the taste of them yet. But I’m certain I will really enjoy having these preserved lemons because I absolutely love salted lemons and eat fresh slices sprinkled with salt often. Made for ZWT #6 – 2010
