Preserved Beldi Lemons!
Amazing versatility is this lemon!
To make preserved lemons is easy. Salt, lemons, time.
Preserved lemons are a wonderful go-to addition to any recipe. Use them as a topping, an ingredient, or as a taste-changer. Anywhere you would use a regular lemon, you can use a preserved one for more punch and flavor. This intense concentration of flavor goes beyond just a lemon; it releases an explosion of flavor in your mouth!
The combination of salt, lemon, and time creates a flavor bomb when combined with chicken, for instance, bringing out the best in your poultry. Similar to sardines, another flavor enhancer bomb, it might not immediately appeal to all your senses, but once you incorporate a preserved lemon into your next dish, you might just discover a new love.
We like the Belazu Beldi Preserved Lemons because they are small, whole, and round like little globes. Smaller than a golf ball, they have a very thin skin that is easy to cut and chew. When used as a garnish, they look cute and gorgeous, elevating the presentation of any dish!
You can either make your own preserved lemons or try the Belazu Beldi Preserved Lemons. Preserved lemons are the ultimate combination of sourness, saltiness, and bitterness—a true flavor bomb!
