About Pickled lemons
Pickled lemons are a tangy, flavorful condiment widely used in North African, Middle Eastern, and Indian cuisines. Traditionally made by preserving lemons in a mixture of salt, water, and sometimes spices like chili, cinnamon, or bay leaves, they develop a soft, intensely aromatic profile over time. Nutritionally, pickled lemons retain some of the vitamin C and citric acid found in fresh lemons, boosting immune health and aiding digestion. The fermentation process can also promote gut health by supporting beneficial bacteria. However, they are often high in sodium due to the heavy use of salt, which may not be ideal for those on a low-sodium diet or with high blood pressure. Pickled lemons add a vibrant zest to dishes ranging from tagines and salads to marinades and sauces, offering a bold mix of health benefits and rich culinary tradition.
