All,
I've always done my preserved lemons using Meyer lemons. However, we didn't get any this year due to the weather. Do regular thick-skinned lemons work OK?

Yes they do work fine, Fuzzy. Go for it.
I actually have a couple I should do too, from that last hurray of the AZ lemon trees. Then again, I adore having lemonade made with those homegrown lemons. Always a dilemma of choice...

Would love it if you would share how you use Preserved Lemons. I made some last year but never got around to suing them. Thanks Nancy

Nancy,
Like you, I didn't use mine up when I made them a couple years ago and haven't made themsince. But I did use some and liked them. I minced or chopped them and added to things like: pasta, potatoes, couscous, rice, tuna salad, green cooked veggies like beans, brussel sprouts, even in pot roast. I've put them in both hot versions and cold of pasta/potato dishes. They taste a lot like capers or salty olives so anywhere you'd put those, you can sub these lemons. I rinsed them a bit and used mostly just the peel but if you want sour, you can use some of the flesh too. Lots of options.
