This sounds delicious! And hadn’t realised you were a Heals Heal! I used (a long LONG time ago) to live opposite a lovely woman whose family were also Heals - a journalist called Susie (I think her name was morgen). She wrote a book about being blown up in Nicaragua. Sorry, a bit of a random ramble without enough details to identify!!
And please keep up with smug-time. Am great fan of smug.
Am yet to make preserved lemons (one of my many food blind spots), but when I do, this will come in very handy. Mostly I'm just popping in to say I'm also a big fan of smug litanies and the Home Cooking podcast 🙌
We have fruit most of the year for occasional picking, but from January to April, the 2 trees are overloaded. I bet we will pick about 20-30 lbs today.
We are making lemonade for a weekend party. But I will use the zest to infuse a bottle of olive oil.
You've covered two of our most favorite things: preserved lemons and pottery! Looking forward to trying the preserved lemon soda.

Interesting! I will ask my father about her. He is the gatherer of multiply-removed cousins etc.
I love finding multiply removed cousins. Was once sitting round a table with someone I’d known for years and discovered we were cousins !

I’ve put up a batch of your preserved lemons today! Now to wait…
Wonderful read! My niece is stopping by today to help me harvest the abundance of lemons from our 90-year-old Meyer lemon trees.
You’ve got me inspired to try something new with those lemons!🍋
Thanks!
Thanks Julie! How many lemons do you get from your nonagenarian tree? What do you usually make with them?

I want to try lemon curd this time too.
