Organic Preserved Lemon Slices – Moulins Mahjoub
1. What are preserved lemons?
Preserved lemons are lemons that have been cured in salt and their own natural juices over time, developing a soft texture and an intense, fragrant citrus flavour. Unlike fresh lemons, which offer sharp acidity, preserved lemons bring a mellow tang, gentle saltiness and deep umami that instantly elevates both hot and cold dishes. These organic preserved lemon slices from Moulins Mahjoub are bright, bold and beautifully aromatic — a delicious way to add a burst of Mediterranean sunshine to everyday cooking.
2. How are preserved lemons made?
Grown on the Mahjoub family farm in northern Tunisia, the lemons are hand-harvested at peak ripeness and traditionally preserved in brine. Using simple, time-honoured methods, the fruit is sliced, salted and left to mature slowly, developing rich flavour without any additives or artificial preservatives. The convenient sliced format allows easy portioning and simple storage once opened.
3. How to use them?
Preserved lemons are wonderfully versatile and a little goes a long way. Finely chop or thinly slice the rind and stir into salads, couscous, pasta, grain bowls, roasted vegetables or creamy dressings. Add to tagines, grilled fish, sandwiches or mezze platters for an aromatic lift. They also pair beautifully with chicken, chickpeas, herbs, olive oil and a touch of chilli or harissa.
