Ingredients

Juice of 1 pound of lemons plus 1 pound of lemons, scrubbed
3 cups kosher salt
Tightly Sealed Bucket/Jar

Directions

1

Make 2 perpendicular slices halfway down the long plane of each lemon so that it is partially quartered but still intact.
2

Salt each lemon liberally and place in a bucket, layering salt and lemons and packing them in tightly so that each lemon is in complete contact with salt.
3

Cover the top with salt and pour the lemon juice into the bucket.
4

Cover tightly and store for one month, flipping the bucket every week or so to ensure an even cure.
