Les Moulins Mahjoub Organic Preserved Lemons, 7oz

Petite Tunisian lemons enhanced with a touch of mild red pepper. Their intense, concentrated citrus flavor adds brightness and depth to grilled fish, hearty stews, rice, and chicken.

An iconic ingredient in Tunisian cuisine, these lemons are certified organic, traditionally farmed and prepared without additives. Both the rind and the pith can be used, making them a versatile addition to your Mediterranean pantry.

Why We Love Them

These lemons bring a welcome contrast to rich, savory dishes, while mild red pepper adds another layer of flavor. A little goes a long way, turning a familiar pot of rice or a simple fish dinner into an opportunity to explore Tunisian cooking.

How to Use Preserved Lemons

Cut the lemons into thin slices or finely chop the rind and pith. Serve alongside grilled or baked fish, stir into stews and rice, or use them in the classic combination of chicken with olives and preserved lemon.

For an easy dressing, combine finely chopped preserved lemon with olive oil and fresh herbs, then spoon over cooked vegetables or fish. Start with a small amount and adjust to taste—the citrus flavor is concentrated.
