About me: I love cooking, I love eating, I love discovering new recipes. I have so many cookbooks I sometimes lose track of which recipe is where - though this site helps a bit. I have gone low-carb in 2010, so that's different recipes to explore again. This also means I may not agree with my own reviews anymore if they were written in 2009 or before. ------------------ I have a lovely husband and ten-year old twins who also love eating. ----------------- You can also find me on LibraryThing, BookMooch and EatYourBooks, using the same handle.

Favorite cookbook: The Complete Meze Table by Rosamond Man

Favorite recipe: Melissa Clark's Roasted Broccoli with Shrimp

Salt & Pepper

Lovely on hard-boiled eggs - delivers loads of flavor and a bit of crunch.

These are not bad, but not very special either. Just nice pickled vegetables.

I think I used this recipe, but by the time I actually used my lemons I wasn't sure which one of my recipes it was anymore. I think there was some coriander on the bottom of the jar so it probably was this one.

But they were good. I will preserve lemons again.

ETA: used this recipe to preserve limes May 2015. Hope I remember what recipe it was now.
