Flavour dressings and tagines with tangy preserved lemons. Terre Exotique sources Beldi lemons from Morocco and preserves them in salt. They are larger and more fragrant than regular lemons.

The lemons can be finely chopped to add to stews and lentil soups. You can use the peel and juice in marinades and vinaigrettes. Preserved lemons have a bright, citrusy taste with floral notes of bergamot.

Try this recipe for roast veg and grain salad with preserved lemon dressing. Enjoy it on its own or as a side dish for poached salmon.

Use preserved lemons in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern recipes. They’re wonderful in a traybake with chicken thighs and olives. The tangy flavour works well in dips with yoghurt and fresh herbs. You can use the peel to garnish risotto and seafood spaghetti.

Store in a cool and dry place, away from direct light. Refrigerate in its brine and consume within 10 days.

About Terre Exotique

Terre Exotique works directly with hundreds of specialist farmers and producers around the world – to bring the very best peppers, spices and salts to our tables. The company was founded by Erwann de Kerros, a Breton and seasoned traveller. After tasting pepper in the Penja plantation in Cameroon, Kerros yearned to try other specialist peppers and spices – and Terre Exotique was born.

The company works closely with farmers to preserve natural habitats, and to ensure a sustainable income for local communities. Each spice is carefully packed in pouches – the opaque packaging preserves the flavours and aroma of your spice, by protecting them from sunlight. So the ingredients stay at their best for longer.
