Top tips: How to use Belazu Beldi preserved lemons

Salty and lightly acidic, Belazu’s small, fine-skinned, preserved lemons retain an intense lemon flavour and fragrance, juicy texture and an appealing yellow colour.

They are a traditional ingredient in North African cuisine, where preserved lemons are a key flavouring, used to add a subtle yet distinctive citrus note to tagines and relishes.

Here are the top tips from Belazu on how to use their Belazu preserved lemons:

· For the ultimate juicy roast chicken, half stuff a chicken and roast

· Chop and stir into Freekeh for a zesty stuffing

· For a quick Summer salad, slice finely and mix with tomatoes and fresh herbs

· An essential for any tagine, just throw in!
