Preserved Lemon

Morocco’s Secret Ingredient

Preserved lemon is one of the most iconic flavours of Moroccan cooking.

At Zee’s Love in a Jar, we preserve fresh lemons the traditional way  with salt, herbs, spices, and time creating a bright, tangy ingredient that transforms everyday meals.

This is the same flavour used for generations in Moroccan tagines and slow-cooked family feasts.
