Ingredients

4 large lemons (organic is best, since you will be eating the peel)

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, toasted

1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, toasted

1 small bay leaf

Directions

  1. Preparing the lemons: Scrub the lemons with water. Take the ends off. Slice the lemons lengthwise, in thirds. Take out the seeds. Cut up the lemons into 1-inch pieces.

  2. Combining the ingredients: Toss together the salt, sugar, toasted cinnamon, toasted coriander, and the bay leaf. Add the lemons, making sure to include the juice, and mix up everything together.
