I preserved a jar of lemons a few weeks ago and figured they should be ready so opened the jar today to check on the end result. I had put some spices in the jar along with olive oil to top it off. The lemons felt very mushy and oily, I wondered if the olive oil helped to make this tastier or actually took away from the end result of the preserved lemons. I guess what i'm wondering is, what affect the olive oil had on the process of preserving the lemons? Any ideas?


Kitchen Experiments: Preserving Lemons
4/19/11 8:21 PM

I made a move from NYC to LA last summer. Finding affordable and reliable movers was a daunting task. I put my information into an online mover's website for a callback and got like 50 calls from different companies. Everyone wants you to talk them through what you have and quote you. I got quotes from $1000 - $5000, each trying to discredit the other. I forgot how much space I paid for but basically I had 1 bedroom, 1/2 living room, and a kitchen to ship.

Finally I found a number for Ben Hur moving who offered to send someone to my apartment for a quote. I accepted. We went through everything and he quoted me $1200 for everything, including packing anything I wanted packed.

The people on both ends did a really, really super job. I was really impressed. Everyone was curteous and went the extra distance to make sure nothing was broken or scratched.

Ben Hur Moving
They were located in Queens, I don't have the number but you should be able to find them easily.
