  2. Slice some for 2 jars about 3/8 an inch. Slice one jar into quarters but not all the way through. Pack with a tablespoon of salt for each quartered lemon. Pack them into the pint jars. Salt the slices getting salt in between each salt.

  4. Place in a canning pot with a rack in bottom. Process for 60 minutes keeping water 1-2 inches above the tallest jar. Let cool on a towel away from drafts for 24 hours. I covered mine with a kitchen towel. Check the lids to make sure the sealed before storing. Store these for 2 months before using to cure. I hope you enjoy!!!
