Sterilize the jars in the oven at 150Fahrenheit. Boil the water for the lids, when boiling add lids boiling for 3 minutes. Leave in hot water. Wash the lemons. Remove the wooden stems if any.
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.
Dissolve the salt into the lemon juice and bring to a boil. Add lemon juice to a half an inch below the rim. Add the lids make sure to wipe the rims before adding.
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!!!
