Step 1
Cut the lemons in half, squeeze out and reserve the juice.
Step 2
Scoop out the insides and, if the lemons are large, cut the halves into two.
Step 3
Put them into salted water for 24 hours, then boil as many times as necessary in fresh, clean water to remove all bitterness and make them soft.
Step 4
Drain, then boil them again in the lemon juice for a couple of minutes.
Step 5
Add the rest of the ingredients, leave to cool, then place in clean, dry jars and screw on the lids ready to store.
Step 6
The lemon peels should always be covered by lemon juice in the jars, so add extra lemon juice if required.
