Lemon Pesto
Organic Meyer Lemon Tapenade was developed by Pretty Pickle Company as a special request from a local chef in Salem. Organic Meyer lemons come from Lemon Ladies Orchards in California. The brined, preserved lemon rinds are pureed with a drizzle of pure olive oil. It is light and less salty than most preserved lemons. Tapenade is easy to spread on fish and chicken for baking or to saute as it forms good pan juices and imparts that great lemony flavor. A teaspoon added to tartar sauce or cocktail sauce zips the flavor without the mess of zesting or squeezing a lemon. Add a tablespoon to your recipe for a savory pot pie crust or herbed breads. Add some to your pasta primavera to add to that fresh taste. If you love lemon flavors, you will see the possibilities. Nice to have on hand for the next idea.
