Hacks & Hints

Rub Preserved Meyer Lemon Paste on meat and fish before grilling, vegetables before roasting.

It's the base for soups, dressings and marinades; and an essential baking and cocktail ingredient that moonlights as a cheese pairing.

"I use it the lazy way. I put a dollop of it on the side of just about everything. Tonight was a piece of roasted salmon." - Teresa

Recipes

Taste the Paste

We make If & When in California in small batches with local Meyer lemons grown on organic, family-owned farms; sea salt, spices and love.

A zero-waste product, we cure the entire lemon - skin, seeds and all - and barrel-age the citrus for up to three years before puréeing into a paste.

Save time. Eliminate ingredients.

So much easier than using whole preserved lemons - this could be your new kitchen secret weapon.
