Preserved Meyer Lemon is the unleaded oomph in everyday meals.

Rub it on meat and fish before grilling, vegetables before roasting. Spoonable in one step, it's the base for dressings, marinades and cocktails.

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

Taste the Paste

We make If & When in California with local Meyer lemons grown on organic, family-owned farms; 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 five years before puréeing into a paste.
