Ingredients
  • * 1 lb. organic limes
  • * salt (about 2 tablespoons)
  • * olive oil (2-3 cups or mode depending on the jar's size)
  • * 2 or 3 cloves
  • * 1 bay leaf
  • * Jar with Lid

Directions
  1. Rinse the limes (whole, with their skin) and dry them with a paper towel.
  2. Slice the limes (about 1/2 cm or 1/4" thick). Place them in a colander. Sprinkle with salt and let them drain for 12 hours.
  3. Remove the excess salt by gently damping the lime slices with a paper towel.
  4. Place the slices in an air tight jar. Add the cloves and bay leaf. Pour olive oil until all the slices are fully sinked.
  5. Wait at least 1 week before using.
  6. *This preserve can be kept up to one year in the fridge, if the limes are organic.* *wink*
