persian sweet lemons

posted in: food 1

couldn’t help but notice a large pile of “iranian sweet lemons” outside a middle eastern store today (strangely they were all individually wrapped in little plastic bags), so I bought one to try at home.

unlike a lemon, there is no acidity at all (even less than in an orange)… and it’s not very sweet, but rather delicate tasting. refreshing!

    Akhavan (in Montreal) gets these from time to time… I tried them once, and they were refreshing, but without a lot of flavour. Very subtle.
