Preserved doqq lemons are an authentic, and essential, component of many North African, Mediterranean, and Indian recipes.
These traditional doqq lemons (Citrus limonum Risso var. pusilla R), known in Morocco as citron beldi, or l'hamd beldi, grow in the Taroudant region outside of Agadir.
The thinner skin, and fragrant aroma, of doqq lemons makes them the most highly prized lemons of North Africa. Paula Wolfert, an expert on Moroccan cuisine, considers them the crème de la crème in her book "The Food of Morocco".
These lemons have a delicate "zing", along with a tantalizing sweet and sour aroma, that is unmistakably and evocatively North African.
A few serving ideas:
They are so easy to incorporate into your recipes, simply give them a quick rinse under cool water to remove any excess salt, and then chop them up... you use the entire lemon, rind and all!
Note: preserving the lemons in salt removes the bitterness normally associated with the rind and pith... what you will find is a clean, bright, pure lemon flavor! Take a slice, pop it in your mouth, and see how magical preserved lemons can be!

Rose petals are one of over fourteen (14) spices added to give this Belazu Rose Harissa paste its complex and spicy taste. Harissa was originally a staple of Tunisian cooking but now it is used throughout North Africa as a seasoning. The rose petals provide a counter point to the chili heat, adding a richness and complexity you are sure to enjoy.
Harissa is perfect for adding to traditional North African tagines, and for stirring into couscous. However, this is such an extremely versatile product so do not restrict its use to only traditional North African recipes. You can use it as an added seasoning like salt and pepper to add complexity to your meals, and as a dip for bread, crackers, and vegetables.

In Morocco, one of the most popular dishes is Moroccan fish. As the base for our fish tagine simmering sauce we use the delicious chermoula, Morocco’s all-purpose marinade, made with aromatic herbs (cilantro, parsley) and spices (paprika, cumin, turmeric). Lemon and ginger are added for brightness and complexity, cayenne provides a bit of heat, and tomato intensifies the richness of the sauce.
Fish tagine is traditionally prepared with carrots, potatoes, bell peppers, and olives. Any firm fish, such as salmon, red snapper, or cod, is ideal. Serve with couscous, rice, or crusty bread to scoop up every bite of the wonderful sauce.
