@HudsonHawk, I know we talked about homemade limoncello recently, and now that my Meyer tree is covered in them, do you have a preferred recipe?
Basic average-to-bad gin is horrible, good-to-great gin is delicious.

This is the recipe I used. I used about 10 Meyer lemons to 750 ml of Everclear.

Will watch, do you prefer yours thicker, almost syrupy, or more like wine? I like 'em thick.
I like 'em thick too wait what are we talking about?
You should pickle some of the lemons Indian style. I did that a few years ago and they came out pretty good despite my having no idea what I was doing.

I like em thick too. As for my limoncello, it should be a liqueur consistency, so it should have some body. In between wine and syrup, I guess.

I made some lemon preserves a few years ago. It was pretty good. I’d make again. Never tried pickling.
Huehuehuehuehue.
I figured someone would hit that slow pitch softball.
I’ve done preserved lemons similar to this before, and they were great
Will try Indian ones, but this looks very different:
Yeah, I just found a recipe on the interwebs that called for ingredients I already had on hand.
Congrats to these guys in Johnson City, guess I’ll have to pick up a bottle next time I’m driving past

Thanks for sharing that. Jon’s daughter Kat is a somm down in SF. Really lovely young woman (who drinks far better than I do).

Small world!
The wine industry is perhaps the only career that’s more incestuous than working on Capitol Hill. It rarely approaches anything close to six degrees of separation.

According to a good friend who’s pretty famous in the world of gay porn, tops and bottoms are… complicated.
