Seasoning paste, quick to make

Wash the lemon thoroughly. Trim both ends and slice the lemon into thin slices. Remove the seeds. Place the lemon slices and salt in a food processor and grind to a fine paste. Pour the mixture into two hot, rinsed jars and refrigerate. Always scoop out a little from the jar with a clean spoon. The paste is suitable for seasoning anywhere a little acidity and salt are needed. Use 10g of salt for every 100g of lemon. Since nothing is sterilized, the paste may ferment slightly even in the refrigerator.
