This jar of Preserved Farmhouse Lemons is so beautifully presented you might hesitate to open it but please do.

Bella Cucina's Farmhouse Lemons are cut into ready to use wedges (as opposed to whole lemons in their Classic Preserved Lemons) packed in salt brine. Bella left the olives and the lemon leaves out so the Farmhouse lemons will stay yellow indefinately. Simply scrape out the flesh of the lemon with the blunt edge of a knife and chop the rind finely. Use the rind to flavor roasted asparagus, poultry, or fold it into your favorite pound cake recipe. Moroccan recipes sparkle with the addition of Bella's Farmhouse Lemons.

Tagliatelle with Fresh Fava Beans and Preserved Lemon Cream

• 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
• 6 ounces Preserved Lemon Cream
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
• Parmigiano-Reggiano shavings, for garnish
• 1 pound fava beans, shelled
• 1 pound tagliatelle or other pasta (choose a high-quality durum wheat pasta)

In a large pot, bring 4 quarts of salted water to a boil. Add the fava beans and cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Ladle the beans out of the water and set aside until they are cool enough to handle, then remove and discard their skins.

Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente. Meanwhile, in a large bowl mix together the lemon cream, mascarpone cheese, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth. When the pasta is cooked, drain and add to the bowl with the lemon cream mixture. Toss and serve, topped with Parmigiano-Reggiano shavings.

Note: If fresh fava beans are not available, try using dried fava beans which will need to be soaked or boiled ahead of time.
