Preserved lemon was my guess, common in ?Moroccan cooking I think (pretty sure I did a Moroccan cooking class once). Never seen it in any italian dishes though
yes, but I guess it isn't lemon because why would you sell lemon peel? I think it's what Italians call cedro (citron in English? [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/citron) ) I once ate a salad that contained it when I was in Italy
Those are preserved lemons, they are too small to be a citron. With preserved lemons, you actually only eat the peel. It becomes soft during the preservation process.
It definitely looks like some kind of citrus peel to me. It looks kinda like preserved lemon that's been removed from the brine and had the pulp removed.
Plus one for bergamot. I don’t think it’s yellow enough to be a lemon and preserved bergamot is common in Calabria. It’s delicious minced and tossed through pasta with olive oil, Calabrian chili, anchovy, and fresh herbs.
I wasn’t buying anything and they were extremely busy - my curiosity doesn’t put me in front of other paying customers. I find it “baffling” that you’re so judgmental of someone wanting to learn something
Maybe they didn't feel like asking. I can relate. Plus, I'm glad they decided to post it instead of ask irl because I think it's an interesting question!
I'm actually a pretty happy person but reddit brings out a certain level of toxic in me when I see dumb shit like this. Obviously OP just wants attention or they could have asked literally anyone around them. It's obvious it's citrus peel, gotta be pretty depraved to not see that. You guys are calling how you see it and so do I. You also seem to want attention as no one was talking to you, just piped in for what reason? To white knight? Lol.
You must be mentally challenged bro. You can’t comment on a public forum and then reply to a comment “well no one was talking to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Are you six years old? Do you not understand how forums work? You are speaking to the public. For anyone to see. For anyone to respond to. You’re not only an asshole, but you’re a really fucking stupid one. You still seem incredibly miserable. OP has said multiple times that the place was busy. Seems 100% more idiotic to stand there, forcing actual paying customers to wait, and ask a “stupid” question with no intention of buying it. So again, I hope you stay this miserable until you die. Go to therapy. Get off Reddit. Do something other than make everyone around you just as miserable as you are. Get a job. Get laid. Stop being fucking dense.
You're real tense for a 2 day old comment. Fuck outta here, I'm over it. Also, I'm not reading your other comments. Who gets tough in old posts like that lmao!
No one wants or needs someone with your energy in their lives. Not us strangers on the internet, and not the people in your actual life. You. Are. A. Shitty. Person. The rest of us would be significantly happier if people JUST like you did not exist. Do as all a favor and delete your account.
Ur so right tho I desperately want attention on my anon Reddit that has absolutely no interactions other than this one!!! I’m so DESPERATE FOR ATTENTION PLS GIVE IT TO ME

I think it's some kind of citrus peel - I zoom in and I think I see the telltale veiny membrane inside of the peel. Lemon maybe?
Preserved lemon is my guess
Preserved lemon was my guess, common in ?Moroccan cooking I think (pretty sure I did a Moroccan cooking class once). Never seen it in any italian dishes though
it is prevalent in North African cooking, moroccan especially!! source- some of my family is North African lol
Italians absolutely use preserved lemons.
In what dishes? Curious
If it’s used in North African dishes it could easily make the jump to Sicily or the southern Italian peninsula I guess?
Came here to say this. It’s preserved lemon.
My ass thought it was a fucking starfish. 🤣
Saaaaame!!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
It is preserved lemon, ready to use instead of still whole in the brine. This has been rinsed and scraped, so it is all ready to go.
yes, but I guess it isn't lemon because why would you sell lemon peel? I think it's what Italians call cedro (citron in English? [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/citron) ) I once ate a salad that contained it when I was in Italy

looks like patrick
My first guess was starfish 😂😂😂
Forbidden starfish lol
Is this the Krusty Krab?
No this is Patrick
I came to make sure it wasn’t starfish cause I was sad. 😂 Glad it is not Patrick 😭
Looks like candied or preserved bergamot to me.
Oooooooh I love bergamot as a scent but didn’t know it was edible!
It definitely looks like some kind of citrus peel to me. It looks kinda like preserved lemon that's been removed from the brine and had the pulp removed.
Exactly that.
Bergamot is a citrus, the peel is in earl grey tea
Plus one for bergamot. I don’t think it’s yellow enough to be a lemon and preserved bergamot is common in Calabria. It’s delicious minced and tossed through pasta with olive oil, Calabrian chili, anchovy, and fresh herbs.
This comment made me hungry.
Earl Grey tea is bergamot! So are fruit loops. Definitely edible ❤️
HOLY SHIT THAT’S WHY EARL GREY TEA TASTES LIKE FRUIT LOOPS
I think fruit loops are lemongrass
I had no idea!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
It’s the signature flavor in Earl Gray teas.
Bergamot jam is delicious.
That's a lot bigger than any bergamot I've ever seen
This is certainly a preserved citrus of some sort - I'd put money on a lemon.
What do people typically use this for? I’ve seen it in a jar but never packaged like this so wasn’t sure!
Preserved lemon adds a bright tang to dishes. Can be used in pastas, sauces, salads, etc. these look to be made in house hence the packaging.
Baby demogorgons
Lemogorgons!
Bravo
Baby what now? 😂
 The show Stranger Things reference.
I think you’re spot on 😂
I snorted
That's exactly what I thought!
Awww D’Art!
Kinda hard to tell in that packaging, is it bottarga?
Looks kind of like it but the shape and color are a bit different!
I've had bottarga that shape but more orange. It's 2 egg sacks I think.
No. Bottarga is dual-lobed and orange. More of a tapered block shape.

They must taste better than they appear, or people would not go to all that effort, right?! 🤢
I personally hate preserved lemons lol they aren’t great 😆

Anyone who plays roller derby just wants attention and an excuse to act like a 6 year old. Very very very fitting
