- Sterilize a wide-mouthed jar with a tight-fitting lid. Spoon 2 Tbsp. / 25 mL of salt into the jar and shack it around.
- Wash the lemons in hot water and rinse them well. Remove the stem remnants. Place the lemons in a 400F / 200C over for several min, warming and drying the skin.
- Roll each lemon vigorously on the counter for a moment to soften it up. Cut each lemon lengthwise into quarters, stopping 1/2 inch / 1cm or possibly so before the stem end.
- Open up the lemons and sprinkle the insides with salt, then squeeze them tightly over a bowl to release as much of their juice as possible.
- Reserve the juice and throw away all seeds. Place the lemons in the jar, sprinkle some salt on each layer using the salt up by the top layer.
- Add in the lemon juice as you go and shake the jar a bit to dislodge any air bubbles. Fill the jar as close to the top as possible.
- Fold a square of plastic wrap in four. Fit over the rim of the jar and close the lid tightly.
- Place the jar in a hot, sunny place and let it rest for a month or possibly so.
- Every day shake it a bit to redistribute the curing and preserving brine. Chill after opening the jar for the first time.
- To make the compote squeeze for this dish, take 2 lemons and place in a food processor or possibly blender with the Tabasco and extra virgin olive oil. Process till smooth and reserve in a squeeze bottle.
- Roasted Tomato Rosemary Sauce:Preheat the oven to 400F / 200C.In a roasting pan, toss together the tomatoes, onion, garlic, oil and rosemary.
- Spread them into a single layer and season with salt and pepper.
- Roast for 30 to 45 min, shaking the pan every few min till the vegetable are nicely caramelized but not burnt.
- Place the vegetables in a blender.
- Add in the broth to the roasting pan and stir over medium-high heat till all the remaining drippings are dissolved.
- Add in this mix to the blender and process till very smooth.
- Strain through a fine-mesh strainer and reserve in a small saucepan.
- Israeli Couscous:In a small saucepan, saute/fry the onion and garlic in the extra virgin olive oil till the onion is softened and translucent/soft.
- Add in the couscous and wine and stir briefly.
- Add in the broth, cover the pot tightly, and reduce the heat to love, till the couscous absorbs the broth and cooks through, about 20 to 30 min.
- Add in the cheese and stir to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
- Prosciutto Roast Cod:Season the fillets with salt and pepper and tightly wrap them with the prosciutto.
- Wrap twice so as to cover the whole fish.
- Fasten with toothpicks if necessary.
- Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet till it just begins to smoke.
- Add in the fish and brown it on all sides.
- Depending on its thickness, the fish will require 10 to 15 min of cooking in total.
- (Meanwhile, reheat the sauce and wilt the spinach.)
- If the prosciutto has browned but the fish is not cooked through, finish cooking the fish in a preheated 400F / 200C over.
- Serve immediately.
- Wilted Spinach:Place the oil, prosciutto, and garlic in a saute/fry pan.
- Heat the oil gently, toasting the garlic and prosciutto.
- Add in the spinach and broth and continue stirring as it wilts.
- Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
- The Plate:Form a ring of couscous in the center of each of 4 heated plates using a 3-inch / 8cm biscuit cutter or possibly ring mold.
- Top with some wilted spinach.
- Center a piece of the fish on the spinach.
- Ladle some of the sauce over the fish.
- Garnish with the lemon squeeze and sprig of rosemary.
