A good, simple winter dish, if you happen to be one of those virtuous people with a jar of preserved lemons in the fridge. And why shouldn't you be? Preserved lemons are ridiculously easy, and you have the further benefit of wallowing in self-satisfaction every time you look at the jar... From The New York Times Magazine

2 heads garlic 2 tbsps olive oil 1 lb fettucine 1 preserved lemon, finely chopped 1/2 cup grated parmesan 3 tbsp chopped parsley Black pepper 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 2.
