LEMON ZEST

    The citrusy zing of the outer covering of lemon makes for a nice addition to cakes, biscuits, soufflés and other desserts. It’s easy to get. Take the peels left over after making juice. Use a fine grater and make sure you remove the bright yellow zest only. Avoid the white pith, part which is bitter. Zest can be used in combination with other herbs such as mint, basil, rosemary, thyme and parsley.
