Few people know that zest can be added not only to baked goods, but also to fish and meat dishes, as well as vegetables and even cocktails.
However, it is not always possible to buy high-quality oranges and lemons in the store when the need for this ingredient arises.
Instead of frantically searching the city for the citrus fruits you need to prepare a particular dish, you can stock up on powder made from fruit peels.
All you need to do is not throw away the peel, but dry it and then grind it using a coffee grinder.
The grinding can be either fine or coarse – you can adjust this option yourself, depending on your own taste preferences.
This citrus powder turns out to be unusually fragrant.
It should be stored in a jar (preferably glass) with a tightly closed lid.
If you decide to prepare citrus powder according to this recipe, rest assured that it will retain its color and aroma for a long time, which it will impart to the prepared dish.
