Everybody has squeezed a lemon for juice or a dish and then carelessly thrown away the rind. But these peels, which we assumed were useless, conceal a surprising culinary gem: handmade lemon powder. This easy, cost-effective, and distinctive approach will give your dishes and desserts a little extra zing. Are you prepared to find this fragrant treasure?
What is the purpose of using lemon powder in cooking?
Imagine an ingredient that complements your savory dishes and soft desserts, that comes in a little jar, and that smells like summer. That’s precisely what lemon powder provides. Made from dried and finely ground lemon zest, it adds a vibrant, fresh scent that works well in a variety of dishes.
Reusing the peels is also a great way to reduce food waste and make the most of every centimeter of our lemons, especially if they are grown organically.
How can I prepare my own powdered lemon?
