Ground Lemon Peel 150g

description

Ground lemon peel has a fruity, sour aroma with a slightly tart note and is often used to refine baked goods such as cakes and cookies, dessert sauces and desserts as well as salad dressings.
Zest is an absolute must for making jam.

The peels of ripe lemons have numerous oil glands that give off an aromatic scent. The inner white layer is very bitter, so only the outer layer is used. In addition to apples, pectin is also extracted from lemons, an essential ingredient for gelling jams, marmalades and jellies. Dried and ground, lemon peel is an ideal accompaniment in the kitchen.

The lemon probably originated in India and is a cross between a bitter orange and a citron. Experts still disagree as to whether the Romans already cultivated lemons. The first confirmed evidence of its use comes from China and the Mediterranean region around the year 1000. The main countries of cultivation are India, Mexico and China, where almost 50% of the global harvest is grown.

Give salad dressings and steak sauces a fruity and tangy note with ground lemon peel. Ground lemon peel is an important ingredient in many cookies, cookies and cakes, especially at Christmas time. Whether almond cake or speculoos, ground lemon peel gives your baked goods a new taste experience. Spice up dessert sauces such as raspberry sauce or chocolate sauce with ground lemon peel.

Kitchen tip: Try chocolate muffins and add a heaped teaspoon of ground lemon peel to the batter.
