Dried Lemon Zest
Dried lemon zest is the dehydrated outer peel of lemons, prized for its concentrated citrus aroma and oil-rich flavor without the acidity of lemon juice. This shelf-stable form retains the fruit’s essential oils and bright, tangy notes, making it a versatile seasoning for baked goods, rubs, and dressings where fresh zest may be impractical. The drying process intensifies its floral bitterness while eliminating moisture, allowing it to infuse dishes evenly.
