1Easylife Lemon Zester

IN TWO All lemon zesters are essentially created equal, other than the odd “gadget” variety that tries to reinvent the wheel, and fails more often than not.  This 1Easylife Lemon Zester has a nice storage loop and is very basic, simple, and not too expensive. WHAT DOES IT DO The peel of a lemon is where its essential oils, aka BIG FLAVOR, live. To get at them you zest the peel, a fine grating that takes the surface level off of the pith, the white stuff. To use it, you just scrape the side of a piece of citrus fruit over something to collect the zest. A ZEST FOR GREAT FOOD! Add citrus zest to sugars for great pop inside, and toppings of baked goods, like my blueberry lemon muffins. Zest can be used in all kinds of preparations, from a delicate Moroccan chicken broth with a floating of tangerine zest, to a little added flavor and texture in sorbets and gelatos, to the finishing touch on sous vide pork chop with a bourbon-citrus glaze.
