Paper Scraps Vol 12 : Oranges And Lemons
- Orange and Lemon zest can be frozen for up to six months. It should be sealed in a plastic bag and stored in the freezer.
- One can obtain three to four teaspoons of grated zest from one medium sized orange.
- Orange and Lemon zest not only add flavour to dishes, they also serve as pretty decorations. Candied zest is made by boiling in sugar syrup and then laid out to dry. It is great sprinkled over cakes and muffins. Fresh zest looks sensational floating over fruit punch or a cocktail.
- Orange peel is also used to make fragrances and liquers such as Contrieau.
- One orange supplies you with enough Vitamin C to last you two and half days.
- Orange peel and pith are excellent sources of pectin and flavonoids. Pectin is a soluble fibre which helps lower cholesterol and flavonoids are potent anti-oxidants.
