Dried Lemon Peel Cut

The lemon is a species of small evergreen tree in the flowering plant family Rutaceae. Native to South Asia, primarily North eastern India, the tree’s yellow fruit is uséd for culinary and non-culinary purposes throughout the world. Both the peel and juice can be uséd. The juice has both culinary and cleaning uses and is known for its bitter flavour, thanks to its 5% – 6% citric acid content and pH of around 2.2.

Dried lemon peel comes from the outer skin of the fruit. Packed with zesty flavour, the skin lies on top of the bitter-tasting pith, and the fruit itself can be used in a variety of forms. The peel can be cut into fine pieces or ribbons or even ground into a powder. Few people realise the peel is more nutritious than the fruit itself with higher levels of vitamins A and C, potassium, beta-carotene, magnesium and calcium.
