Cooking with lemon goes far beyond just using the juice. The zest of a lemon is a great way to add lemon flavor to a dish without adding extra moisture or acidity. Both of these elements can wreak havoc on certain types of foods, like green vegetables — the moisture can interfere with browning (especially when roasting) and the acid can kill the green color. For other things, like dips, spreads, and oil-based sauces (think pesto), you want to avoid watering down the finished product. Lemon zest brings all the flavor to your dish without messing with the consistency and texture.
If you're not sure how to start using lemon zest in your cooking, there are tons of great recipes to spark your creativity. Vegetables, marinades, and even desserts can all benefit from this zesty boost. When cooking with it, just remember it can dry out quickly, so only zest right before adding it to your dish.
