orange zest
Marmalade flavor source
Orange zest is the outermost layer of orange peel, grated or scraped into fine shreds for cooking and baking.
It contains aromatic oils that deliver intense citrus flavor without the bitterness of the white pith beneath.
Recipes call for it in desserts, marinades, and cocktails: Add a teaspoon of orange zest to the batter.
