    The rind of a lemon.


    ""

    The very outer portion of a citrus fruit, the colored part only....

    You can get the convenience form as a jar of dried zest of lemon or orange at the spice isle of the store.  It really does add freshness to a dish, great in cheesecake!

    Lemon zest is the yellow portion of the lemon rind. Do not include the white as it will make it bitter.
