Instructions

  1. Wash and dry the lemons. Carefully remove the zest from the lemons, using a serrated vegetable peeler. You want to remove only the bright yellow part, not the bitter white pith underneath.
  2. Put the sugar and the zest in a food processor and pulse to combine. Then process until the zest is fully incorporated into the sugar. This will take under a minute. Take a look, the sugar should be fragrant, moist, and pale yellow. If you see chunks of zest, process a little longer. Fine bits of zest are ok.
  3. Use your sugar in your recipe right away for freshest flavor, or store in a zip lock freezer bag in the refrigerator and use promptly.
