Great info, using the pith was my problem!

So glad you found our video helpful! Happy zesting 😃 🍋

Thank you! Question: Do you wash your oranges first? I know you use organic, but if we use non-organic, will washing them before using make the zest "safer"?

[@KnowYourProduce]

We always wash all produce. Even if we’re not eating this rind or skin , we’ll still wash it. There is bacteria on the surface due to many hands touching before we get our food. 😊

Thanks for the tip on how to make orange zest. If you have any lawyer friends, just add it to coffee and serve it as "Grounds for Appeal"! You're welcome! 🙂

[@KnowYourProduce]

Ha!! I love it 😅

[@SMF314]

Thanks

You're so welcome! :)

[@marymurphy9338]

what is your preferred way in freezing the zest?

[@KnowYourProduce]

I typically just freeze in a stasher bag (reusable bag that’s freezer safe) or in my small measured souper cubes. :)
