Lemon peel is the cut and dried outer shell of the lemon fruit. Although the peel contains a high concentration of oils responsible for a strong lemon flavor and scent, the light-colored pith portion of the peel makes it too bitter to eat fresh. Organic lemon peel is obtained from the rind of lemons. There is intense lemon flavor in the peel because this is where the fruit’s volatile oils reside, which concentrate when the peel is dried. As a flavoring, lemon peel has many uses. Dried lemon peel yields flavor and aroma to vinegars and alcohol-based solvents. The peel is also used in tea blends and is added to baked goods. Our lemon peel for sale is also used in herbal crafts, such as potpourri and simmering spice mixes.

lemon peel

The lemon is a hybrid citrus fruit thought to be indigenous to Asia. Today, these evergreen shrubs are cultivated in temperate zones throughout the world for food and as ornamental landscaping.

While the fresh juice of the fruit is used to make sweet and tangy beverages and to tenderize meat, dried lemon peel lends concentrated lemony flavor to teas and baked goods. The cut and sifted peel can also be added to bath salts, herbal bath bags and body scrubs.
