Lemon Powder
I keep the organic lemon peels and dehydrate them until they are hard and crisp then I grind them up into a powder which I use in recipes and also as a natural shake-n-vac carpet freshener before hoovering.
And I make my lemon cheezecakes with lemon powder which gives them their lovely color and taste, yummers.
