    Lemon pepper and...??

    My wife decided to make lemon pepper the other day by putting a bunch of peeled lemon zest in the dehydrator, and grinding it up whenn it was crunchy. I was astounded at how fragrant and how much better it was than standard lemon pepper. It smells so much more like lemon than pepper, unlike the jarred stuff in the cupboard.

    We often dry herbs - sage, oregano, basil, mint, rosemary, etc, so I know how much more vibrant those are than typical purchased dried herbs. I didn't expect lemon pepper to be soooo much better.

    What else have you made that surprised you? What other things should we try? I want to try lime and orange zest, too, but a typical spice combo with them insont coming to mind. Ideas?

    Getting ready to mix pepper with honey and drizzle on Brussel sprouts. Really good mix

      I picked up a seasoning blend that has salt, pepper, cumin, and orange. I imagine you could recreate that for a good pork rub. I haven't tried doing it myself.

        skipsdaughter sounds just about like the recipe I use for Cuban style roast pork. Just needs garlic! Yum!
