The rind is the good part and I think I'll peel some and freeze it though I don't know what I'll use it in. It does make a very good flavored salt. I put it on the blog in the past.donna bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507579686738843451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974379645841145390.post-75526995141638184642015-12-20T14:15:40.770-06:002015-12-20T14:15:40.770-06:00I have never seen on ein person..just yours..Giada...I have never seen on ein person..just yours..Giada made a nice salad to top fish on her show from Positano..candied lemon..does this have puld that is edible?<br />Ivan Day's blog may be a bit in the same direction as Lost Past Remembered..I enjoy her posts too.La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974379645841145390.post-14182112973601585222015-12-20T12:34:25.697-06:002015-12-20T12:34:25.697-06:00Ivan's blog is a class at university, but he k...Ivan's blog is a class at university, but he knows it all, culinarily speaking.donna bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507579686738843451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974379645841145390.post-53771146080480818902015-12-20T12:05:34.595-06:002015-12-20T12:05:34.595-06:00I remember seeing those on your blog before - hey ...I remember seeing those on your blog before - hey are truly alien and fantastical.
