Q: I am looking for powdered lemon rind. I have been unable to find it in any store. My congested heart failure support group is making blends of herbs and spices to reduce the amount of salt used, and this is one of the better blends. You have helped me find several items in the past, and I will be so grateful if you can find powdered lemon rind. Thank you so much. — Catherine Lowery, email
A: I found a powdered lemon zest or peel that boasts a potent lemony flavor, and it also can be used to add a tart zing to baked goods, including cheesecakes and muffins. You can find 1.3-ounce jars of lemon peel powder for $4.55, and 2.6-ounce jars for $7.99 at Spices at Penzeys, 6235 Roswell Road, Sandy Springs, 404-256-7970. If you'd like to order different sizes, check out www.penzeys.com, or call 800-741-7787.
