The zest of a tangerine is a versatile ingredient in cooking and baking. It lends a bright citrus flavor without the bitterness of the pith and prevents waste by utilizing an often overlooked part of the fruit: the skin.
Technically speaking, the zest is the colorful portion of the peel or rind. The peel or rind refers to the entire skinâÃÃ®both the colorful outer portion and the bitter white pith that lies right beneath it. The white pith is bitter and unpleasant, while the zest has the bright flavor of the fruit. But whether a recipe calls for grated lemon (or orange or lime) zest, peel or rind, you won't want to use that unpleasant white pith. It's the colorful zest that adds the bright acidic flavor of the fruit.
