Zesto

"No more raw knuckles"

CITRUSY ZEST and tropical gingerroot add fresh sparkling flavor to low-fat and low-salt recipes but often mean grated knuckles and time-consuming kitchen cleanup. For cooks with joint problems, grating can be painful. Put away your grater and your hand liniment. Two new all-natural convenience products make it a snap to add just a pinch of real gingerroot flavor or zest to your recipes. The Ginger People at Royal Pacific Foods preserve crushed gingerroot and ginger juice in citrus juice, so the products don’t have nasty additives that often give other gingerroot convenience products off-flavors. Lemon and Orange Zesto by Zesto Holdings, Inc. is powdered citrus peel made from gently air-dried fresh citrus peels. Always ready, it keeps indefinitely in a cool, dry place and contains no fat or calories but all the vitamins and minerals of citrus peel. Simply substitute ¼ teaspoon lemon or orange Zesto for every teaspoon of zest or finely shredded peel called for in a recipe.
