• As long as you’re zesting an orange,zest the rest of it! There’s lots of waysto use up orange zest. Stir some intopurchased orange marmalade to give it a boost. Refrigerate some and use it as a garnish over the next few days, perfect for salads, entrées or desserts. Freeze the rest, 1 tbsp. at a time, in plastic resealable bags. You can keep the zest frozen up to a year and stir it into batters for baked goods as needed.
