  1. you have mentioned lemon rind – do we take out lemon fruity part and use the rind or we have to scrap out white part which is part of lemon rind .

    1. Hi Prema,

      Lemon Rind is basically the yellow part of the Lemon (without the White layer). The ideal process is to take a complete lemon and use a small cheese grater and grate the outer yellow part till u find the white layer inside… (White layer is usually bitter in taste and should not be used while cooking). So basically the whole lemon with the white skin will be left which will not be used here. Let me know if any questions.
