1/4 teaspoon of grated lemon peel?
I want to do this recipe, but this is the first time I've heard of lemon on leche flan. You grate the lemon peel? and add it on the mixture?
Yes, this is to complement the sweetness of the syrup and to give a certain aroma to the flan. Try it to see if you like it and please, can you tell me your reaction or comment after you tried it? thanks.
I will try it this evening. I'm going to cook it. I'm still confused though. It's the lemon's balat that you grate? It's not the juice that you use?
yes, the lemon peel that you grate. You can also use grated lemon on your vegetable salad or punch drink.
the recipe looks simple but I can never perfect mine, i don't know why... oh maybe, leche flan is just not meant to be for me! lol...
by the way, to piebuko, citrus peels like lemons carry a lot of flavor. There's so much oil in it, it makes a wonderful flavor to anything you add them to.
jes, i think practice makes perfect, as they say. hehehe....
