Sample Recipe from
Lemon Zest

Creamy Lemon Fettuccine

Real simple and real good. This is a classic, vary it however you'd like. You might top the pasta with 4 ounces of salmon caviar, julienned smoked salmon, or blanched asparagus tips. And you might use finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley instead of the chives.

Trust Lori Longbotham to come up with an amazing soup-to-nuts collection of recipes that use lemon zest, lemon juice, and whole lemons to best advantage and to the hilt. What impresses me most is that her recipes are as easy as they are imaginative.
