Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and dry lemons; peel zest from lemons using a vegetable peeler, making sure not to get any pith. Spread peels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until peels are curled up and dried, about 30 minutes. Turn off oven; cool peels inside oven, propping door open with a wooden spoon to allow moisture to escape, about 20 minutes. Remove peels from oven; cool completely.
Step 4
Combine cooled, dried lemon peels and peppercorns in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade; pulse until coarse. Add dehydrated garlic and onion; blend until fine and thoroughly combined.
Step 5
Transfer to a container; rest before using so flavors can meld, about 3 hours.
