When baking, what does "devided" and "zest" mean?!
Answers: What does it mean when a recipe askls for 2 cups milk devided? Also, how do you get zest from a lemon or orange?
For the zest, get a kitchen tool called a zester. You can also use your grater; most have different sized holes, so just use the smallest ones.
For divided, that just means that you use half that milk in one part, and half in the other. Read the rest of your directions and it should tell you where its being used.
to get the zest from a lemon, orange or lime use a microplane (basically a miniature shredder...like what you use to grate cheese) just run the fruit across the microplane till you have the desired amount of zest
Divided usually means you will half the two cups of milk and use half of it in one step and the other half later in the recipe. To get the zest from an orange you need a scraper/grater to grate away some of the skin off the fruit.
Divided.....you will 'use' 2 cups of milk, but at different times... keep reading the recipe, it should state add 1/2 cup now, etc.
You get the zest by using a zester.....or a rasp. You can also use a potato pealer and get JUST the yellow/orange off...do not get any of the white stuff (bitter) and then chop and chop and chop till you get very fine pieces.
Divided means you will use half of the milk in 2 different times. I have a tool that gets the zest, it is only the yellow part of the lemon, or the orange part of the orange. You can use a grater, the smallest part to get the zest.
Well, I've never heard the cooking term "Devided before" But I think it might be a typo that just means that you divide the 2 cups of milk in half. As for getting the zest from citrus fruit, you can buy a zester or you can just use a paring knife and very thinly cut the skin off. Try to avoid cutting into the white stuff.
