Take one orange and peel off the yellow part of the skin. Wash the
orange thoroughly first. Then take the yellow part (the zest) and
chop it finely on a cutting board. There's a little tool called
a zester which you can get for a few dollars at any decent cookwares
store and many supermarkets to make the peeling easier.
