A vegetable peeler or paring knife is handy for removing long strips of citrus zest. Be careful to remove only the thin, colored layer of the peel, leaving the bitter white pith behind. If some of the pith is attached, you can easily scrape it away with a knife. You can then cut the strips lengthwise to the desired width.
