Lemon pepper

Lemon pepper is a spice blend made from granulated lemon zest and cracked black peppercorns. The lemon zest is mashed with the pepper so that the citrus oil infuses into the pepper. The mixture is then baked and dried. Lemon pepper can be used on meats—particularly poultry—and pasta, although it was originally used primarily for seafood. It is also a popular flavor for chicken wings, especially in American cuisine.

History
Lemon pepper seasoning was commercially launched in July 1967 by William Shoffeitt, a product engineer based in Healdsburg, California. Shoffeitt developed the blend as part of his company, Shoffeitt’s Enhance Seasoners. His product gained regional popularity along the West Coast of the United States and was promoted at food trade shows and sold at major department stores including Sears and JCPenney. == Composition ==
