The first step is to remove the zest from the lemon without taking the pith (the white, bitter tasting layer under the coloured peel.
If you are looking for long, wide strips of peel the best way is to use a vegetable peeler. For long thin strips there is something called a zester you can use. For a finely grated zest, use a grater.
Once you have your zest off the lemon, place it in a single layer in a cool, dry place. Check it regularly, once it is dried place it in an airtight container and always check it before use as if you have not allowed it to dry completely it may mold.
Not recommended, as this will reek, and not do a very good job of drying, either; they will most likely cook. However, put peels on several layers of paper or other towels on a plate, cover with layers of paper towels, and set oven for approx 1.5 hours, power level 2. Rotate 90 degrees every 10 minutes if not revolving, flip every half hour for even drying. Change towel if soaked.
