the tough outer covering or skin of a fruit or vegetables
The rind, also known as the peel or skin, refers to the outer protective layer of both fruits and certain vegetables. It varies in thickness, texture, and color depending on the specific type of produce. Primarily serving to shield the inner flesh from damage, dehydration, and pests, the rind plays a crucial role in preserving the quality and freshness of the fruit or vegetable. In fruits like oranges and lemons, the rind may contain aromatic oils that contribute to the flavor and aroma. While the rind is often discarded before consumption, it can also be utilized in cooking, baking, or as a flavor enhancer in various culinary applications.
