Strawberry Basket Cake Question

This recipe calls for 1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange peel.

Does this mean the zest from a orange or the powder
stuff found in the spice isle? Or, does it not matter?

TIA for the any help

No question, the zest from a fresh orange.

I read this thread as "Strawberry Brisket Cake"...EWW Yuch"
Not as Strwberry Basket Cake...Yumm

Grated orange peel is just a different way of saying orange zest. I'd go
for the fresh zest right off an orange; over the dried and older stuff on
the Supermarket shelf. The older the zest the less voilatile <sp??> oils.

It's a delicious cake, I wouldn't even *think* of using anything
less than fresh.

Do you mean Beef Cake?
Or Orange zest...?
