    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    6                     limes -- or 3 oranges
       1/4           cup  sumac
       1/4           cup  fennel seeds -- ground finely
    1           teaspoon  Aleppo chile pepper -- dried ground (or 3/4 t. sweet paprika and 1/4 t. cayenne pepper mixed together)
  
  Remove the zest of the limes or oranges with a vegetable peeler, avoiding
  as much pith as possible.  Place the zest on a baking sheet and tranfer it
  to a gas oven with just the pilot burning.  Place a wooden spoon in the
  oven door to hold it open about an inch to allow for gentle heat and air
  flow.  Let the zest dry overnight.  
  
  If you don't have a gas oven,  dry the zest in a cool, dry place for 2
  days, then toast it in a 200 degree oven for one minute.  
  
  Grind the zest to a powder in the blender or a spice (or coffee) grinder
  and mix in the remaining ingredients.  Store in a tightly covered
  container in a cool, dark place for up tp 4 months, or in the freezer.
  
  Makes about 1/2 cup
  
  ChupaNote: a teaspoon in tomato soup or mayonnaise is wonderful. I used 4
  clementines rather than the oranges.
