What you need:

* 1 tsp. grated lemon peel

What to do:
1. In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, sugar and salt until well blended. Stir in milk, lemon peel, lemon juice and vanilla. Blend well.
2. Place four (6-oz.) custard cups or ramekins in an 8-x 8-in. baking pan. Pour about 1/4 egg mixture into each custard cup. Place pan on center rack in preheated 350ºF oven. Pour very hot water into pan so it comes within 1/2-in. of the top of the custard cups.
