Is lemon juice and lemon zest the same?

No, lemon zest and lemon juice are not the same. Lemon juice is a liquid and it will not give as strong as a lemon taste that you will get from a lemon peel.

The biggest use for lemon zest is when a recipe calls for it. It gives a burst of that lemony flavor to a dish. It is very common in baking.
