Morphology
The meaning 'the outer skin of a lemon' is directly and transparently derived from the constituents 'lemon' (the fruit) and 'rind' (tough outer covering); the phrase simply names the rind belonging to a lemon. This compositional, literal relationship is common across languages and follows standard noun + noun compounding patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Lemon rind is the thin outer skin of the lemon that holds strong citrus oils. Cooks grate or peel this rind to give food a bright 'flavor' and 'aroma', so today it means the fruit's skin used as a 'flavoring'.
