zester

A kitchen tool used to remove the outer peel of citrus fruits.
Danh từ
Số nhiều: zesters

A zester is specifically designed to remove the flavedo (the colored outer layer) of citrus fruits while avoiding the bitter white pith underneath. It is a specialized tool used primarily in baking and gourmet cooking to add intense citrus aroma without the bitterness.

In modern kitchens, there is a significant distinction between a traditional zester, which creates long, thin curls or strips of peel, and a Microplane zester, which acts more like a fine grater to produce tiny, fluffy shreds. While "Microplane" is a brand name, it is frequently used as a generic term for this style of zester.

When using a zester, the primary goal is precision. If a cook mentions "zesting" a lemon, they are referring to the action performed by this tool. Using a standard vegetable peeler or a knife is generally considered a less precise alternative to using a dedicated zester.
