Name of kitchen utensil?!


Question:

Name of kitchen utensil?

Does anyone know the name of a kitchen utensil that shreds food into long skinny noodles? We used it on fruit, such as cantaloupe. It has a handle and the top part has 5-6 holes, which we use to scrape along the cantaloupe to make the "noodles." It's not a cheese grater. Sorry for the vague description.


Answers:

It's called a zester or citrus zester. It is normally used to remove the zest from oranges, lemons, etc. without getting any of the bitter pith (white stuff).
