brooke211, turn_out has very adequately answered your actual questions but something to be aware of is that the white pith is bitter so when grating the zest (from an orange, lemon or whatever citrus fruit) be careful to not grate into the white pith because of its bitterness. :-))

Zest is the outer skin of your citrus ( eg: oranges, lemons, limes) zesters can either give you fine strips of peel or they can give you a fine grate, depending on the style you have. Originally, you had a zester on your cheese grater that would do the job or you can buy fine zester/graters such as the microplane to do the job.
