	Zante grape zabaglione zahtar zakuska; pl. zakuski; zakouski Zante grape Zinfandel zapote blanco zest Definition: [ZAN-tee] In the United States, where California is the major grower, this tiny (1/8 to 1/4 inch in diameter) purple grape is predominantly used to make the dried currant. The seedless, very sweet Zante grape also still flourishes in Greece, where it originated. Fresh Zantes can sometimes be found from late summer to late fall in specialty produce markets. Trendy restaurants often use tiny clusters of them as a garnish. They're available year-round as dried currants. See also grape; raisin. --Copyright (c) 1995 by Barron's Educational Series, from The New Food Lover's Companion, Second Edition, by Sharon Tyler Herbst
