Review: The Perfect Grater! - My husband and I love using this new tool in the kitchen! It is SO much easier now to grate cheese over pasta dishes, grate lemon zest, etc., and cleanup is a breeze. It’s a heavy-duty, high-quality item, and I love the sleek-looking white handle. It has a great cover for the blades when not in use. We much prefer this to larger cheese graters and are extremely happy with our purchase. We decided to get one after taking a pasta class and seeing the chef using one; we wish we’d gotten this years ago! ## Features - ZEST CITRUS: The blade is designed with a specific tooth set that takes the flavorful rind directly off the citrus fruit, while leaving behind the bitter white pith. Zest adds flavor to vinaigrettes, stir fries, salads, and baked goods! Change your life, with a little zest! - SO MANY USES: grate ginger and garlic into a minced pastes to flavor many popular foods. Create ground spices from whole hard cinnamon or nutmeg. Use to shave a cork down to fit back into a bottle - even scrape off burnt or dark spots from cookies, scones, and toast. The possibilities are endless. - ULTRA SHARP MADE IN THE USA BLADES: Microplate uses photo-etched technology to make ultra sharp grating blades right here in America! Made of surgical grade stainless steel this material stays rust-free and maintains sharpness over time. True stainless steel is magnetic, so this item can be hung on your magnetic knife strip.
