Microplane Classic Zester Grater

The Microplane Premium Classic Zester Grater is a versatile kitchen essential. Designed with a specific tooth set, the blade effortlessly removes the flavorful rind from citrus fruits while leaving behind the bitter white pith. This zest adds a burst of flavor to vinaigrettes, stir-fries, salads, and baked goods.

For fluffy, evenly-sized cheese shreds, this grater is the perfect tool. Its design is based on a rasp, a small and efficient woodworking tool, with especially sharp cutters that guarantee easy grating. However, this also requires extra caution to avoid grated knuckles. The large handle provides a firm grip, and the flat grating surface makes it simple to glide cheese across the blades. Carrots, onions, and medium to firm cheeses all work beautifully with this grater. It's also excellent for creating larger strips of citrus zest or ginger.

The Microplane is crafted from surgical-grade stainless steel, ensuring it remains rust-free and maintains its sharpness over time. This material is magnetic, allowing the grater to be conveniently stored on a magnetic knife strip. Cleaning is a breeze - simply rinse immediately after use and, if needed, use a kitchen brush to remove any tough-to-reach particles. The zester/grater can even be placed in the dishwasher.

Whether you're grating parmesan into fluffy mounds to melt over rustic pasta dishes or sprinkling fresh parmesan over eggs, salads, and more, the Microplane Premium Classic Zester Grater is a must-have tool for any kitchen. Its versatility extends beyond cheese and citrus, as it can also be used to finely grate spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and even chilies. Grated ginger and garlic are also a breeze with this efficient and sharp grater.
