Healthy Cooking Gadgets: Microplane Grater

by Linette Gerlach on July 22nd, 2008

I love grating my own chocolates, and cheeses. I also really enjoy the zing of lemon, lime, and orange zest can add to a recipe. One of my favorite graters is the Microplane Grater/Zester. It’s made from surgical grade stainless steel so it’s even tough enough to grate chocolate and spices, like nutmeg.

It also works great to shred vegetables like carrots, onions, and potatoes. Microplane Grater’s easier to use than many traditional graters, and I think it’s faster.

The blades are razor sharp, and they’ve stayed sharp through many uses. Just watch the knuckles and the fingers, it’ll grate them too if you’re not careful!
