20 cm Kitchen Grater

This tool is a Microplane-style rasp grater, a kitchen essential designed for precision tasking. Unlike traditional box graters, its long, narrow profile and razor-sharp etched teeth allow for much finer results with less effort.

Key Features

• Design: A long, stainless steel blade with a rounded, ergonomic handle. It’s built for "zesting" rather than heavy-duty shredding.

• Precision Cutting: The tiny, ultra-sharp teeth are chemically etched rather than stamped. This allows it to shear food cleanly instead of tearing it, which preserves more flavor and aroma.

• Versatility: While the image shows it being used for lemon zest, it’s a "multitasker" favorite for:

• Hard Cheeses: Creating light, cloud-like ribbons of Parmesan.

• Aromatics: Grating fresh ginger, garlic, or turmeric into a fine paste.

• Spices: Grating whole nutmeg or cinnamon sticks.

• Garnish: Shaving dark chocolate over desserts or coffee.

Usage Tip

To get the most out of it (and keep your knuckles safe), hold the grater at an angle over your plate or bowl and pull the ingredient across the blades in one direction. Most chefs actually prefer to hold the grater upside down and run it over the fruit; this way, the zest collects in the "channel" of the blade so you can see exactly how much you’ve harvested.
