Peelers, Graters & Zesters

These hand graters do not need much explanation on how to use them. It is fairly basic. The main thing is to watch your fingers, hands, & knuckles. Microplane graters are very sharp which is what you want, but they can also grate skin. I have many sizes and blade types and use and like them all. In my opinion Microplane is the best. I use them to grate nutmeg pods, hard cheeses, zest, chocolate and anything else that needs to be grated. They may be able to go into the dishwasher, but I do not do so, I just simply wash them in hot soapy water. I don't want to take the chance of the dishwashing soap discoloring the handles. They wash in seconds. Be sure to wipe the blade in the opposite direction that you would grate in so you don't cut yourself."..."  Read more
