Our hand held microplane graters and zesters perfect for holding directly over a dish to finely grate cheese, chocolate, citrus skin, nuts or spices. They are meant for quite hard foods that you need finely grated in relatively small quantities.
There are a variety of sizes to choose from in this product line. They are all versatile, but the smallest two are perfect for delicate garnishes and zesting, and the larger one is good for grating Parmesan or other hard cheeses.
It's probably the best design I have seen for a microplane as it is short and wide (see dimensions in the product specifications below), which gives a good surface for grating. The long microplanes tend to be a little unweildy and I only ever use the lower portion of the grating surface anyway (although they are one of our most popular products on Lavish Cheese!)
What Makes This Grater Special?
- Sharp little teeth for grating and zesting.
- Easy to hold with one hand over a dish, so you can grate with the other.
- If you want to use on softer cheese, you can freeze the cheese first, then grate when it is still hard.
- Easy to store as it is small and flat.
