It is true. In its original role, it was a tool used in woodworking but now it is a fantastic appliance for cooking as well. Imagine what it would do to hard cheeses, nutmeg, etc. if it could be used to shave off wood!
It does not have a Having said that, I don't think this is It doesn't matter to me! **) This model is a little bit wider than those with handles, but in general, the size/width will not matter too much unless you are using it to grate cheese. When I grab a handled one I find myself reaching for it This information may be helpful to you.

Selected User Reviews For Microplane Zester Grater all stainless original blade for zesting citrus and grating cheese
The situation has gotten to the point where I have to return the item. There was an adhesive sticker stuck on top of another sticker that were placed on the grates when it arrived. This is not the easiest of tasks This peel might be useful on a rough surface that's going to be used to process foods. Labels that were used in the old days with adhesive are still in use today. A portion of the adhesive remained on the grater after it was soaked for an hour. Because this is an item used in the processing of food, I do not want to use a chemical to remove the residue. Despite my concerns, I sterilized all the non-perishables To test the quality of the grating, the labeled end must be used Ginger root was grated well, and the unit could be cleaned easily after use, however. Although the steel is ok, it is not of great quality. The product you sent me annoys me enough that I sent it back, but I resent the waste of my time. If I had been available to spend the time in the first place, I would have gone to the local kitchen shop and chosen a product.
The plane I bought about 30 years ago when it was transformed from a carpentry plane into a kitchen plane began to fly At the time, I paid $30 for it, and after many years of use and abuse, I finally thought it was time to replace it. There is no difference at all between this one and the one 30 years ago, just at a third of the cost. That's such a good deal! Although there are many sizes and shapes, this is the original, perfect for a wide range of foods including hard cheese, nuts, garlic, onions, and so much more. It is easy to clean, does not leave cuts or smells behind - as long as it is not cut from the edges. There are lots of microplanes to choose from, but this simple one is the most versatile and offers the most value for money out of them all. Check out the latest update for July 18 - This year From reading the reviews, I noticed that few folks complained they didn't have A flat surface is best for this design, so place the grater on top of a bowl, plate, etc. It is the best position for grating (the most force without pushing too hard) as well as the safest position The ones with handles need to be held between my hands or rest on something (the cutting board, plate, etc. ), so I have to grate at an angle, my arm gets tired, I need to push harder than I should, so I risk getting nipped by the grates. Because of this, I like the design that is simple and safe.
I had hoped it would do exactly what I wanted! Citrus is zested, grated ginger and garlic are finely grated (excellent for small dishes), and parmesan is made fluffy. There might be a slight advantage to a model with a handle, but at least there was no problem getting used to this one. Cleaning is simple (just a couple of taps upside down or a rinse under water) and it takes up very little space in your drawer. You should get a more coarse grater if you wish to grate things in bulk - Because it's a microcomputer, it has "micro" in its name. It's long length makes it a very quick tool to use, since you can get long strokes in whereas a shorter grater would take much longer.
I gave my first one to my mother because she loved it so much. There's no way that I would have survived a year without it, but I finally got another one, and I'm amazed that I've survived without it for so long! The presentation is fantastic. In most cases, only the very tip of the rind is taken without peeling away any of the This knife has very sharp blades, and it is nearly effortless to use. Due to the fact that it is quite flat, it is easy to store because it is not large. For safe storage, this device is enclosed in a hard plastic sleeve. In regards to those reviewers who complained that the product did not have a handle so there was Is there some reason you're less likely to scrape your knuckles simply because the handle has a grip? This zester has not presented me with any problems. You do not slip, you do not knuckle-bump This is scrapping. Anything sharp, such as a pencil, comes with a risk. The prevention of this problem is to be careful. If you have no idea how to use a microplane, do not complain about it because you are careless.
When Alton Brown recommended the Microplane zester in an episode of Good Eats, it was probably in the early 2000s. I was searching for the perfect parmigiana mill and grater at that time, and a few days after the show aired, I was on the hunt for Despite the fact that this microplane grater is not very useful for cheese, it did a lot of good to zest citrus fruits, grind cinnamon, chocolate, ginger, and nutmeg for me for the last 10 years. Over mashed potatoes, tunnbrödsrulle, and cheese fondue, we like nutmeg fresh grated, especially over bisques and mashed potatoes. Due to hours of scraping nutmeg on a regular basis, I finally started having problems with my first microplane. A dull blade is just as dangerous as a live one. Force is nothing more than the ability to control yourself. If you have less control, you are more likely to fall. It is a 10 year old product that looks exactly the same as the first one even in the graphic applied to the plastic sheath. As far as the old one goes, I took it to my basement for a bit of woodwork. Wishing you a very happy holiday season!.
So far, the blade has not dulled, and I do use it to grind nutmeg, which can dull blades. For grating a lot of whole spices, it is a good idea to have a separate grater. When you have used the model 40020 Microplane Zester you will know how to use it. . . The handle on this grater is made from black plastic, and it- It may take some time to get used to the less version. As a result of its rounded edges, I have noticed that some foods tend to collect in the underside edges and bought the 40020 for that reason. There are no traps at the edges since the edges are squared. The following is an important note By weight, Microplane breaks down hard cheese into very light and feathery shards that weigh less than shredded cheese if grated using a box or rotary graters. If you grated one ounce of parmesan on the fine holes of the box grater, you would receive 12 cups Microplane grating yields 3-4 cups of grated cheese from one ounce of To assess the suitable amount of hard cheese recommended in a recipe, weigh the cheese accordingly. Use a Microplane to increase the volume by half if it is shown in volume.
