Tool: Microplane

Microplane is the name of the top brand for graters, zesters and slicers.

Microplane graters emerged from an American company who actually made woodworking tools, and what a perfect background to have. Through persistence in design modification, they eventually created the world's best graters. With comfortable handles and sharp teeth, they fit nicely into your hand and are a joy to use.

Microplane tools are popular because of their ergonomic design and versatile uses for grating a variety of ingredients, especially cheese, lemon zest, ginger and garlic.
