With its multitude of fine blades, this version of the Microplane grater is primarily intended as a spice grater - also for seasoning at the table. However, the razor-sharp blades also remove the peel of citrus fruits in whole, fine pieces. Think, for example, of a fruity gravy in winter, a hint of lemon flavor in shortcrust pastry or Spanish orange cake ...

They are literally razor sharp. The many small blades of these graters are etched out of the material and not simply stamped (as is common with many other models) - this is where their exceptional sharpness comes from. Another advantage is that even with frequent use of the graters, these photo-etched blades hardly wear out. Thus, citrus peels are not crushed, but cut, thus preserving flavor, aroma and vitamins. Chocolate and hard cheese can be sliced into fine flakes, potatoes and vegetables retain their structure even when cut.

The graters come from Microplane in the USA (but the individual parts are assembled in China). Stainless steel is used for all metal parts.
