Microplane Gourmet Grater – Large Shaver

Introduction

The legendary Microplane grater (the one you’ll have seen Jamie and Nigella using and raving about) now has a Gourmet series – all the same sharpness and efficiency with just a little more user-friendliness added in.

The black-handled large shaver Gourmet model is perfect for creating delicious shaving of hard cheeses such as Parmesan or Pecorino, as well as vegetables and truffles for dressing your food beautifully. The new rubber-coated bar at the end, and thicker, softer handle help with your grip and leverage while you’re slicing.

Microplane’s chemical-etched blades, still made by a family-owned company in America, are far more effective than traditional punched blades, so they cut effortlessly through hard or soft foods without tearing or shredding. The repeated groove pattern spread evenly across the different grating surfaces means less resistance, so grating requires less effort. it’s made from surgical grade stainless steel, with a comfortable, ergonomically designed plastic handle, so it feels fantastic in your hand and makes grating so easy. The snap-on plastic cover can be flipped round to catch food while in use, and of course, keeps the blades safe and sharp when not in use. They are the ‘must-have’ of kitchen graters.
