Paramount Grater Every Sold!
This grater is perfect for cheeses and piquancy. Extremely sharp and simple to clean. Well constructed and will last a lifetime.
Sweetie this little guy! Good for cheese and ginger!
This is my stand-in favorite non-knife kitchen product! Grates parmesean cheese with EASE like non other! And it is incredibly easy as can be to clean. I have recently discovered that it does an awesome job with fresh ginger too! Makes lots of ginger force, so grate in a bowl if you wanna use the juice (awesome with fresh watermelon juice, the ginger gives it a excessive tang.) And cinnamon... I love this. The Zyliss jumbo garlic press is my fav non-pierce product BTW.Zyliss Jumbo Garlic Press with Cleaner
poor
worked as expected untill bayonet snapped off at handel. Too be fair, I might have pressed too hard on blade.. I have a replacement and use it quite often however I'm now carefull not to compress too firmly on blade..
microplane grater/zester
I have been imperfect to buy one of these for so long. It is so easy to use! I grate all types of cheeses but most of all it works like a charm for grating lemon and orange peel.
pick the Microplane label for the best graters and zesters
After using tacky imitations for years, I finally broke down and bought a Microplane brand. I guess there is a reason why they are exactly referred to as "Microplanes" on TV, instead of graters. The Microplane brand gadgets will save a lot of time in the kitchen. Expend the extra couple of bucks on the real deal. You won't be disappointed.

Gigantic set
This grater offers many another options for how you would like your cheese grated. It really grips the counter-top well and is easy to clean. I have not old the single slice blade yet, but the blade feels very sharp and I imagine it works excellently like the other graters.
smart blades slice great - should have a lid though
dependable product - slices thru carrots fantastically -- however i was surprised it didn't have a lid to store your sliced veggies afterwards. cleans up well -- but being white - carrots permanently stain in the first use. i suggest they add a lid, and make it red or black so that carrot stains (and perhaps beets if use slice those) don't show. stores well - but the hand guard does not fit into the kit - requiring you to store it elsewhere and likely admit defeat it.
Trim grater but the "hand guard" is a joke!
Got this grater recently and absolutely like it. The compartment makes it easy to collect the cheese. It could have been a bit wider but it works well still. The grating plates also industry well individually if you want to quickly grate cheese over food on the fly. My only complaint is with the hand guard - that poem of plastic with little spikes that is supposed to grip the cheese and protect your hands as you grate. Remarkable concept but poor execution. The spikes don't really dig that far into the cheese and end up sliding off the cheese as you grate, also creating bottomless scratches in the process. Pretty useless for the most part.

Other than that it does its job well.
company little product
This is a cordial product which works well. If you don't want to spend a lot of money for a grating system, this is the way to go. It has several options (various sizes from which to judge), works easily, allows the grated pieces to fall into the plastic container with which it comes and the blades hold, compactly, inside the plastic container while not in use. It is also easy to wash and store. (Like any product with fashionable edges, you have to take care while washing. The self-contained storage means it takes up as little live as possible and you won't accidentally rub your finger along an exposed blade.)
Ongoing International 6-pc Grater Set
Gave it to my son-in-law who loves to cook. He uses it all the antiquated and says it works well and is a big time saver.

Graters that don't grate on the nerves SILive.com

Rasping cheese and other foods is easy when the right equipment is used and annoying when it isn't.

This common dilemma helps spell out the success of Microplane, which offers a grater or peeler for just about any ingredient. The latest offering is a Gastronome Parmesan Grater with a star pattern blade that morphs hard cheese into pillow-flexible, fine fluff, shown at the recent Manhattan preview of the 2010 International Home & Housewares Show. 

Pyrex introduced graters specifically designed to make, catch and measure relatively small amounts of cheese and other foods. The Fine Grater is particularly made for delicate spices such as cinnamon and has a half-cup container with storage marks.

A palm-size Pyrex Standard grater is suggested for hard cheeses and chocolate and holds one cup. For tougher jobs use the Pyrex Rotary Cheese Grater which features a foible handle mechanism for grating and a measured catch container.

What is the best way to clean colanders and graters?

Big pots and pans with cooked on sustenance are easy for me compared with colanders and graters with stuff stuck in little tight places or melted poppycock on them. Is there an easyish way to clean these things?


I generally speaking put mine in the dishwasher and it comes out very clean . But if you have food dried between you can also take and old toothbrush and get the bristles inbetween there to clean out gunk. Add up to sure you have soaked it in hot water first


I use a scrub brush after soaking. What's not to like?


Finery to clean them right after use, before everything has a chance to dry.


I do my grater in the dishwasher. The colander, with a scrubby sponge in the vanish. Spinach pieces are a b*tch.


If there is bits stuck on, I let it soak a few min.
Then I wash it WITH the grain so it doesn't tear up the sponge.
Then I wash the flip side side.

Same for colanders, soak it a few minutes, wash it with a sponge, wash reverse side.


Without delay is always best. Otherwise soak and use a long bristle brush to clean the crevices. It saves your fingers and is very competent.

I allow with another posting...an old toothbrush is good to clean colanders and graters. I have also used a sharp skewer or one of those long toothpicks to overburden the stuck food through the little holes.

gere


toper (if needed) and use a scrub brush (if needed) other than that I used the scrubbing side of a sponge. I NEVER use the dishwasher because they tend to rust in there and yes I use the stir dry - doesn't help.


Put them in the get through to in water immediately and soak. Then put in dishwater.


Dish washer or use a encounter after soaking in hot soapy water.Rinse well.


I ret absorb it immediately, then use a vegetable brush to scrub all the little holes out.


Does anyone have a trick for cleaning cheese graters?

I subsist in an apartment without a dishwasher and I'm looking for a trick to help me clean my box-grater and my microplane graters.

I'm routine with the concept of elbow-grease, but I'm wondering if anyone has a method for cleaning these devices easily without having to dissipate too much time scrubbing and scrubbing and destroying sponges.

Any help?

I also realize that it's technically off-theme here, but if anyone would have an answer, it would be you guys. Thanks.


I broadening mine with a cooking spray like Pam before I use it, Then the cheese doesn't stick as badly and it is easier to decontaminated after each use.


Help me find those CHEESE GRATERS from about 20 years ago?

My parents had this cheese grater that was ALL Stainless Tiptoe, suction mount, and various SS drums that cut the cheese in a rotary fashion. It was probably manufactured in the 70's or at cock crow 80's and for the life of me I can't find one to buy like it. Let me know where i can find one.


Try looking at an old mall or store in your area. You'd be surprised what types of kitchen items are collected and you might stubble across the grater you are looking for. I have recaptured many items I recollect from my Grandmother's kitchen just by taking a day and going through an antique mall. It might be worth the catch out.
