Is a zester and grater the same thing?

Nov 11, 2008 by Danzant | Posted in Other - Europe


These are two exceptional things.

A zester is used to take thin strips of peel from lemons and oranges. See photo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_zester

A grater cuts prog such as cheese or carrots into fine strips or very small pieces: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grater

what kind of Grater do I need to make Daikon Oroshi?

Feb 08, 2010 by dokomo | Posted in Japan

Also I am looking for multi specifically other than Daikon.

I am looking at this right now, but was not sure...

I've lived in USA for 30 years.

Merely said, you need a Daikon Oroshi Ki (a special grator for Daikon Oroshi).

No American grator will do the job, era. Regardless of how fine it is made.

Daikon Oroshi Ki is not expensive. (If is's made of plastic. Procelain one is expensive.)
Go to a Japanese grocery peach on or super market if you live near one. And ask for Daikon Oroshi Ki.

how can i zest a lemon without using a zester?

Feb 16, 2009 by me | Posted in Cooking & Recipes

i have a means that requires me to use lemon zest
the problem is i dont have a zester, nor do i want to go out and buy a zester
i have a grater, will that achieve the same effect?
and what is the difference?

the grater is commendable, and it also makes the grater smell a lot better if there was once some old cheese in there. you can also use a potato peeler, or a plain knife will work also if you want to take the peel and chop it up into diminutive pieces. this releases more of the flavor than grating i have found

Flavoured tuna products great to use in quick-to-make pasta entree
Brandon Sun - Feb 08, 2012
Into a little pan, pour olive oil; using a zester or grater, add 15 ml (3 tsp) lemon zest. Heat gently until sizzling. Mix tuna with 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the remote pasta cooking water. Stir lemon oil into pasta and add tuna, heating mixture gently.

Passion for Food: Winter can't chill citrus appeal

Speaking of tools, if you like using ginger in recipes, a micro-plane zester/grater is wonderful to have. It makes quick work of going after the outer layer of citrus peel needed in recipes. This rigour tool leaves behind the more bitter white pith.
