Five different, razor-sharp, photo-etched blades - made in the USA - in a classic four-sided design allow for a variety of grating results. With the fine blade, you can zest citrus fruits and finely grate cheese, ginger, nuts, garlic, nutmeg, spices, and much more. The coarse blade is perfect for grating carrots, cheese, ginger, garlic, and more. The two-way edge is ideal for chocolate, onions, zucchini, apples, cheese, potatoes, carrots, and more. The large grater is great for grating chocolate, cheese, carrots, and more. And with the XL coarse blade, you can grate cheese, apples, carrots, zucchini, cabbage, potatoes, pumpkin, cucumber, and much more. In proven razor-sharp Microplane quality, the food is cut rather than torn, allowing the flavors to unfold. The bottom can be closed with a slider, so you can also use the tower grater as a collection container. With the integrated measuring unit, you can measure grated ingredients up to 600 ml. A non-slip handle and rubber foot ensure a secure grip while grating and provide maximum comfort.
