Microplane Elite Series Grater Zester

The Microplane Elite Fine Zester is the optimum choice for creating flavorful citrus zest without any of bitter white pith just under the fruits peel. It's stellar at grating aromatics, such as shallots, onions, garlic and ginger into a fine paste that melts and blends instantly with other ingredients in a pan, as well as transforming Parmesan and other hard cheese into powdery mounds for garnishing pasta and other savory dishes. Unique to Microplane graters, the new Elite series includes a transparent cover that doubles as a grating catch feature and measuring cup with generous 1-cup capacity.
