To guarantee a long life for your Microplane blades and to have a safe, efficient and fun grating experience, we have put together some care and handling tips for you.

GRATING WITH MINIMAL EFFORT

MicroplaneCare 2Due to the sharpness of the blades, the food slides gently, quickly and easily from the blade with no pressure and minimal effort and without tearing or shredding or blocking, producing perfect results every time.

There is no need to apply any pressure while grating, making the grating job easy and fun and minimising the risk of getting hurt.

HOW TO ZEST CITRUS FRUITS EASILY

Take the citrus fruit in your hand. Turn the sharp blades/teeth towards the fruit and gently slide along the surface of the fruit while turning the fruit constantly. This method gives you control and helps to avoid grating into the white bitter pith. 

The grated food is then collected on the backside of the grater.

To get the zest off the blades, simply tap the grater or use a finger or a spoon to slide the grated food off.

We also recommend using organic untreated citrus fruits when zesting. 

 

 

 

 

 

CHEESE GRATING MADE EASY FOR KIDS

Simply place the block of cheese on the working space, then turn the grater around, the sharp blades facing the food and away from you.

Gently slide over the food with the blades. The grated food is then captured on the backside of the grater to allow for better metering.

This method of grating ensures, for instance, that children do not come in contact with the sharp blades since the sharp blades are only facing towards the food and not the fingers.

SECURE STORAGE

Each Microplane product is equipped with a protective cover. Always ensure that you place the cover over the blades when not in use.

Then when stored in a drawer or cabinet, your fingers are protected from the sharp blades.

Having the cover over the blades also ensures that the blades maintain sharpness over a longer period since it minimises the contact with other tools.

 

FLEXIBLE AND SECURE USAGE

Each of our hand-held paddle graters is equipped with non-slip rubber base. This allows you to safely maintain the proper angle and stability whilst grating food on trays, in bowls and any different working surfaces.

Better stability and comfort are guaranteed with the rubber base.

  

CLEANING MADE EASY

Straight after using the grater, tap off the food of the blades on a cutting board or any other working space.

Then simply rinse under water and drip dry.

This helps ensure that no food dries onto the blade as this will make it more difficult to clean later.

 

DISHWASHER SAFE

All Microplane graters* are dishwasher safe.

However, to ensure that the blades stay sharp as long as possible, we do recommend washing them by hand.

Please note that the protective covers that come with our products are not suitable for the dishwasher. Please always clean them by hand.

*Except our Master-Series that has walnut handles that need to be hand wash only (do not soak in water).
