xMeet your citrus companion: Microplane Premium Classic Series Turquoise Zester & Grater
Bright turquoise accents and a precision-driven blade design come together in a tool built to maximize flavor without fuss. The tooth set is tuned to lift the fragrant zest from citrus fruit while leaving the bitter white pith behind, helping you achieve cleaner, livelier citrus notes in dressings, batters, and desserts.
Key benefits at a glance
- Zest citrus with precision: the specialized tooth pattern extracts the rind’s aroma while minimizing pith for a fresh, aromatic finish.
- Versatile kitchen helper: grate ginger and garlic into pastes, shave spices from whole sticks, or even refine corks to fit back into a bottle.
- Ultra sharp USA-made blades: photo-etched stainless steel blades stay sharp and resist rust; magnetic for easy storage; non-scratch end tabs protect counters.
- Easy care: rinse after use or place in the dishwasher; a quick brush can remove difficult residue from the blade underside.
Real-life use cases
Imagine bright lemon zest brightening a green salad, or a delicate ginger paste whisked into a sauce for quick weeknight meals. The tool also doubles for small precision tasks like shaving a cork to reseal a bottle or removing tiny burnt spots from pastries, making everyday cooking surfaces feel a little more effortless.
Quality you can trust
Crafted in the United States, the blades are designed to endure frequent use. The stainless steel resists rust, and the turquoise handle provides a comfortable, confident grip during longer prep sessions.
Care and maintenance
- Rinse promptly after use to prevent residue buildup.
- For deeper cleaning, run through the dishwasher or scrub with a brush on the blade underside.
- Store on a magnetic strip or in a drawer with end-tab protection to avoid scratches.
