Turn fresh ginger and garlic into vibrant, aromatic pastes with a tool designed for precision and comfort. The OXO Good Grips Etched Ginger & Garlic Grater combines a sharp, etched stainless steel surface with a soft, non-slip handle, giving you confident control from first grate to final scrape. The design helps you capture the aroma and flavor close to the dish, reducing prep time without sacrificing texture.

Key advantages

• Effortlessly grate garlic and ginger into a fine paste for sauces, rubs, and marinades
• Etched stainless steel teeth also handle fibrous ingredients like turmeric and horseradish
• Snap-on cover doubles as a scraper to transfer paste cleanly into your pan or bowl
• Non-slip foot provides stability during grating, even on busy countertops
• Soft, non-slip handle delivers a comfortable grip for extended prep
• Top-rack dishwasher safe for straightforward cleanup

Real-world uses

Imagine whisking a light, garlicky paste into olive oil as a flavor base, then finishing a stir-fry with a quick garlic boost. Grating fresh ginger lets you dissolve a fragrant paste into a glaze for roasted vegetables, preserving aroma. The sharp teeth tackle fibrous roots with ease, turning tough ingredients into smooth, flavorful additions to your recipes.

For bold finishing touches, turmeric or horseradish pastes can be prepared with a few deliberate strokes, adding color and heat without overpowering the dish. The snap-on scraper keeps your hands clean and your workspace tidy, while the non-slip foot helps you maintain steady pressure as you work.

Aroma, texture, and care

Freshly grated garlic and ginger release vibrant aromas that wake up a dish without overdoing the flavors. The grater’s surface stays sharp with regular use, and the scraper ensures you retrieve every bit of paste from the surface. Rinse after use and place on the top rack of your dishwasher for easy cleanup.

Practical tips

• Use light pressure for a finer paste or a slightly firmer texture for rubs
• Grate directly over a pan or bowl to minimize transfers
• Pair with a small amount of olive oil to help paste blend into sauces

Care and maintenance

Rinse after use and place in the top rack of your dishwasher. The etched teeth resist wear with regular use, and the scraper tip helps you retrieve every bit of paste from the surface.
