Calphalon Fine 2 Way Grater Review

Calphalon Fine 2 Way Grater
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I really should have gotten the Microplan version, as I like to zest a lot. But I wanted to take advantage of a 4 for 3 promo and this was eligible. It's an OK grater...we use it for cheeses and zesting but I've used a Microplane too and it's definitely a step down from that. The handle is nice and comfortable. It has no storage sleeve, which I'd like. And I prefer Microplane's flat surface to this rounded one - all of my cheeses end up dome-shaped on the ends. Bottom line, this one isn't terrible but for a few buck more, I say, go with the Microplane. I'm about to do so myself!

Cuisipro Accutec Razor-Sharp Kitchen Rasp Review

Cuisipro Accutec Razor-Sharp Kitchen Rasp

I just got this grater and I was blown away with how sharp it is! It makes grating so easy. At first I was a little skeptical about the manufacture's claim to having razor sharp teeth but now that I've tried it - I know they are for real. The grater seems to effortlessly shave through everything without tearing or shredding the food. And b/c it was so effortless, I could just hold the grater over my food and grate right onto it. I would highly recommend this grater and will definitely be looking to getting some of their other graters. Cuisipro well done!

The tiny razor like edges are created with a unique two-sided photo etching process, not punched through metal, so the double-beveled blades neither tear nor shred but gently shave and grate food. The grater has a comfortable, ergonomic round-to-oval handle and a rubber-coated, non-slip end for grating ease. It's easy to use over a bowl or angled on a counter. It also cleans up easily and safely in the dishwasher. It measures approximately 13 inches long and carries a 25-year limited warranty.

I have a zester by Good Grips & it's so flimsy I'm afraid I'll break it every time I use it. This one is very sturdy and well made. Good value, I recommend everyone own one!

Microplane Citrus Tool Review

Microplane Citrus Tool
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this from WS thinking it was cute and would be perfect for zesting lemons. I was wrong. It has an acrylic rim around the metal blade which attaches it to the rubber handle. The plastic broke after only zesting two lemons. I think it has a poor design. The blade is great and until it broke, it did zest the first lemon in about one minute! So I will purchase the all metal Microplane insteadMicroplane Grater/Zester.

Oxo Good Grips Lemon Zester Review

I am a quadriplegic/tetraplegic (C5-6 for any of you who care). I have only about 1/3 use of my hands and about 1/2 use of my arms, but I can use this zester--not with great ease, but I can use it! I cannot use any other zester I have tried.
My mother has mild arthritis and she likes my Oxo tools better than her own (even the ones she's grown to love over the years).
The zesting blades are sharp and at the perfect angle. You get perfect zest with little effort. And you get NO pith (bitter white part).
As with almost all Oxo tools the design is excellent: it is highly ergonomic--it fits the hand and works the way it should.

Specially designed to get the tasty zest while leaving the bitter rind behind. The notch tool works to get spirals of peel and the soft, oversized handle works to take pressure off your hand.

Microplane Premium Zester/Grater Review

Microplane Premium Zester/Grater
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I find this to be a better tool for zesting than the traditional zester. I use less effort zesting with this Microplane to remove only the rind and not get to that white pith that is very bitter. And most of the zest collects underneath the tool or falls from below. A few minor raps and the most of the collected zest fall away. When I use the traditional zesting tool, I get quite a bit of the zest and essential oil on my hands.
This Microplane is fairly easy to wash and clean. But, after washing, hold the handle and shake out the water that collects in the handle. Then place the Microplane with the handle up after washing so the water dries out from the handle.
I see that there is a newer version of this tool with a shorter and wider rasp area. The tool also includes a small and large strip zester.
PROS: Removes the zest with less effort and better control (without removing the bitter pith). Easily collects the zest without it collecting on your hands.
CONS: The rasp and handle area is not totally sealed or removable to either prevent food to collect under the handle or to allow thorough cleaning.

I've been watching TV cooking shows and these are used alot. The microplaner is great for zesting citrus and the coarse greater is good on cheddar cheese when you just want a little to garnish a dish. I like that they come in different handle colors, so you can distinguish them when they are in your counter crock.

Does what you want it to do, wouldn't change anything, cleans easily, keeps mess to a minimum and makes baking/cooking more fun by taking the work out of it. Great buy.

To add zest to dishes and desserts simply fit the PalmZester in the palm of your hand and then zest lemons, oranges and limes. The stainless steel blade quickly zests the peel of the citrus and then collects the zest in the see-through storage area.This keeps the zest off your counters and ready for use. Next, simply remove the top of the PalmZester to access the fresh zest. Either include in your recipe or garnish your dish. The PalmZester has a stainless steel blade and is top rack dishwasher safe.

Microplane 40020 Grater/Zester Review

I purchased this after spending 2 hours zesting limes for a gourmet cookie recipe with the traditional potato-peeler+ food processor method. The most time consuming part is carefully scraping way all the white pith on the inside of the peel. The pith is very bitter and can ruin your recipe. This zester did the same job in 30 seconds and didn't even touch the pith. Just pure, perfect lime zest with no effort. Totally worth its weight in gold. Now I can make those cookies again without my hands cramping up after hours scraping the peels. Who has time for that?
I've also started using it for grating parmesan. Definately takes Ceaser salads and pasta up a notch. I'm purchasing several more as gifts for my friends. Would make an incredible (and cheap) holiday/birthday gift for anyone, even the casual cook. Please note that the size of the grated zest or cheese is very fine and not ideal as a garnish. Parmesan or Romano grated with this tool melts quickly into the pasta, and doesn't lend much to the presentation. Tastes great, but hard to see. If you're looking for a garnishing tool, this is not it.

Here's a zester that means business! You'll have a mound of zest in seconds flat with minimal effort. This tool also shreds Parmesan and other hard cheeses quickly and efficiently.

I actually purchased this peeler at the WMF Factory store in Germany. I absolutely love it. Some people have a hard time getting used to holding the sharp edge at an angle to the food as opposed to flat like traditional peelers, but once you get the motion right, it skims right over anything you need peeling with ease. All the WMF products I have are good, solid products that I believe will last forever!
