Microplanes were originally developed as a wood rasp, but once cooks and chefs got their hands on them, microplanes have revolutionized grating and zesting things like citrus peel and ginger. The microplane grater/zester is the best.

An invaluable cooking tool. Nothing can take the zest off of citrus like a microplane.

A microplane grater is a must for anyone who loves cooking. This model with the easy to grip handle is much better than the one without the handle. It's easy to clean and comes with a nice cover to keep it sharp and safe in your drawers. It's perfect for zesting, grating hard cheeses, and grater ginger (freeze it to make it even easier). It's my hands down favorite kitchen gadget.

This thing is amazing. I use it for zesting citrus, grating whole nutmeg, and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and it is freakishly easy when trying to get the most out of fresh peeled ginger. I can get both ginger flesh and juice when I scrub the pieces across the metal teeth.
