Product Details

Microplane is a household name across the world for their exceptional blades, which grate ingredients without bruising and tearing them. Their Gourmet range is fitted with comfortable soft-grip handles as well as non-slip rubber bases that let you stand them up at an angle over a plate or cutting board. The notch in the handles allows for hanging storage. They are dishwasher safe, but repeated exposure to dishwasher chemicals may dull the blades and shorten the lifespan of the products. This gift set includes their premium zester, which is a go-to for grating garlic, ginger, citrus, and more; a vegetable slicer that creates paper-thin slices of fruits and vegetables and a cut-resistant glove to protect hands from sharp blades. 

Why we love it

'Microplane graters and zesters are often referred to by the brand name, because there's simply no other blades that are as sharp or durable.'

About The Brand

Microplane

The first Microplane was conceived in 1990 by brothers Richard and Jeff Grace in Arkansas, USA, and was originally intended for use in woodworking. However, as the legend goes, a home cook once decided on a whim to try it out on an orange, and was astonished by the perfectly-shaped shards of zest it could produce. This ultimately led to the development of the Microplane brand as we know it today—a household name and the industry standard for graters, shavers, and zesters.

What sets Microplane products apart from others is their exceptional, long-lasting sharpness: the blades are made by means of a patented photochemical etching process that shapes them far more precisely than traditional mechanical means. The razor-sharp blades finely slice ingredients, rather than crushing or tearing them like the duller metal-stamped blades on standard graters; this makes grating or zesting much less laborious, and improves the taste, texture, and appearance of whatever you’re grating.
