Unpacking Your Grater

• Carefully remove the grater from its packaging.
• Inspect the grater for any visible damage or defects.
• Wash the grater with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly before first use.

Choosing the Right Side

• Identify each side of the hexagonal grater, which features different shredding options.
• Select the side that corresponds to your desired cheese texture:
  • Fine Grating: Use for hard cheeses like Parmesan.
  • Coarse Grating: Ideal for softer cheeses like Cheddar or Mozzarella.
  • Shredding: Suitable for medium to hard cheeses.
  • Slicing: Use this side for even slices of cheese.
  • Crinkled Slicing: Perfect for decorative cheese slices.
  • Grating/Zesting: Use for zesting citrus or grating spices like nutmeg.

Using the Grater

• Place a clean cutting board or plate under the grater to catch the cheese.
• Hold the grater firmly with one hand using the handle.
• With your free hand, hold the cheese block securely.
• Press the cheese against the desired side of the grater.
• Move the cheese up and down against the grater, applying consistent pressure.
• Continue until the desired amount of cheese is grated.

Safety Tips

• Keep fingers away from the grating surfaces to avoid injury.
• Grate slowly and carefully when you approach the end of the cheese block.
• Store the grater out of reach of children.

Cleaning and Maintenance

• Rinse the grater immediately after use to prevent cheese from hardening on the surface.
• Wash with warm soapy water or place it in the dishwasher if it is dishwasher safe.
• Dry thoroughly before storing to prevent rust.
