3-Way Grater in Stainless Steel

How to Use the Stainless Steel 3 Way Grater

1. Understanding the Grater

• The 3 way grater features three different grating surfaces: fine, medium, and coarse.
• Each surface is designed for different types of ingredients and textures.

2. Preparing for Use

• Ensure the grater is clean and dry before use.
• Place a cutting board or a flat surface underneath to catch the grated ingredients.
• Hold the grater by the handle for a firm grip.

3. Choosing the Right Surface

• Fine Grating: Ideal for zesting citrus fruits, grating hard cheeses, or spices like nutmeg.
• Medium Grating: Suitable for softer cheeses, butter, or chocolate.
• Coarse Grating: Best for vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, or for slicing softer cheeses.

4. Grating Technique

• Hold the ingredient firmly in one hand.
• Move the ingredient up and down against the grating surface of your choice, applying gentle pressure.
• Be cautious of your fingers as they approach the grating surface.

5. Cleaning and Maintenance

• Rinse the grater under warm water immediately after use to prevent residues from hardening.
• Use a brush to remove any remaining particles stuck in the grating surfaces.
• Dry thoroughly to prevent rusting, even though it is stainless steel.

6. Safe Storage

• Store in a dry place, away from moisture.
• Consider using a protective cover if provided, to prevent accidental cuts and to protect the grating surfaces.
