Microplane Classic Zester Grater, Black – Ultra Sharp USA-Made Blades

Elevate Your Kitchen with the Microplane Classic Zester Grater

The Microplane Classic Zester Grater in Black blends precision, ease, and a clean, modern look. Built around ultra sharp blades crafted in the USA, this tool delivers quick, fragrant zest and smooth grate results, while a BPA-free plastic handle keeps the feel comfortable in hand. The blade’s specific tooth pattern is designed to lift the flavorful zest from citrus fruits, capturing essential oils and aromas while keeping the bitter white pith where it belongs—in the fruit, not on your plate.

Beyond citrus, this grater excels at transforming cheese and garnishes. Grate parmesan into light, fluffy shreds that melt beautifully on pasta, eggs, salads, or roasted vegetables, adding a bright, savory boost without overwhelming the dish. The stainless steel construction resists rust and stays sharp over time, and its magnetic compatibility means you can store it neatly on a magnetic strip within easy reach.
