- What foods is a fine grater best for?
- Hard cheese like Parmesan, citrus zest, nutmeg, garlic and ginger. It is not made for soft cheese, chocolate or vegetables that need a coarse shred.
- How does an etched grater differ from a punched one?
- Etched teeth are cut into the metal instead of stamped out, which usually gives sharper, more uniform edges and no ragged holes. They still dull over time with heavy use.
- Is it dishwasher safe?
- Hand washing and drying is the safer choice for a red-coated metal grater. Dishwasher heat and detergent can dull the finish and wear the cutting edges.
- How big is it?
- It is 13 inches long and 3 inches wide, so it is a long two-handed grater rather than a compact handheld one. Check drawer or wall space before buying.
- Does it come with a cover or container?
- No. It is a single grater with a hanging loop, so plan on a plate or board to catch the gratings.
- Where is the At Home Kitchen Aid Red Etched Fine Grater cheapest?
- At At Home, for $14.99, as of our latest check.
