Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Microplane 34005 Better Box Grater with Protective Slider
Customer Review: Fabulous tool - but be careful!
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this grater at a garage sale! The previous owner had the clear plastic slider upside down (it is supposed to sit so the door opens down and the Microplane name up.) When I tried to grate with the slider upside down, the cheese slid all over the place and it was awful. Then I realized the mistake, and I've been in love with this thing ever since.
The fine blade side turns hard cheese (e.g.: asiago, parmesan) into a snow like consistency. I add a bit of a strong flavored cheese snow on top of appetizers for a surprising zing. Cheese or chocolate graded this fine melts in an instant.
It washes easily in hot water in the sink or in the dishwasher. The slider goes on either side, and I can get a hunk of cheese (or chocolate) down to a thin wafer before it won't shred any more. I haven't tried very soft cheeses like mozzarella, but everything from cheddar to chocolate grates easily and quickly.
My mother saw mine and asked for one for a gift. I might give one to all my cook friends!
If you are careful to keep the slider in the correct position - I bet you will love this device too.
