Know before you buy
The Suri Grater is designed for fibrous or dense ingredients. It excels at grating Japanese staples like wasabi, ginger, and daikon radish, but works equally well for garlic, onions, and apples.
Unlike metal graters that use sharp blades to slice, this ceramic grater uses a rough, textured surface to shred ingredients into a fine paste. This method preserves the texture of delicate aromatics like ginger and wasabi without bruising them.
No, it is equipped with a non-slip silicon base that keeps the grater firmly in place on your countertop while you apply pressure.
It is quite simple to maintain. Because the grated food collects in a smooth channel and is poured out through the spout, there are fewer crevices for residue to get stuck in compared to traditional box graters.
The small size is ideal for individual portions of ginger or garlic, while the large size offers more surface area, making it better suited for grating larger quantities of radish or onion for recipes.
