Know before you buy
The coarse blade is designed for ingredients that benefit from a bit of texture, such as carrots for salads, hard cheeses like Parmesan or Pecorino, coconut, and chocolate for baking or garnishes.
Because the handle is made of natural wood, it should be hand-washed and dried immediately. To maintain the wood's appearance and prevent drying, you can occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil.
While the stainless steel blade is durable, the walnut handle is not suitable for the dishwasher. We recommend hand-washing the entire tool to preserve the integrity of the wood and the sharpness of the blade.
Yes, it includes a reusable protective cover. This keeps the blade sharp and prevents accidental nicks when the grater is stored in a kitchen drawer.
The grater features a non-slip end that provides extra stability, allowing you to rest the base securely against a cutting board or bowl while you work.
