How to use

Hold the Rakau Grater at a stable angle over a plate or cutting board and move the food item across the grating surface using steady, controlled strokes. For hard cheeses, apply moderate pressure and grate in one direction to gather uniform shreds. For citrus zest, use light strokes to remove only the colored outer peel and avoid the bitter white pith. Rinse or wipe the grater after use to remove residue and prevent buildup; allow to dry completely before packing.

Usage recommendations

For longer service life, avoid prolonged exposure to salty or highly acidic foods without rinsing, and store the grater dry. When packing for backpacking, place the grater inside a small protective pouch or between soft items to prevent bending or abrasion.
