Food shaver Microplane PROFESSIONAL SERIES LARGE — stainless steel, stainless steel handle

Microplane PROFESSIONAL SERIES LARGE food shaver in stainless steel with a stainless steel handle is a single-piece tool designed for producing wide, fine shavings and thin slices from a variety of ingredients. Built for consistent performance, the shaver delivers precise, even curls and chips from hard and semi-hard foods such as cheeses, chocolate and root vegetables, and is also suitable for fresh citrus zest. The all-stainless-steel construction and comfortable handle make it suitable for both professional kitchen use and home cooking tasks where presentation and texture matter.

Advantages

The stainless-steel blade and body provide long-lasting sharpness and resistance to corrosion, ensuring uniform shavings without crushing or tearing. Its single-piece design eliminates seams that can trap food, making the tool easier to clean and more hygienic. The ergonomically curved stainless-steel handle offers secure control during use, and the wide blade creates large, attractive shavings ideal for garnishing and finishing dishes.

Key specifications

• Design: single-piece construction for hygiene and durability
• Cut style: large, wide shavings and thin slices
• Intended use: hard and semi-hard foods, chocolate, citrus zest, vegetables

How to use

Hold the shaver by the stainless-steel handle with a firm grip and position the blade at a slight angle to the food surface. Move the food across the blade with a steady, controlled motion to produce wide, thin shavings; for softer or smaller items, apply lighter pressure. When zesting citrus, use the edge of the blade to remove only the colored outer layer. Clean the shaver after each use according to care instructions to maintain blade sharpness.

Usage recommendations

Use on a stable work surface and secure larger items with a non-slip mat or a fork to avoid slipping. For best results with hard cheeses and chocolate, refrigerate briefly to firm up before shaving. Avoid using on very soft or overly moist foods that can clog the blade; rinse immediately after use and dry thoroughly to preserve the stainless-steel finish.
