Flat grater Microplane GOURMET SERIES EXTRA COARSE CHEESE GRATER Black Stainless steel

The Microplane GOURMET SERIES EXTRA COARSE CHEESE GRATER is a flat grater crafted from durable stainless steel with ultra-sharp, photo-etched teeth. Designed for robust kitchen use, its extra coarse grating surface produces large, uniform shreds suitable for a variety of foods. The stainless steel frame and US-made blades prioritize longevity, while the soft-touch handle and non-skid foot provide comfortable, stable operation on counters and plates.

Advantages

The extra coarse cutting surface makes fast work of hard and soft ingredients, creating large shreds ideal for salads, gratins and toppings. Photo-etched teeth maintain sharpness without the need for frequent sharpening, and the stainless steel construction resists corrosion and bending under regular use. An ergonomic soft-touch handle reduces hand fatigue during extended grating, and the non-skid foot improves stability to help keep the grater steady when used on flat surfaces.

Suitable for

• Hard and soft cheeses (for large shreds)
• Vegetables such as carrots, cabbage and zucchini
• Potatoes for hashbrowns and large shreds
• Chocolate and coconut for topping and baking
• Onions and other aromatics for coarse preparation

Key specifications

• Material: Stainless steel grating surface and frame
• Blade type: Photo-etched extra coarse teeth
• Handle: Soft-touch ergonomic handle
• Design: Flat paddle-style grater with non-skid foot for stability
• Intended use: Extra coarse grating for large shreds

How to use

Place the grater on a stable surface or hold it at an angle over a bowl or plate. Grip the soft-touch handle firmly and move the food item across the extra coarse teeth using steady, even strokes. For best results with soft cheeses, apply light pressure to avoid clogging; for harder ingredients, use firmer, controlled strokes. Clean after use according to manufacturer care instructions to preserve the sharpness of the photo-etched teeth.

Usage recommendations

Use the Microplane extra coarse grater for tasks that require large, consistent shreds such as making coleslaws, preparing hashbrowns, or topping dishes with chunky cheese or chocolate. Avoid excessive lateral force that could bend the frame and always dry thoroughly after washing to maintain stainless steel integrity and blade performance.
