The Microplane Professional Fine Spice Grater is the perfect tool for grating cinnamon, nutmeg and garlic. The grater features razor-sharp teeth that are widely spaced to avoid clogging. This kitchen gadget was inspired by the rasp, a tool that is used to shave wood. The innovative design makes grating spices effortless, leading to tastier cooking and baking. The large grating area allows all types of spices to be shred, including garlic and ginger, and the non-slip rubber feet hold the device in place. Just like other Microplane products, this nutmeg grater features an original design, dishwasher safe parts and a strudy plastic cover.
