Stainless Rasp Grater and Zester

This long, narrow rasp is the easiest way to add a big hit of flavor. Photo-etched stainless steel teeth shave instead of tear, pulling just the fragrant zest from lemons and leaving the bitter white pith behind. Run a block of parmesan across it and you get airy, snow-like wisps that melt the moment they hit hot pasta.

It also makes quick work of garlic, fresh ginger, whole nutmeg, and chocolate for dessert. A nonslip foot at the tip anchors it on a bowl or cutting board, and the soft-grip handle feels secure in wet hands. A protective cover is included for storage.
