Microplane Premium Classic Zester/Grater, Eucalyptus Green

Home cooks who want a zester that looks at home on an open shelf choose the Eucalyptus Green Microplane Premium Classic Zester/Grater, one of the earthy Urban colors in Microplane’s range. The soft-touch handle and non-scratch end caps are the same as on every Premium Classic.

Lime zest is the clearest example of what the etched blade does well. The fine teeth take only the green outer layer, which holds the oils, and leave the bitter pith behind. Zest the fruit before juicing it, and fold the zest into a marinade or a key lime pie.

The zester also grates hard cheese, shaves chocolate and grinds whole spices. It hangs from a hook by its handle, so it can live beside the stove.

Slide the cover back on after use to protect the teeth.

For a hard handle, see the Classic Zester/Grater; for whole nutmeg, the shorter Premium Classic Spice Grater. The Details list every color.

Choosing a Microplane Zester

All of these use the same photo-etched, US-made Microplane blade. Our answer page on what makes Microplane graters different explains how the etched teeth cut.

Tips for Best Results

For citrus, draw the fruit across the blade in one direction and turn it as the colored peel comes away, stopping before the white pith.
Turn the zester over to measure: zest and cheese collect in the curved back of the blade.

Care

Microplane rates the zester dishwasher safe; rinsing under running water right after use is usually enough.
Brush the blade from the back to clear trapped zest or cheese. Wiping across the teeth catches the cloth.
Slide the cover back on before the zester goes into a drawer.
