Customer Reviews of Microplane Stainless Steel Zester
Customer Rating: Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5
Summary: Simple and effective.
Comment: I bought this to replace the fine grater on my box grater. I recommend replacing the box grater with flat graters for each purpose - grating cheese, lemon/lime zest, fresh nutmeg. This product is super sharp and easy to clean. Just watch that you don't zest your finger tips!

Summary: needs a handle
Comment: i have this one and the one with a handle (different maker). the handle is much more useful and comfortable, but this one shaves twice as much! so if you don't mind not having a handle, I recommend this one. much more productive! and plus, I like the protective case it comes in.

Summary: This microplane is great!
Comment: I bought one of these for myself and I like it so well that I bought one as a gift. I find myself using lemon, lime, and orange zest more often in my cooking because it's so easy to get perfect zest with this tool. I have grated fresh nutmeg with it also. I would highly recommend it.

Summary: No handle? No problem!
Comment: I got this zester for free from a Cook's Illustrated magazine promotion. I can't believe how quickly I can zest an entire lime or lemon. It's amazing! It's also great for hard cheeses, etc. I agree with other reviewers about the lack of a handle. However, I easily solved that problem by buying a Kitchen Aid silicone pot handle cover at Target. It slides on either end and won't slip off during use.

What this zester won't do: it won't create the attractive long "curls" that you can get from the OXO hand zester. You won't be making the key lime pie cover shot, but you'll be done in 60 seconds. Break out the OXO for the garnish, but let this Microplane do the bulk of the work.

Summary: A KITCHEN MUST-HAVE
Comment:
One of my most dreaded and boring kitchen tasks was extracting the zest from lemons for our family's favorite lemon pound cake. Where is the creativity in such a dull, time consuming task?

Now, thanks to this terrific zester/grater that chore is accomplished quickly and neatly. Obviously, it
s a whiz on other citrus fruits, but also give it a try on hard cheeses such as Parmesan and Romano.

This is one indispensable kitchen tool!

Choosing Appliance -> Dishwasher
Choose a dishwasher with sturdy compression springs in the door. Also look for tough, lightweight nylon or graphite racks with cushioned tips that protect glassware and cookware. Weimer recommends choosing a model with a rack design that provides the largest, most flexible interior space and is configured for your belongings, including odd-shaped pieces.
Choosing Appliance -> Ovens
Most avid bakers prefer separate, even-heat double electric ovens. If that describes you - and you have the space - be sure one of the ovens is equipped with a broiler that provides at least 3,000 watts of cooking power. Also look for racks that pull all the way out and lock in place for safe, easy access to the oven. On the inside, a dark interior shows less baked-on grime, while a porcelain interior is easier to clean
