Using a grater can be just as attractive in the home as using other household appliances. Therefore, the review of manual graters for lemon and orange peel is very relevant. It is necessary to figure out on what small graters the zest is rubbed and the products of which manufacturers can be trusted.

general description

Citrus fruits are prized not only for their overall taste, but also for their juice and also for their zest. Usually, for many decades, they have been rubbed on a fine hand grater. Such models are highly maneuverable. With their help, it is easy to remove the peel on all bends and planes of the fruit. Advanced graters for lemon and orange zest are complemented by a special knife, with which they prepare oblong strips suitable for decorating a dessert.

Most often we are talking about multifunctional graters. They work not only quickly, but also quite safely... In addition to the actual rubbing, such devices allow you to perfectly chop vegetables and fruits, and not just the zest.

You can even get something in a puree consistency if you choose the right knife for the job. Basically, the dimensions of the device are small, and its use is very simple.

Quality products of this kind serve for a long time. They are quite functional. Knives for different jobs (and sometimes not knives, but attachments or individual blades) are included in the delivery set. The level of equipment has a predictable effect on the price. It should be noted that the warranty is usually only given for a short period.

The zest can be rubbed even on a mechanical grater... The device is equipped with special knives and is manually operated. In addition to the classic systems, there are V-blade options; otherwise, the principle of operation is the same. There are also so-called slicers. They look interesting and cut material well.

Most often, if the grater is suitable for the zest, then it can also be used for the cheese. Another such device is used to rub:

  • chocolate;
  • ginger;
  • garlic;
  • plain and nutmeg.

Such products are evaluated by:

  • the presence of rubber plugs at the ends, which exclude sliding on the surface or its scratching;
  • the presence of covers for hand protection;
  • ease of use and storage;
  • suitability for washing;
  • price;
  • service life.
