Cuisipro Cheese Shaver - C63
We’ve discussed the advantages of Cuisipro Graters, and then they went on to expand the line! The utilitarian box grater has its place in the kitchen: grating quantities to be added later. But there are times when you want a specific tool for the grated material … or maybe you want to offer each guest the ability to control the amount of grated product (I like a lot of cheese on my Caesar Salad, but Piper likes a little less!) … or maybe you will want to add a performing touch of grating at the table, like most waiters in Italian restaurants. Or maybe you just want a grater that is so cool to look at or feels so good to hold or works so well or is so easy to use, that it puts all other graters to shame!
Enter the V Graters, from Cuisipro!
This rasp model has a unique - and lovely! - stainless steel handle, reminiscent of early 20th Century designs seen in everything from the knurled knobs on electronics to fine writing instruments, and even weapons. The handle is beautiful, well-balanced, and sized appropriately for comfortable and effective use. The other end features a non-slip band for stability and has a protective cover for safe storage that can be put on the underside to double as a catch basin and measuring cup. Seeing and holding this graters is enough to make you want it!
But the important part of this grater is the blades. Cuisipro’s patented Surface Glide Technology™ is an etched - not stamped - pattern of ‘repeated grooves’ across the face of the grater. These grooves provide two benefits over traditional grater designs. First, they reduce resistance, making the grating task easier to perform, more quickly, and with less physical effort. But second, and more importantly, the grooves also elongate the cutting surface of each blade, bringing more food in contact with the blades on each stroke: yielding more ‘gratings’ per stroke. The blades are mounted in a V-shape - a slight arc - which enhances the Surface Glide Technology and, in combination, delivers an easier, more efficient grating process, with more consistent, attractive results.
This Small Shaver Rasp is ideal for creating those broad wafer-size slices of chocolate or Parmesan cheese. This graters is made of 304/18/8 stainless steel, features patented technology at its core, and is designed for a long and useful life in your kitchen. Great design, and excellent functionality … each is a very Cool Tool!
