In our house, we love a gadget! You can’t beat something that makes a job easier, especially when it comes to making something in the kitchen! A little bit old school but with all the modern looks, I have something new from Microplane that is going to make your next dish a whole lot more fun to make! Its a new kitchen wonder!

Good Morning Lovelies, 

Cooking is something I enjoy it am not very confident or able to do well. Not just because of my ED but due to the hardships that come with it. Grating cheese. Chopping foods. Pouring the right amounts of liquids into a dish. They can all be a bit of a struggle. 

There so, I am always excited to find out and try a new kitchen gadget. Kindly gifted to me by Microplane, I have spent the last few days testing their new Rotary Fine Blade Grater, which is the newest addition to their high-end grater family. And I have to say that I loved it. 

Perfect for grating cheeses and grinding up nuts or chocolate, the fine blade grater uses just three parts to make all the difference to a dish. With a lightweight body, a stainless steel grate drum and an easy to turn handle, the chosen foods simply fit into the chamber at the top, before they are grated in a matter of seconds. 

We have tested it mostly on cheeses in our house, using it to help top chilli’s, fill toasties and add a pop of colour to the top of a classic shepherds pie. Whilst it says it is good for hard cheeses, we found it worked great with cheddar blocks too, when cut down into cubes. In no time at all, we made each meal extra special and that made me happy, as even I could use it. 

When we had finished using it, we were equally as pleased with how easy it was to dissemble and clean. Unlike a normal grater, which can be hard to scrub, this was tidied up with a quick blitz before being stored away. It took up hardly any room in our drawer, which meant that we didn’t have to move plates or utensils around. A big bonus in our small kitchen. 

As the newest member of the Microplane family, it is definitely the most stand out character of the bunch. Having tried others in the range, this one is now my firm favourite. No longer will I have to struggle to grate or cut something. This has changed everything for me, as a disabled person, and I am so grateful for it. 

If you struggle in the kitchen like me or you just want to have a tool that will make the whole cooking process easier than this is the gadget to get. Microplane have worked miracles with it. It truly is a game changing piece of equipment that we should all be able to enjoy! I mean, just think about the extra chocolate dust on your hot chocolate at Christmas from it!
