About

Simple box graters, with 4 surfaces offering a choice of cutting holes, are more stable in use than flat graters. Metal ones are best and have sharper cutting holes. Safer is a rotary grater, with selection of fine and coarse drums turned by crank, although this can only be used for small food items. A nutmeg grater enables the cook to enjoy this spice at its freshest and most aromatic.
