The Microplane Artisan Series is a contemporary addition to Microplane's collection of paddle-shaped graters. The expansive surface area offers ample space to make fast work out of grating your favorite foods. The stainless steel coarse blade easily grates hard cheeses such as Parmesan and Romano, as well as a wide range of fruits and vegetables, from pears, apples, and coconut to fresh carrots, peppers and ginger. There is no attachment for this grater.
