Which Black Sheep Microplane grater to choose

All Black Sheep Microplane graters are elegant, efficient, and very functional. Their ultra-sharp photo-etched stainless steel blade makes them ideal for grating and slicing, and each model has features that make it special:

• Zester Grater. The brand’s most iconic grater, without a doubt. Perfect for finely grating with no effort the peel of citrus fruits without reaching the white part, nuts, spices like nutmeg, chocolate, carrots or garlic, ginger, coconut, or hard cheeses like Parmesan. Ideal for very fine, almost powdery results.
• Coarse Grater. Ideal for coarser results, thanks to its ultra-sharp stainless steel blade you can grate all kinds of foods effortlessly, both hard and soft, and larger vegetables like onions or zucchinis. The perfect ally for grating the cheese you want to gratinate, the onion or tomato for sofrito, or the carrot or zucchini for savory pancakes, or ingredients you want to add to your quiches, frittatas, or sauces.
  
• Extra Coarse Grater. Perfect for preparing ingredients for your salads or for grating tubers and vegetables with an ideal thickness for stir-fries. Cabbage, potatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, pumpkin, onions, eggplants, zucchinis, or carrots. A luxury ally for your baking preparations: you can grate cold butter or coconut to decorate your cakes.
  
• Sheet Grater. With a bidirectional blade design, it allows grating by taking advantage of the back-and-forth motion when sliding foods. This grater is ideal for julienne cuts on vegetables, fruits, hard cheeses, and even chocolate.
