Master Series Zester

This zester features a specialized, fine-tooth blade designed specifically to shear through citrus peel without digging into the bitter white pith. A box grater is typically too coarse and will shred the fruit rather than creating the light, aromatic zest required for recipes.

Yes, the fine grating surface is excellent for hard cheeses like Parmesan, fresh ginger, garlic, and even whole nutmeg. Its precision blade makes it a versatile tool for any ingredient that needs to be finely grated or minced.

The handle is designed with ergonomics in mind to provide a secure grip, but because it is made of smooth stainless steel, it can become slick if your hands are covered in oil or juice. We recommend ensuring your hands are dry before use to maintain full control.

While the zester is durable, we recommend hand washing it with warm, soapy water and a brush to protect the sharpness of the teeth. Avoid putting it in the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can dull the blade over time.

The product description does not specify a protective cover. Because the blade is extremely sharp, we recommend storing it in a safe place or using a blade guard to prevent accidental cuts and protect the teeth from damage.
