Live and learn! That’s what our grater can do.

Flat grater

But housewives rarely use this side of the grater. In vain, because it is convenient to grate vegetables for chips, cut onion rings and hard cheese, such as parmesan. Of course, there is a special knife for it. But there is no need to buy it if you learn how to use a regular grater.

Corrugated grater

The wavy grater works in the same way. As a result, you will get beautifully shaped vegetables for a casserole or a fresh salad. It is important to grate the products on this side of the grater before cooking. After all, soft vegetables are difficult to cut and do not hold their shape.

Grater with teeth

As Uncle Vova told me, in the Soviet Union, this side of the grater was used to prepare baby food. Some cooks still make puree this way, but most have already switched to a blender.

However, both professionals and housewives use the smallest grater to grate hard cheese, make crackers and extract zest. And to prevent garlic from getting stuck in the cloves, follow this life hack.
