From the brand
-
Microplane is the original manufacturer to apply photo-etching technology to graters, an innovative process designed to create ultra-sharp grater blades. Made in USA, the tiny, razor-sharp teeth act like finely honed knives, cutting ingredients with precision rather than tearing them. Created as a woodworking tool, the original zester revolutionized grating in 1994 finding enthusiastic support from professional chefs & culinary enthusiasts.

DISHWASHER SAFE & EASY CLEANING
Graters (excluding Master Series) are dishwasher safe. However, to ensure that the blades stay sharp as long as possible, we recommend washing them by hand.
ADAPTABLE & SAFE PERFORMANCE
Each product we offer comes equipped with a protective cover for increased longevity and ease of storage. Our hand-held paddle graters feature non-slip rubber feet, offering superior stability.
EFFORTLESS GRATING EXPERIENCE
Thanks to the sharpness of our blades, a minimal effort is all it takes for food to glide gently and easily off the blade without needing to apply any pressure.
From the manufacturer
Microplane 3-in-1 Ginger Tool
Peel
Instead of using the edge of a spoon, just use the little plastic nub on the side. Why peel ginger? Peeling ginger reduce the heat of the flavor and keeps the color uniform.
Grate
Creates a perfect Ginger Paste, even better than a Microplane zester.
Slice
The on board slicing tool, lets you slice ginger for garnishing, or for more intense bits of flavor.
Why is Sharper Better?
- Food is grated or zested without ripping or tearing which improves the look of the final dish
- Food is grated or zested without bruising which improves flavor and aroma
- Less pressure is required while grating - making the task faster and more efficient

Grated or Minced GingerPerfect for Curries, and Stir Fry, this result is close to a ginger paste. The moisture, and natural oils stay with the ginger meat. The juice doesn't separate, and no messy strands to clean up. Tip: freeze your ginger root - it makes flaky bits of ginger when grated. |
Sliced GingerUniform pieces can be sliced with the small mandolin like slicer on the base. Green onions, baby carrots, and garlic can be sliced here too. Always keep your fingers safe by using a cut resistant glove. Use slices of ginger for pickling, garnishing, or flavor boosting. |

This grater actually does grate ginger. And if you are like me and keep your fresh ginger in the freezer, no need to thaw that out. Just scrape or use a knife to cut off the skin and then grate it frozen - works very well.
If you don't keep ginger in the freezer and don't use ginger all the time, give it a try. Just put it in a zip top freezer bag and pitch in the freezer, you will always have fresh ginger.
Great tool from the folks at OXO who often come up with excellent tools.
Haven't used the slicing blade as often, but it is also easy to use, the long indentations help guide the ginger.
The lack of a fifth star is because of two things: the grating window size, and how difficult it is to remove/replace the protective plastic on top of the blade. An easier or less dangerous solution would be a nice improvement. (please don't try to remove it with your bare fingers, use a screwdriver, or any other safer tool).
Apart from this hiccup, i strongly recommend this grating/zesting tool.
Also, the slicer works amazingly well, but it’s so razor sharp you have to make sure you keep the plastic protector on it when you’re using the grater. I didn’t find the peeler very useful.
Update, and 5 stars reduced to 3: I got a moderately large piece of ginger, and realized that the grating area is recessed and too small—the ginger root I have hits the raised sides of the grating part without touching the grater. Dumb design. (Also, though I wouldn't take stars off for it, the peeling part is silly—a spoon works better.)
This ginger grater by Microplane has a cutting pattern and sharp edges that can easily cut through tough ginger fibers. Grating ginger is fast and efficient. It is a timesaver in meal prep. And the result is finely shredded ginger, not a soggy puree. If you used ginger often your cooking, you need this. I highly recommend.
PS. Regarding the slicer…I used it once, but found the location (near bottom of device), inconvenient, and slices too thick for what I prefer. If you need thick slices of ginger, it will be a boon to have the slicer on the same tool.

As for the peeler aspect I wouldn’t waste my time. Cumbersome and hard to use, stick to the teaspoon method.
Perfektes Ergebnis durch die Präzession, auch um Garnituren für den Teller in Szene zu setzen, der Hauch einer Tonka Bohne zum Beispiel, oder Muskatnuss.
