MICROPLANE ZESTER/GRATER

Having a microplane grater, also called a “zester,” can be a huge asset in the kitchen, as it can handle zesting citrus, hard cheese, ginger, nutmeg, and even chocolate. For easy storage, this grater has a hole in the handle so you can hang it on a hook or knife rack. It’s also dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning after each use. “This tool is almost literally a life-changer. So easy to use and does a beautiful job,” said a tester. amazon.com, $15.99
