Kitchen Zester | Micro-blades for citrus fruits

A kitchen zester for citrus fruits and fine preparations

This kitchen zester is designed to remove thin strips of zest from lemons, oranges, and other citrus fruits. Its micro-blades also allow for the preparation of ingredients such as Parmesan, ginger, or chocolate, depending on the texture of the food and the grating surface.

The quantity and fineness obtained depend on the pressure applied, the condition of the blade, and the food used. Always wash citrus fruits before zesting them, especially when the skin is intended for consumption.

How to zest a citrus fruit

1. Hold the clean, dry fruit and grip the zester by its handle.
2. Slide the citrus fruit over the micro-blades with light, even pressure.
3. Gradually turn the fruit to remove only the colored part of the skin.
4. Avoid pressing into the white pith located beneath the zest, as this can add a bitter note.
5. Use the zest immediately or store it in a clean, closed container according to your recipe.

Other possible preparations

Depending on the texture of the food and the design of the grater, the zester can be used for preparing Parmesan, ginger, chocolate, or small quantities of spices. Work with suitable foods and stop if the tool catches or if significant pressure becomes necessary.

For firm foods, use a stable board or container and keep your hand behind the cutting area. Do not attempt to grate an item that is too small by holding it close to the micro-blades.

Usage precautions

The micro-blades are sharp. Keep your fingers away from the active surface, never test the sharpness with your hand, and do not point the tool toward your fingers. Use the designated handle and place the zester on a stable surface when not in use.

Do not leave the tool in the sink and store it out of the reach of children. Check the condition of the handle and micro-blades before each use. Do not use the zester if it is cracked, deformed, or if a part is coming loose.

Cleaning and storage

Clean the zester immediately after use to prevent residues from drying between the micro-blades. Rinse it carefully, use a small brush if necessary, then dry it completely. Check the manufacturer's recommendations before using a dishwasher and avoid abrasive products.

Store it in a drawer or with an appropriate cover so that the micro-blades do not snag hands or other utensils.
