The Microplane Grate & Shake is the ultimate tool for fresh spice enthusiasts. Specifically designed for nutmeg, cinnamon, or nuts, it features Microplane's world-famous photo-etched stainless steel blades, which shear the ingredient instead of tearing it, releasing its full aroma and essential oils. Its unique design allows you to grate directly over your dish or cocktail while storing whole spices in its airtight top compartment. The silicone base ensures a firm grip and comfortable, slip-free use.
