I've Got the Gadget for You!

I was making Kim's Strawberries N' Cream Cupcakes when I realized that this would be the perfect gadget to tell you about.


Can you see it? It is perfect for zesting lemons! In fact it's called a Microplane Zester. If you don't have one you need to go get yourself one.

See how fine it zests the lemon? To perfection! You can't even tell that there is lemon zest in the recipe. Go take a look here if you are interested in one.

I LOVE my microplane! I not only use it for zesting lemons but I NEVER chop garlic anymore because I just run them over the zester and POOF! Its done. I HATE chopping garlic so my zester is my pal! Its also good to shave chocolate with. I Love my microplane so much I bought a four sided box grater made by them too. Its fabulous as well!

So. . . I'm thinking this would be appropriate at X-mas. Hint, hint . . .

I've seen these before but never found one in the store to call my own. :)

My cooking teacher has one of those and I have coveted it ever since!

I have a couple different sizes of microplane graters and I love them! Not only do they easily grate all sorts of things, from citrus peels to parmesan cheese, they are far easier to clean and more compact than the old graters I had. Definitely a can't-do-without cooking tool now!
