Product Information
The Microplane 3-In-1 Twist & Zest combines a citrus reamer, a zester, and a channel knife for twist garnishes all in a single versatile and convenient kitchen tool! From desserts to savory recipes, this citrus tool has all you need to add bright and fresh flavors to your cooking!
Highly versatile and convenient for baking and cooking sweet and savory dishes that call for citrus, the 3-in-1 Twist & Zest combines a reamer, a zester, and a channel knife for twist garnishes into one durably constructed, space-saving tool. The well designed, transparent reamer at the top of the gadget efficiently extracts juice from citrus fruits and also doubles as a protective cover for the tool's zest blade. The zester features an original Microplane, made in the USA stainless steel blade, which creates finely grated citrus zest without removing the bitter white pith. On the opposite end of the tool, an equally sharp, circular channel knife blade (twist tool) transforms citrus peel into beautiful twist garnishes with ease. The aromatic and flavorful citrus peel twists add panache to desserts, such as cupcakes, tarts, and quick breads, and also make a zesty garnish to savory foods, like roast chicken and steaks. A clear protective cap is included for the twist tool for safety when not used and during storage.

About The Brand
Microplane’s ascent in the culinary field began in the 1990s with the launch of a new type of tool for the company’s successful Woodworking Tools division. The long and narrow, rasp-style tool, featuring hundreds of tiny stainless steel razors was first created to shape or file wood.
The big moment came in 1994, when a Canadian homemaker picked up a new woodworking tool, in complete frustration over using a dull grater for the preparation of an orange cake recipe. Sliding the orange across the Microplane tool, she was amazed at how beautifully it worked, with total ease, speed, and efficiency. At this point, Microplane crossed over from the wood shop to the kitchen and in a short period of time has earned a permanent place in the kitchen. Today, culinary professionals and savvy home cooks consider Microplane to be an essential kitchen tool for food preparation.
Most graters on the market use a stamped metal process. In this process, the teeth are made the same thickness as the rest of the blade. As a result, stamped blades are dull. Microplane utilizes a chemical process called photo-etching that defines and sharpens the edge of each tooth on the grater. The result is a much sharper tooth, and long-lasting, ultra-sharp stainless steel blades, giving you the consumer, a more precise result with far less effort.
