Using the Ginger Shredder Base

The detachable base of the grater features a specialized surface for shredding ginger. Remove the base from the grater. Rub a piece of peeled ginger against the textured surface of the base in a circular motion to create fine ginger pulp. This base also acts as a convenient container for collecting grated ingredients.

Maintenance and Cleaning

The Cuisipro 4-Sided Box Grater is dishwasher safe. For best results and to maintain blade sharpness, rinse the grater immediately after use to remove food particles. Place it in the dishwasher or wash by hand with warm, soapy water. Exercise caution when cleaning the sharp blades. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

Troubleshooting

• Food sticking to blades: Ensure the grater is clean before use. For softer foods, try chilling them slightly before grating.
• Grater slipping during use: Verify the non-slip base is securely attached and placed on a dry, stable surface.
• Blades seem dull: Cuisipro blades are designed for long-lasting sharpness. If performance degrades, ensure proper cleaning and storage. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the blades.
