Installation

Before first use, wash the zester thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse completely and dry. Ensure the protective cover is removed before use and replaced after cleaning for safe storage.

Mode d'emploi

The Microplane Zester is engineered for precision and ease of use. Hold the zester firmly by its ergonomic handle. Position the ingredient against the blade and move it in one direction, applying gentle pressure. The ultra-sharp teeth will grate or zest the ingredient finely.

Applications :

• Zesting Citrus: Glide lemons, limes, oranges, or other citrus fruits across the blade. The design ensures only the flavorful rind is removed, leaving behind the bitter white pith. Zest can enhance vinaigrettes, stir-fries, salads, and baked goods.

Entretien

Nettoyage:

The Microplane Zester is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the sharpness of the blade for as long as possible, hand washing is recommended. Rinse the zester immediately after use. For tough-to-reach particles, use a kitchen brush on the underside of the blade.

Stockage:

Always store the zester with its protective cover in place to prevent accidental cuts and to protect the blade from damage.

Dépannage

This product is designed for simple and reliable operation. Should you encounter any issues, ensure the blade is clean and free of debris. If the grating performance diminishes over time, it may indicate natural wear and tear from extensive use.
