HZ Tried & Tested: Joseph Joseph Multi-Grate Paddle Grater Detailed Review

There are some kitchen tools I can't imagine my life without. After all, cooking is so much fun and easy with the right tools around. No? Among my kitchen must-haves is a grater. You can't really underestimate this kitchen tool. From shredding cheese for your homemade pizza to grating ginger for your special cup of tea, it does it all.

If I talk of graters, let me share that I have invested in almost all of them, the regular handy grater, the box grater with multiple blades. However, I never found that perfect one.

This time, I got my hands on this multi-grate from Joseph Joseph. Did it work for me? Read my detailed review.

Claims

This compact grater features two styles of grating blades in one design, saving valuable drawer space. The coarse blade is ideal for grating firm cheeses and vegetables, whilst the fine blade is perfect for hard cheeses like parmesan and citrus fruits. The paddle design makes it easy to grate directly over plates and the non-slip tip provides extra grip if resting on the worktop whilst grating.

My Experience

One of the biggest challenges when it comes to using a grater is the tip. When we use the grater in our kitchen on a regular basis, we use it to grate a lot of things and most of the time directly on our plates. It can become quite a difficult task to use them over some plates because the tip is slippery. However, this one comes with a non-slip tip.

Also, there are times when the handle is too delicate or thin to hold and grate things like hard cheeses. That's not the case with this one because it comes with a thick handle. It gives a good, easy grip to hold the grater over any plate and to use for any kind of food.

I find this multi-grate from Joseph Joseph much better than those box graters which occupy a lot of space and also hard to clean. This grater comes with both fine and coarse blades which makes it a win-win combo. Since it is compact, it is easier to wash and store. Talking of storage, I love the fact that it has a protective sheath which promises safe storage and also gives the tool a longer life.
