My Favorite Things: Microplane Zester

Kitchen gadgets can make life so much easier.  This is the case with the handy dandy Microplane zester.      


Tonight I will be preparing a delicious mushroom risotto (recipe HERE) and will be using my Microplane zester to grate the requisite 1/2 cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano.  It also comes in handy when zesting citrus and grating ginger.  The ginger photo below is from my adventures with Tikka Masala (recipe found HERE).  A word of caution:  Please pay attention while you are using the zester as the teeth are very sharp.  The Microplane zester is available HERE or HERE.
