Best Graters, Peelers, and Slicers
Sure, you can grate cheese, chocolate, carrots, and potatoes on the ubiquitous box grater found in most kitchens. But aside from choosing how big or small you want your pieces to be, the versatility ends there. You want thin slices? You need a different tool for that. Want to make noodles out of a zucchini? You need a different tool for that, too. And while having a specialty tool to help you yield your desired result always helps, there's something to be said for multi-tools that can help you perform restaurant-quality grates, peels, and slices all in one device. So the next time you're following a recipe that requires razor thin slices of radish, ultra-fin grated garlic, or spiraled ribbons of carrot, instead of merely hoping you have the right tools for the job, wouldn't it be better to know you can pull out a single tool that performs all the jobs? We thought so, too. Take a look at some of the best graters, peelers, and slicers we found in our search for the best kitchen gadgets. We’ve compiled our favorites below.
