Microplane, the story
Microplane, a story ... of success! While it is true that the U.S.-based brand was born in 1967, the turning point came in 1994, when a housewife disappointed with her grater decided to try one of her husband's woodworking tools, a Microplane wood rasp, and discovered that its tiny, razor-sharp blades also finely cut and grated food, boosting sales even in the man's Toronto store. Recognized worldwide as a pioneer company in the production of photo-etched graters, Microplane created a new standard in the manufacturing process, chemical photo-etching, specializing in creating durable and extremely sharp blades.
Microplane's photo-chemical etching.
The cutting edges of the blades are created by " photo-etching," or Microplane photo-etching, a procedure that the American company has optimized in its more than half-century of existence and that leads Microplane graters to differ markedly from traditional graters. For the production of its photo-etched graters, Microplane uses only stainless steel, the same steel it uses to create its own steel tools, for blades that are of higher quality and more durable over time, as well as always keeping up with the times in terms of design and innovation.
The Microplane Catalog
With its wide range of products, the Microplane catalog manages to satisfy an ever-increasing number of requests, as the American brand's innovative drive is also based on interaction with cooks, customers and kitchen experts, seeking solutions that put joy and convenience in cooking first. In that sense, all Microplane products are beautiful but above all practical: dishwasher safe, with durable blades, ergonomic handles, non-slip feet that provide stability, and plastic covers that allow for safe storage.
Microplane graters
Among Microplane's tools, the lion's share are Microplane graters, which, with their small, sharp blades, cut food precisely but without crushing or tearing it, so that the aromas and flavors are released in their entirety. The U.S. company's graters come in a range of blades, so that each offers the best result in its category: alongside the spice grinder set, to the herb grinder and the vegetable peelersRGMania is proud of its selection, must-haves for both professional chefs and cooking enthusiasts who have earned a permanent place in kitchens and restaurants around the world.
Microplane blades
Microplane blades range from the finest to the thickest, achieve any desired result, and can be used for multiple ingredients: some prefer finely grated cheese, some consistent, and the same goes for many other foods. The important thing is that the food glides lightly over the cutting surface, without the grated part sticking to the blade, effortlessly, efficiently and with pleasure; in this sense Microplane graters offer an ideal result every time for cooking, baking or garnishing, turning dishes into true taste experiences.
