I do in the kitchen without combiners and blenders, one simple grater is enough, the main thing is to be able to use it competently.

Take sandpaper with a large grain (quickly notice the result) and fold in several layers. This will make it easier to hold in your hand.



Drive sandpaper from right to left and from left to right. Alternately sharpen each row of cutting edges and do not rush.



To sharpen the whole grater will take at least 10 minutes.

At the bottom of almost every ceramic mug there is an abrasive ring that can be used to sharpen kitchen tools.



Turn the mug upside down. Three graters on the abrasive surface for a few minutes. Check the degree of sharpening by trying to rub the tomato. It is soft and will rub well only on a sharp surface.

This method is long and time-consuming, but at the same time quite effective. You're gonna need a profile and a knife. Manually sharpen the inside of each tooth grater. A knife will be needed to straighten the shape of the deformed teeth.



In conclusion, we say that sandpaper allows you to sharpen the grater easily and efficiently, but this usually takes a long time.



The mug is also easy to use, but sharpens not so well. And the superfile leaves the teeth the sharpest, but the simplicity and speed of sharpening can not boast. You can choose what to use as usual.

Everyone knows that the side with large holes is designed to rub vegetables on a salad or pizza cheese. It is more difficult with the appointment of small convex holes. They are designed to prepare vegetable and fruit puree, grinding crackers and nuts, removing peel from lemon. With this side of the grater, scales can be removed from the fish.



The side of the grater with oblong holes is an ideal assistant in the preparation of potato chips and vegetable salads. It makes it easy to mash cabbage or cut any product in thin slices of the same thickness.



Many questions raise the problem of sticking to the grater of soft and melted cheese. You can avoid it if you smear the grater on both sides with vegetable oil. In this case, the cheese chips will not stick together, and the grater after use will remain clean.
