Small ones are more useful

A couple of Christmases ago, as a last-minute stocking filler, my sister gave me this teeny tiny grater. And, despite my initial thoughts being something along the lines of “Er, okaaay…”, it’s actually been one of the most useful things in my kitchen.

I have discovered that it is the only way to deal with fresh ginger, grating it into perfect little shreds, while leaving those nasty stringy bits behind. And, as for garlic… well, you’ll never use those difficult-to-clean presses again.

So, in case I didn’t sound grateful enough at the time – thanks Sis!
