Microplane – Garlic Mincer

Microplane was founded when a Canadian housewife commandeered one of her husband’s favourite woodworking tools to create the lightest, most wonderful orange zest she could have ever imagined for her Armenian orange cake.



Fast-forward twenty years, and the Microplane grater is a must-have for every kitchen. Using a signature chemical process to create ultra-sharp cutting edges, Microplane graters have distinguished themselves from other graters as they cut through hard and soft foods without tearing or shredding.

Vampires (and those who can’t stand the smell of garlic on their fingers) will love the Garlic Mincer: a clever Microplane invention that quickly and easily cuts garlic with photo-etched, ultra-sharp stainless steel blades. Able to hold up to three pieces of garlic, it’s dishwasher safe and gives you much grater control of your grating – it even collects the gratings in the bottom of the container for you.
