Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I used a simple bamboo ginger grater for years, but the teeth started breaking off regularly. When trying to find a replacement, I couldn't find the bamboo type anywhere. I searched on Amazon and came across this grater.
In concept, you simply grate the ginger over the teeth and use the brush to collect the gratings. Any juices are captured in the well too. This seems simple enough in concept, so I decided to give it a try.
I put this grater to the test the evening it arrived in the mail. I prepared my ginger and began grating. The teeth do a great job on the ginger, and the juice collected in the well. Then I use the brush to collect the ginger gratings. It seems the bamboo brush is this products main weakness, as it doesn't work. When the ginger stuck to my old grater, I would give it a few taps on the cutting board and be done with it. This grater being porcelain, I tried doing the same lightly but feared it will break. I collected what ginger I could, and washed out the rest.
This product does an excellent job of grating ginger, and is easy to clean up. However the included bamboo brush is useless. Without being able to reasonably collect the grated ginger, this product doesn't make the cut. I have since replaced it with a ginger grater from Williams Sonoma.
PROS:
Grates ginger with ease
Includes a well to capture juices
Easy to clean
CONS:
Ginger gets stuck in the teeth
