right we’re going to talk about
different ways of grating and shaving
vegetables one essential piece of
kitchen kit is a microplane this isn’t
here it’s just it’s like it looks like a
grater but it shaves much much more
finely and more accurately they’re
available in very different sizes of
great and so each one has got particular
uses the fine one here I love to use for
nutmeg oh no you do really just grate
like that up and down you get a really
beautiful fine fine fine great nutmeg
tap the microplane after you’ve used it
so everything falls off the bank this is
also really good for lemon zest it
shaves is really really delicately
finally again what template make sure we
got all the zest off that’s a fine one
medium side one is great for chins
especially over the top of off cook
dishes like pasta and stuff often I
plate all the spaghetti or the pasta or
the soup up and then just grate this
over the top and it’s so much nicer than
grating at first and then sprinkling on
because you get to keep these beautiful
little curls on top they look really
cool them you can also use cheese on
this big one here which cuts much wider
ribbons and see that it’s also good for
chocolate chocolate looks great on you
shave it like that these beautiful curls
there this middle sized one here is
really good too for garlic we get a peel
garlic clove and you don’t want to wait
around to chop it fine you can do it
great
on one of these beautifully shaved fine
garlic you can do that straight into the
pan or if you put the pan on I have the
oil in it you can grate straight in
really easy you’ve got to make sure that
you clean your I complain afterwards
obviously because you have got raw
garlic on it okay you can also do
carrots root vegetables and things like
that if you’re making a salad a little
shavings of carrot it’s also nice to
finish plates with if you’re making a
salad or something great little shavings
of carrot over the top just slightly
bigger stuff bigger savings if you want
on the coarser microplane alright and
don’t forget the little humble sweet
peeling either because this you know
it’s what people just use to peel the
vegetables but don’t forget you there’s
so much more to it than that you can you
can prank vegetables with it so this
count is already peeled and I’m cutting
it into lovely little strips with this
peeler now that’s a lovely addition to a
salad speed peeler is really
multifunctional ankle good next thing is
there’s little friends here this is a
plastic mandolin and what it is is its
edge here that you can slide vegetables
down against and it cuts into strips
salt carrot for example tossed into
beautiful slices like that slightly
thicker then you would get weather with
a speed peeler what oh my god been down
to the grind the reminder figures
we get down towards the end of the
county have to be very careful when you
get towards the end what to do is
actually push it with your fingers up
like the wing so there’s no chance of
you getting caught by that little blade
there excellent these lovely shavings
really nice and the salad or steamed
something like that this one is very
similar except it’s got an additional
sort of set of ridges here that means
that when you put the carrot through you
get long domestics it’s those slices see
that yeah
very use exactly the same way when you
get down to the end fingers out the way
just to be safe these lovely matchsticks
that’s fantastic just added into a green
salad for a little bit of color a little
bit of crunch daddy use it
no don’t forget there’s micro-planes
fantastic and you can do all these great
things with them but they are quite
expensive if your budget doesn’t run to
it box craters are a really good
alternative this one is quite fancy it’s
got six cutting signs but the four-sided
one is every bit as good and they’re
very versatile too people think they’re
only really just for Kings but you can
do cheese you can do potatoes you can do
any of this stuff with a box grater you
can cut with a thick side you can cut
potatoes for dolphin worms things like
that so they’re really good investment
if you don’t have that if you can
stretch to buying the full kit of micro
planes these things are really good too
they’re not too expensive they’re quite
hard to find but if you look online you
can normally track the knees down and
simplest the most economical of all is a
trusty speed peeler it does much more
than peel vegetables
okay that’s grating and shaving
