This is sturdy and works well!
This ginger grater works well for both garlic and ginger. I use a lot of both in my cooking, and have kids in the kitchen who also like to use this product. First, it is STURDY. I actually tried to use this aggressively to see if I could get it to bend..and there was not a chance of that happening. This is is one of those kitchen tools that will last years. When grating garlic, we preferred the press and rock method. But sure you start with peeled garlic! I found that with ginger, it was best to grate it as opposed to pressing and rocking.<br /><br />One thing I like a great deal about this product is that if you want your item to be chopped finer, you can just press and rock it a few more times...easy and really gets to what you want for your recipe. It is also really safe if you have kids helping you in your kitchen. Both my 9 and 12 year olds were able to use this with ease and found it fun. There are no truly sharp edges to cut any little fingers. This is simple, and no fuss..does what it should and appears built to last.<br /><br />I would love to see some instructions added to this product. It is pretty straightforward, yes, but asking around, not many people in my region would know what this is or how to use it. I think instructions would be very helpful. This uses minimal packaging, which is a plus, but a short instruction sheet added would be great!<br /><br />I received this product for review and evaluation purposes.
