If you have spent hours making the best pasta and the best sauce, you certainly want freshly grated Parmesan cheese to top it off. Why buy the pre-grated cheese that has lost much of its flavor when you can grate it at home?
Admittedly, the home grater can be one of the most aggravating utensils in the kitchen. We, at Best Pasta Machine, agree that freshly grated Parmesan cheese offers the best flavor and we agree that until we discovered this new little gadget, we hated grating! How many times have we skinned our knuckles or lost part of the cheese to spills?
Grate and Shake
How cool is this little gadget? The grater is attached to the container! Grating the Parmesan could not be easier. The little container catches the grates and with the small opening above the grater, it is easy to shake the cheese right onto the pasta.
To make the Grate and Shake more impressive (to us) it is stainless steel and silicone. After using all you want, just refrigerate the leftovers.
