BergHOFF Leo 9" Multifunctional Grater, Blue

The BergHOFF Leo 9" multifunctional grater replaces three separate tools. Different cutting surfaces handle fine and coarse grating plus slicing, so one compact grater covers cheese, ginger, garlic, carrot, cucumber and citrus zest.

At 9 inches it stores flat in a drawer, which matters in HDB and condo kitchens where a bulky box grater takes up space you do not have.

Key features

• Multiple grating and slicing surfaces on one tool
• Handles hard cheese, ginger, garlic, root vegetables and zest
• Flat 9 inch profile stores easily in a drawer
• Part of the BergHOFF Leo range

Frequently asked questions

What can I use a multifunctional grater for?
Fine grating for hard cheese, garlic, ginger and citrus zest; coarse grating for cheddar, carrot and potato; and slicing for cucumber and similar vegetables. One tool covers what would otherwise need a zester, a grater and a mandoline.

Is a flat grater better than a box grater?
A flat grater stores more easily and is simpler to clean, which suits smaller kitchens. A box grater is more stable for large volumes. For most home cooking in Singapore, a flat grater is the more practical choice.

How do I grate ginger without it clogging?
Use the finest surface, grate in short strokes, and rinse the blade under running water when fibre builds up. Grating ginger while still cold from the fridge also reduces clogging.

How do I clean a grater safely?
Rinse immediately after use before food dries on. Brush along the direction of the blades, not across them, using a washing-up brush rather than a cloth or your fingers.
