Zyliss SmoothGlide Rasp Grater: This grater didn’t have enough teeth and the bend in the handle made grating lemons awkward and uncomfortable when held upside down.Mixologist Eamon Rockey General Manager and author of the beverage program Michelin-s "Working with Microplane means working with the industry standard for quality, precision and comfort.

The best rasp-style graters have teeth that are large and high enough that they zest and grate with ease, but not so raised they they dig into the white pith of citrus or require you use more force when grating or zesting. It's also worth noting that our top pick, the Microplane Premium Classic Series Zester/Grater, has teeth that wrap around the edges, giving you an all-over useable surface. A Microplane has small, sharp notches that result in finely grated results; they are commonly used for zesting citrus or getting fluffy flecks of hard cheeses, like Parmesan. It had teeth that wrapped around the edges of the rasp, allowing you to grate and zest small or hard-to-reach spots. In general, we liked rasp-style graters that were one to one-and-a-half inches wide, which gave us a nice surface area to work with.

The rasp's end also had two small rubber feet, which added stability when used at an angle on a surface like a cutting board. Whether it is bottarga, cheese, black truffle, or radish, the Microplane always provides you with the right cut. Microplane Elite Series Grater: Like the other Microplane graters, this rasp-style grater performed fine, but the plastic frame that the blade was set in felt clunky and took up more space in the cabinet.
