Great Kitchen Tool: Provencal Garlic Grater




I got this in Provence in the South of France last spring, its great for grating cloves of garlic when cooking. It really releases the garlics oil and aroma.

I highly recommend it, Bone Appetit

Have a wonderful weekend

  3. That looks as decorative as it is useful. It is the type of tool that you can keep out and not stuff it away in a drawer.

  7. Love that grater. Functional and pretty too. The one I have currently doesn't do such a great job at grating garlic. I hope to make it to Provence one day and I'll have to remember to look one up. :)

  10. I have been converted to these for a long time, so much so that I sell them in the UK!!Fantastic if used with a silicone peeler and a tiny brush that gets the garlic off the dish really easily!! Try putting olive oil, balsamic or flavoured oils in the centre with the grated garlic and you have a super dip with croutons or crudites
