Helpful Hints

What is the best way to grate your garlic? Use a microplane! Microplanes can be used for zesting citrus or grating cheese, chocolate or garlic. The microplane is one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. If you don’t have one, I highly recommend picking one up at your local kitchen store. You may even be able to find them at your nearest hardware store (ask for a rasp).
