The KitchenAid Gourmet Box Grater in Black is a signature kitchen tool built for cooks who demand both performance and precision. Rooted in KitchenAid's decades-long heritage as an iconic partner in culinary creativity, this box grater brings professional-grade functionality to your everyday cooking routine. Whether you are shredding sharp cheddar for a charcuterie spread, finely grating Parmesan over fresh pasta, slicing vegetables for a stir-fry, or zesting citrus for a baked dessert, this grater delivers consistent, reliable results every single time. Four distinct grating and slicing surfaces give you complete control over texture and cut. Use the coarse grater for shredding mozzarella or cheddar, the medium grater for carrots and zucchini, the fine grater for hard cheeses and ginger, and the slicer for thin, even cuts of cucumber, potato, or fennel. Each surface is crafted from high-quality stainless steel that stays sharp through repeated use and resists dulling over time. One of the standout features of this box grater is the detachable measuring container at the base. As you grate, ingredients fall directly into the container, keeping your cutting board and countertop clean. The container features clearly marked measurements at 1/2 cup, 1 cup, 1-1/2 cup, and 2 cup increments, so you always know exactly how much you have grated without reaching for a separate measuring cup. When you are done, simply snap on the included lid and store your prepped ingredients directly in the freezer or refrigerator - the container is freezer and microwave safe for maximum convenience. Important sizing note: This is a full-size countertop box grater. Please review the product dimensions carefully on this listing before purchasing. Some shoppers find the overall footprint larger than expected, while others note it is more compact than a standard restaurant-style grater. Checking the listed dimensions ensures it will fit your drawer, cabinet, or countertop storage setup without any surprises. The soft-grip handle at the top of the grater provides a secure, comfortable hold during extended grating sessions, reducing hand fatigue and giving you steady control over every stroke. The sleek black finish complements modern kitchen aesthetics and pairs beautifully with other KitchenAid tools and appliances. Cleanup is effortless - the grater, container, and lid are all dishwasher safe, so you spend less time scrubbing and more time enjoying the meals you create. From weeknight dinners to weekend entertaining, the KitchenAid Gourmet Box Grater is the versatile, durable kitchen tool that belongs in every home cook's collection.
