A sad day, indeed…

…since one of our favorite kitchen tools has broken in two. It’s one of our fine Microplane graters that has decided to call it quits. The handle has broken away from the grater right where the rubberized part is attached. And it’s not the first time. The same thing has happened once before. That time we got a replacement grater from the Microplane representative and after some time also an explanation from the Microplane engineers. Apparently the break that time happened because the clear plastic used for some reason did not work well with Swedish (or European) machine wash powders. This was almost three years ago, and the replacement grater has weathered countless washes since then. Until yesterday. We have another grater of the same type from Microplane, and we’re going to keep it out of the dishwasher from now on. We’ll try to get in touch with Microplane to see what they have to say.brbr
