0900 NUTMEG GRATER

Absolutely essential if you want the true nutmeg flavour, as ground nutmeg loses certain essential oils so quickly that you should always grate only as much off the whole nutmeg as is needed immediately. The grater is pressed stainless steel, with a storage compartment in the top for the partly used nutmeg. (Shipping weight 30 g.)

If you use much nutmeg, you will find a lot less wear and tear on the fingertips with this than with a grater. Clear acrylic with a metal stem and handle, about 10 cm high, 6 cm diameter. (Shipping weight 125 g.)

Mortars and Pestles: No medieval kitchen is properly equipped without at least one mortar and pestle, to pulverize spices and other ingredients such as bread crumbs. Even in modern kitchens, still the best tool for many of these tasks.
