Grippy Rind Graters

The PalmZester Fits on Your Hand to More Effectively Tackle Fruit

— April 30, 2013 — Art & Design
Dealing with the peels of citrus fruits can make for tricky tasks, and the PalmZester renders the process much easier. Without the awkward setup and the significant risk of grated hands, this culinary contraption helps you to prepare recipes more efficiently.

David Hull's design integrates a dual-edged grater that's set into a plastic cap. This connects to and encloses a small compartment with a pair of bands that wrap comfortably around three fingers. This cuff facilitates the secure handling of the PalmZester in your dominant hand so that you can carry on with back and forth motions over the lemon, lime or orange in your other hand. The fine shavings collect inside of the PalmZester and can be easily uncovered and dumped into your flavor-craving supper.

2. Culinary Gadgets - Innovative food preparation gadgets like the PalmZester have the potential to disrupt the culinary gadget industry by offering unique and practical features.
3. Cooking Appliances - Integrating efficient recipe execution features into cooking appliances can create disruptive opportunities in the cooking appliance industry, making the cooking process more streamlined and convenient.
