Still, the fourth side? The most delicate cheese strands are produced by this seemingly little component of the grater. Look no further if you’ve ever wanted to know how to make hard cheese that looks and tastes like the pre-grated kind found in grocery store plastic tubs or cardboard cans. If you want your cheese to melt into sauces, salad dressings, and casseroles with ease, use the fourth side of the grater to get the texture you need.

Visualize how easy it would be to zest citrus for a blast of flavor or grate nutmeg for an added dose of warmth in your recipes. The unsung hero of these jobs is the fourth side of the cheese grater. Because of its fine grating capability, it is an ideal tool for subtly enhancing the taste of your dishes.

I can’t believe that many people didn’t know the fourth side’s goal before the secret was revealed. When you find that secret compartment in your automobile and start using it, it’s like finding a new game-changer. Things like these make cooking a pleasure and something that everyone can do, regardless of their skill level in the kitchen.
