Food processors don’t produce the even shred that we like for salads or toppings or whatever. Sometimes you just have to grate by hand, which can be a tricky endeavor when you get down to the stubs…no one wants to waste so much or have grated fingertips in their food! Here’s a super solution: Go to a sewing-supplies store, and get thimbles that fit the fingers that are in jeopardy each time you use your grater…usually your thumb, index and middle fingers. With the thimbles in place, you’ll be able to grate faster and more completely—no more leftover stubs of potato, carrot or cheese!
