I almost posted a recipe that called for 1 teaspoon grated finger. Who would want to eat that?

Bon Appetit Hon 
Odd you should mention this!
Last week I used one of these darlin’ things for the first time. the recipe called for 1 tsp of orange zest. I could find no simpler way to acquire said zest than to zest it myself
I now understand the grated finger part!
My microplane zester is one of my favorite things. Best $20 I could have spent.
