OXO’s Zester is yet another handy tool to keep in the kitchen, especially if you love making citrus concoctions. While it’s listed as a lemon zester, keep in mind that it’s not limited solely to lemons, of course. They’re the most common citrus flavor fruit, and if you’re partial to oranges or limes, you just won’t see anything out there called a “lime zester.” Prejudiced, but oh well.
The OXO Good Grips Zester is its own multi-tool, actually. You can use it to grind the peel from the fruit as well as garnish what’s left over. Five Zester holes on the end of the tool get the job done quickly and easily. On the back of the tool you’ll find a small garnishing channel knife so you can add decorative touches as you see fit.
The Zester is dishwasher safe, and comes with a large eyelet hole at the end of the handle so you can hang it in your kitchen for easy access.
And the tool is durably made. All the metal hardware is fashioned from pure stainless steel. The rubber handle is durable as well, but the main highlight of a Good Grips handle isn’t its durability of course. They’re known for exceptional comfort.
What might surprise you if you’re not already aware of this is that the Good Grips handles are also known for exceptional health. They’re award recipients of the Tylenol Arthritis Foundation Design Award. Protecting your hands and wrists from overexposure to harsh surfaces is very important, not something to be taken lightly. We’re glad OXO agrees.
