Product Information
The aroma and umami of wasabi are determined by how it's grated. Chojiro's shark skin grater uses "real shark skin", which has been used by sushi chefs for generations. It brings out the original aroma and smooth texture of genuine wasabi. 【Why shark skin?】 Metal graters crush the fibers of wasabi. As a result, the aroma is lost, and only the spiciness stands out. On the other hand, shark skin "cuts" the fibers without crushing them, which means: ・Aroma is enhanced ・Less off-flavors ・Smooth texture This is why chefs choose shark skin. 【Features of Kyori】 Each grater is carefully crafted by artisans using carefully selected genuine shark skin. Its rounded shape fits comfortably in the hand, and you can grate surprisingly finely with light pressure. It preserves the rich aroma and stimulating spiciness inherent to wasabi, elevating your everyday dishes to a higher level of taste. It features a consistent grating experience and finish that cannot be achieved with mass-produced items. 【How it changes your cooking】 Even with the same fresh wasabi, the taste changes completely when grated with shark skin. Not just for sashimi, but also for soba, chilled tofu, steak, etc., it tightens up the overall impression of the dish. 【Size and ease of use】 The "small" size is a trial size. It's easy to handle for small households or those who grate small amounts of condiments. It's easy for first-time shark skin grater users to incorporate. 【Recommended for】・Those who want to truly savor fresh wasabi ・Those who want to elevate the quality of their cooking ・Those looking for authentic tools that can be used for a long time Simply changing your tools can transform your dining experience this much. Please experience "why shark skin" with your own taste buds.
How to Grate Fresh Wasabi
1: Scrape off the leafy part 2: Roughly peel off the knots 3: Wash with a brush 4: Grate in a circular motion from the leafy end Tips ・Grate slowly in a circular motion without applying too much force, as if drawing a "no" character. When it becomes finely textured, sticky, and creamy, delicious wasabi is ready. ・Can be used not only for wasabi, but also for vegetables like green onions and carrots, and fruits like apples. The ingredients melt like snow, becoming a light mousse-like consistency between pulp and juice, so adding it just before serving can impart a pleasant aroma and refreshing sensation.

【Precautions】
●The color may appear different from the actual product depending on your monitor. ●After each use, rinse quickly with water and dry in the shade. If the grater board contains moisture and is used repeatedly multiple times a day, the skin may become damp and peel off easily. Soaking in hot or cold water or drying in direct sunlight can cause peeling. Do not soak in water or hot water. ●If the wood and skin remain wet for a long time every day, the shark skin and wood may be damaged. Also, after drying, the wood may crack or warp. Occasionally let the shark skin grater board rest and dry in the shade. ●Genuine shark skin is a natural, high-quality skin, and the texture may vary slightly in some areas. ★If you use it frequently, the secret to longevity is to alternate between two shark skin graters.
