This cute little plate is a grater mainly used for ginger.

The boat-shaped plate is made of sturdy Banko ware and is thick and appropriately heavy. Banko ware's durability makes it a perfect base for a grater. Small spikes are evenly lined up on the plate to finely grate small pieces of ginger. And the spikes are sharp so that you will not have to remove the fibers of the ginger after grating. 

Grated ginger is used quite often in authentic Japanese dishes. Grated, it can be used as a condiment for sashimi, also as a topping for fried tofu. The juices of grated ginger is added to soups and stewed vegetables to add a bit of zest.
This grater is the perfect item that will assist you in upgrading your home-cooked Japanese menus.  

It's a very functional item and blends in well with other pieces of tableware on the table. 

Banko ware is sturdy and easy to care for. The black shiny coat and the simple shape of the grater makes it an item perfect for a Japanese style meal. Functional yet stylish, the key features of Nichijou-Sahanki.
