25 days of giveaways: microplane kitchen bestseller set

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure policy.

Allow me to introduce you to one of my all-time favorite kitchen tools — a Microplane zester! Mine was actually a stocking stuffer from “Santa” years ago when I was graduating from college. I think that he knew better than I did what essentials I would need to stock my first kitchen!! Of course, years and hundreds of zests later, it is definitely the kitchen tool I cannot do without. For zesting fruits, grating herbs and cheese, and so much more, it definitely works like a pro.

Then about a year ago, I picked up one of Microplane’s newer products — an herb mill! What does an herb mill do, you might ask? Quite simply, it finely chops fresh herbs! And it does a great job!! I use mine constantly, especially when garnishing a dish. (Check out what a great job it did on this pizza). Best of all, it is quick, simple to clean, and a nice alternative to chopping a zillion herbs by hand. Love it. Love Microplane!

So enter the giveaway to win a pair of your own zester and herb mill! Or if you already have one, I happen to know that they make great gifts or stocking stuffers… :)

  1. As a recent college graduate myself – just this semester – I am also in the process of stocking my kitchen with the necessary items. I am also replacing my old, dented pots and pans and looking for a new set of pans. (what’s that?!) I have never heard of Microplane before, but I now know what type of products I will be looking for! I just checked out their website, and I know where my first paycheck will be spent! How did I live without them? I absolutely love to cook, and have been trying my hand at baking recently, too. Zesting is just not happening with my hand grater, which is what I currently attempt to use. The herb mill is also a GREAT idea! I have a small hern garden at my house and I love to cook with fresh herbs. The folks at Microplane are pure genius! Thanks for showing me what a fabulous company they are :)
