Radish Grater

Makoto Koizumi for Kihara

• Introduction

  I am a Radish Grater. I'm grating my way to greatness.

    

• Curator's Notes 

   

  One of the most popular vegetables in Japan is the daikon radish, commonly found grated raw as a refreshing condiment in various meat and fish dishes. This method of preparing the daikon has been around since the Edo Period of the 1600s, as the vegetable is a natural source of enzymes that aid in digestion, and is delicious paired with rich, oily-heavy ingredients like mackerel or steaks. Enter the radish grater, perfectly tailored by designer Makoto Koizumi for your radish-grating needs! Jagged porcelain teeth grind down the daikon to just the right consistency, and the basin on the end catches the fruits of your labor.
