Japanese Grater

Japanese graters are most often made to grate vegetables like daikon radish, wasabi, garlic, onion, and nagaimo (Chinese yam). The texture is different from a regular grater - instead of thick sticks, the vegetable is grated into a fine texture, almost like a fluffy cloud. It can be used for other vegetables too such as a carrot, if you are making a carrot ginger dressing.
