Viral Kitchen Hack: Does This Lemon Grating Trick Really Work?

A new kitchen hack circulating online, shared by HelloFreshNL, promises to simplify the process of grating lemons and other ingredients. The technique involves covering a box grater with parchment paper, secured by rubber bands, to collect zest or grated food directly, aiming to reduce mess and waste. The video demonstrates a person grating a lemon, with the zest accumulating neatly on the paper. The paper is then easily removed, allowing for quick transfer of the zest onto a cake, which is shown beautifully adorned with the fresh lemon zest and pistachios. While visually appealing, the hack has sparked discussion among viewers. Some users praised its ingenuity, while others expressed skepticism. Comments on the video suggest that the paper may not stay in place or could tear during grating, potentially mixing paper fragments with the food. "It doesn't work. The paper/cloth doesn't stay put and also tears from the grater. The flakes then get into your grated lemon," one user commented. Another suggested, "It works better without paper." This mixed feedback highlights the importance of testing such hacks thoroughly before fully adopting them in the kitchen.
