Experience the Taste and Aroma of Freshly-Grated Ingredients...Effortlessly and Elegantly
Easy to grate, bladeless design. Safe to use, and easy to clean.
Four Key Features
Safe, Smooth, and Waste-Free — Even for Small Ingredients
Conventional graters with sharp blades often make it difficult to grate ingredients down to the very end, being inefficient, uncomfortable, and even dangerous to use. The Tomita Grater features specially designed, rounded protrusions that are gentle to the touch, allowing you to safely and completely grate even small foods like garlic.
Fresh Flavor, Grated Right at the Table
Thoughtfully designed with a raised, plate-like rim, the Tomita Grater is perfect for tabletop use.
When you fancy a touch more condiment mid-meal, simply grate it right at the table,
Enjoy the bright aroma and taste of freshly-grated ingredients—wasabi, ginger, daikon radish, and many other favorites—exactly when you want them.
Easy to Clean, Always Hygienic
Do you find graters difficult to wash?
With the Tomita Grater, cleaning is made so much easier. Its smooth surface allows the sponge to glide across seamlessly, reaching every corner without snagging.
Made of stainless steel, it resists food residue and odor transfer, preserving the pure taste of your ingredients—all while keeping your grater clean, hygienic, and ready for the next meal.
No Tray Needed — Less to Wash, Easy to Store
Unlike ordinary graters that come with a separate tray, the Tomita Grater works perfectly on its own, saving you time and space.
Its slim, minimalist form makes it easy to handle, and simple to store.
Development Story
A grater is an essential kitchen tool that can enhance the flavor and aroma of dishes by producing freshly-grated condiments. Yet many conventional graters are hard to clean and often intimidating to use, especially when grating small ingredients.
The Tomita Grater was created to solve for the limitations of conventional graters, eliminating sharp blades while keeping performance smooth and satisfying, so that everyone from children to seniors can enjoy preparing flavorful, fragrant, freshly-grated ingredients and enjoy delicious meals together.

The “Ajiro Pattern” for Smooth, Fragrant, and Safe Grating

Without sharp blades, it’s safe to touch and easy to wash with a sponge—while drawing out the full aroma and flavor of each ingredient.
