Been able to combine my two loves

I have been making slow cooked lamb with tortellini for tonight's dinner, I hit a snag when I found that my parmesan shaver broke so not to be defeated I wound the frog back on my Stanley No 5 and what do you know perfect shaved parmesan :). I am staggered at the uses I can find for a plane!:D

Thinking of trying the 45, might be able to get an interesting pasta. :rolleyes:

Phil, try your potato peeler next time. :)

You cold end up with a smelly Stanley that attracts mice to the work shop otherwise. :cool:

Have you thought about trying your router?...........

That new Joint Maker Pro from Bridge City Tools (http://www.bridgecitytools.com/Products/What%27s+New/Jointmaker+Pro) would do a pretty thin shaving of parmesan...

I wonder if i could get that past the Finance Minister :D

Cheers,

Microplane rasps work better, unless you actually NEED ribbons of Parmesan for display. Remember, Lee Valley - More specifically Mrs Lee Snr., are indirectly responsible for all those stainless steel graters from Microplane, Cuisinpro etc. And they don't get any credit from the makers.
