What's the 4th side on my grater for?!

Slightly dim question probably - but I know someone on here will know instantly!
It's something that has long since confused me - the fourth grating edge on m'grater.
There's a coarse and fine "normal" grating side, there's what I presume is a slicing side - but what is the other side for?
It looks like a really big version of my nutmeg grater - is that what it's for maybe?
I obviously have nothing better to worry about!:rolleyes:

Yes, that's what it's for. My mum used to use it for grating citrus rind -it was rubbish for that mind you. you had to run a knife along the lines to get the rind out.stargirl73 wrote: »

If you wrap greaseproof paper round your grater then grate citrus peel it doesn't get stuck in the wee holes and weirdly the paper doesn't disintegrate either.Works everytime."Sometimes life sucks....but the alternative is unacceptable."0

Thank goodness for microplane graters though -much better for citrus peel, nutmeg and parmesan.0 -

Would that be before or after you've grated the parmesan?
Hell, doesn't matter - it'll be cheesy anyway :rotfl:Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac0
