This may be a silly question, but here goes: I see recipes (like this one for zucchini muffins) which state to grate so many cups of an ingredient. I have one of those old box graters (about 30 years old) with a different size hole on each side. How do you know which side to use? Will it effect the end result if you use the wrong grating side? This has actually stopped me from making some things, since I don't know how large or small the grated item needed to be or if it really makes a difference. Thanks for your help on this! The four sided graters tend to have ultra-coarse, coarse, and fine graters, plus a slicer for sides. On the wide sides of your grater, you will have small holes, and then those larger holes. You are going to want to use those larger holes for this recipe, to grate. It makes a difference in the resulting consistency. Hope that helps! ~Jessica@KAF
