Garlic grater in Lecce

The garlic grater is a small ceramic grater, usually flat or slightly concave, with a rough surface in the center that allows garlic to be reduced to a paste by rubbing the clove against it. In Salento it is often handmade and decorated with colorful glazes, Mediterranean motifs, lemons, leaves, or traditional geometric patterns. Its compact size is designed for everyday home use and to be easily brought to the table. It is a simple yet very functional object, typical of southern home cooking where garlic is a fundamental ingredient.
