Apple Tool – Peels, slices and cores in one motion!

FARMcurious — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 00:09:35 +0000

This is one of those kitchen gadgets you really truly need if you get into Fall apple mania like I do. With a turn of the lever, it peels, slices and cores the apple all at once. Just like with the cherry pitter, everyone will want to help when they see how fun this gadget is.

You can also adjust this tool so that it doesn’t slice the apples or peel the apples in case you prefer to preserve your apples whole or unpeeled. It even self adjusts for size so you can prepare many different sizes of apples in one fell swoop.

Buy this – you’ll thank me.

Have you ever pitted ten pounds of cherries? Well, we have – and we found the only way to get help is to have the best toys on the block. Everyone will want to help out when they see this cool pitter meant for big jobs. Why bother with single pitters and the sore thumbs they give you when you can crank out pounds of pitted cherries in this baby? Such a great idea that we sold out of them at Sunset Magazine’s Celebration Weekend but we’ve got more now and we’re ready to send them to you!

Includes a hopper to hold cherries, a box to catch the pits and a spring-action plunger that does the pitting. Also includes a clamp to screw it securely onto your countertop or cutting board.

Enjoy fresh corn off the cob using this excellent Corn Kernel Stripper. The 18/8 stainless steel sleeve (2-1/8-inch diameter) fits over the tapered end of the corn cob and with firm pressure on the softly padded silicone “wings”, the sharp serrated blades cleanly cut the kernels away from the cob. Easy to use and safer than a knife, this tool is great when preparing corn for chutney, salsa, chowder, or canning. Silicone sleeves are removable for easy cleaning. Dishwasher safe.
