About this deal

We had no issues peeling any vegetables, from hard sweet potatoes to delicate tomatoes. It cut well in both directions, though we did find that sometimes peels got caught in the blade rather than falling away, so it slowed the peeling time down a bit, especially with potatoes. However, the peeler managed to remove the peels in one swipe and didn't remove an excess amount of the actual potato. To create long, ribbon-like shapes with a vegetable peeler, you’ll want to peel the vegetable lengthwise for long, strand-like cuts. You can do this with zucchini, asparagus, and carrots. If you find yourself making zoodles more often, it may make sense to add a dedicated spiralizer to your collection of kitchen tools. Replacement blades are included in the storage area at the base of the device. The peeler includes a 6-volt adapter, though it can also operate with batteries. This may be a worthwhile investment if you find yourself peeling a lot of potatoes at once. Fit your Piranha slicing board on to your Piranha peeler and you now have a mini mandolin which is ideal for slicing your fruits and vegetables into even slices. Some peelers have multiple blade options in one if you want the option to switch between serrated and straight. Additionally, a swivel blade allows you to peel in both directions and with much more freedom, whereas using a stiffer, stationary blade means you'll have to be on top of holding it at the proper angle for it to grab the peel.

If you want to peel and slice vegetables in an instant, then you need a peeler with sharp teeth. "The Piranha Peeler," is a must for every kitchen. This peeler has a swivelling pair of serrated micro blades which cut on the push and pull strokes. We’re big fans of the Oxo Y-peelers. They have comfortable handles, are easy to clean, and come in a set with a straight, serrated, and julienne blade. Ultimately, the Kuhn Rikon won out over these also-great peelers because of what we know about its long-term ability to retain sharpness.I now have 4 products that I find essential and very safe in my kitchen. When I buy a new one I always buy two ....one for my daughter as well. Lovely quality sturdy tools. [ ...] This classic, Swiss-design peeler offers a serrated swivel peeler that is adept at catching onto tough-to-penetrate skins (fuzzy, hard, or smooth), like tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and peaches. The serrated blade is also great for trimming tougher foods, like fresh asparagus and squash.Because it's serrated, it leaves behind very fine ridges on the item that you’re peeling, which provides extra grip on your food to prevent slipping. The imprint is so small, though, that you may not even notice. We found that it worked wonders on bushels of apples and large quantities of potatoes, but longer foods, like larger zucchini, had to be trimmed or cut in half to fit the machine (which was simple). Though it’s considerably more expensive than a manual peeler, this would be a major help if you find yourself peeling produce in large quantities (or you’re just trying to give your hands a break). The attachments are even dishwasher safe, which makes clean up super straightforward. The potato eye removers are located on the sides of the peeler and are hollow circles, so they can also be used for getting a strand of zest from citrus, too. When all is said and done, you can wash this in the dishwasher.

The final item of the Piranha Peeler Set is the Spiral Cutter. Complete your food with the perfect garnish. Use this cutter to bring vegetable and fruit to life. Piranha Peeler Set with Spiral Cutter Contents:We loved how comfortable the handle was to hold during our tests, even after a long session with potatoes. Also, the blade cut flawlessly in both directions, making it ideal for any cutting method and for both left- and right-handed users. The metal eye at the top lets you remove eyes from potatoes without reaching for a knife, and the hole in the handle can be used for hanging it on a hook. When it comes time for cleaning, it can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. In fact, one of our experts has been using this peeler for more than three years now and always throws it in the dishwasher. It's still an absolute workhorse. Making your own vegetable chips, whether you fry or bake them, is easier than you think. Almost any root vegetable can be made into homemade vegetable chips. Other options includerutabaga, turnips, celery root, and yuca. The vegetables are peeled, thinly sliced, and then soaked in water. After drained and dried, they are fried, kept warm, and then tossed with seasoned salt. Reviewers are immensely pleased with this product, noting that they were able to peel more difficult produce items, such as butternut squash. We found the same to be true during our tests, noting this peeler shines when working with firm produce, like carrots, apples, and cucumbers. However, we found it unable to peel softer-skinned fruit, like tomatoes; For that job, you’ll do better with one of the serrated blade peelers on this list. The super sharp teeth and micro blade technology means that you get a perfect result every time. Designed to stay super sharp. If you’re wanting an automatic peeler, but you don’t own a stand mixer, you can opt for this freestanding electric peeler. It claims to work on most produce, such as potatoes, apples, citrus, and stone fruits. Although the position of the peeler can be adjusted to accommodate fruit and veggies of all sizes, it struggles with thinner items like parsnips and carrots and heavier items like butternut squash.
