Peelers
For domestic use as well as outdoors, peeling can be considered a real chore. However, with the right tools, such as a peeler, removing the skin from your fruits and vegetables will be done quickly and with complete ease.
Which to choose, a Y-peeler or a knife peeler?
On the market, you will generally have the choice between two forms of peeler.
Y-peeler
- This model offers a perfect grip for peeling long vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, etc.
- This model ensures it is a peeler that works equally well for right-handed and left-handed users.
Knife peeler
- The model comes in the shape of a knife. It can be adapted for both left-handed and right-handed users.
- It is particularly suited to processing fruits and vegetables such as apricots, potatoes and pears.
How to choose your peeler?
Based on the specifics of its blade, you will naturally find the peeler that suits you best. For example:
- The smooth blade: this peeler model can handle all fruits and vegetables with a hard skin such as potatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, carrots and pears.
- The serrated blade: this is a peeler with a small serrated blade, ideal for finely and delicately peeling fruits and vegetables such as kiwi, tomato and peaches.
- The single-edged blade: it is easily used by right-handed users and is jam-proof.
- The double-edged blade: this is the best choice if you cannot decide between a peeler for thin- and thick-skinned fruits and vegetables.
