    Why do you need a vegetable peeler?

    A vegetable peeler is an essential tool which makes the process of peeling so easy, fast and safe. It is obvious that the peelers make get the job done more efficiently than the parking knives do.

    Vegetable peelers can be also used for slicing when you want to get equal and paper-thin vegetable slices. For example, it’s applicable for potato chips and eggplant rolls. 

    How to choose a good vegetable peeler?

    1. When choosing a vegetable peeler the shape is the first thing to look at. There are two basic styles available: vertical bladed peelers, where the blade is parallel to the handle, and yoke-shape peelers, where the blade is perpendicular to the handle. I prefer Y-shape peelers as they are versatile for shapes of vegetables and fruits, while vertical bladed peelers are more suitable for longer veggies like cucumbers and carrots.

    Look for a vegetable peeler with a swiveling blade as it is more convenient to work with and it follows the shape of the vegetable peeled. 

    The edge of the blade can be either straight or serrated. A serrated blade is good for softer vegetables and fruits such as tomatoes and kiwi.

    If you are left-handed, make sure the peeler has a two-sided blade which is universal for both right-handers and left-handers.

    If you consider buying a peeler with the ceramic blade, you need to know that ceramic keeps edge longer, it doesn’t produce rust and doesn’t react with acidic fruits like apples and tomatoes. However, ceramic is easy to damage and quite expensive.

    2.Handles also deserve special attention. Plastic is the best choice since it’s light and doesn’t carry bacteria. Make sure that the surface is even and without roughness. It’s good if a peeler has a non-slip handle.

    3.The next thing to consider is cost. The prices vary from 0.1$ to a few hundred dollars. Different materials and workmanship, and even different factories will affect the price of the product. Generally speaking, a medium priced peeler is a suitable choice for the family kitchen.

    A vegetable peeler is both practical and economical, it saves time and effort. If you still don’t have a vegetable & fruit tool in your kitchen, you deserve to have a vegetable peeler.
