Apple Peeler Corer Slicer - 4 Benefits

What exactly is an apple peeler corer slicer, other than a bit of a tongue-twister. Go ahead, try saying it 3 times over, really quickly!

Well, it's a handy, clever little gadget to make your time in the kitchen easier. Not surprisingly, it does what it says on the tin….or stainless steel…..as that's what they are mostly made out of. It peels, slices and cores….all at the same time.

An apple peeler corer slicer consists of a spoke to hold the apple in place, blades to do the cutting and a stand so that you can attach it to your kitchen work surface. The stand is either a clamp or a suction cup style - both work well.

All you have to do is insert the apple onto the metal spoke and crank the handle, and voila. The result is a peeled, cored and sliced apple. Or a potato. Or even a pear.

So, what are the benefits of having an apple peeler corer slicer? Here are some:

It's a timesaver. How long does it take to peel, slice and core an apple manually? 5 minutes perhaps, once you've found the corer, that is! The apple peeler corer slicer literally takes seconds to complete the job. You can easily adjust the width of the slices too.

It's simple. Anyone can use an apple peeler corer slicer.

It's clean. I know people who can make quite a mess doing this manually. The apple peeler slicer corer does the job without all the sticky mess.

It will make you eat more apples. Maybe! Often, I choose an unhealthy snack over an apple simply because I don't want to peel and slice the apple. The apple peeler corer slicer helps me eat more apples and you know what they say…an apple a day keeps the doctor away.

The uses are endless - apple sauce, apple crisps, apple fritters, apple pie, apple cake….I'm getting hungry for an apple just writing this! That's just for apples - use it for potatoes and pears too.
