Painless Potato Prep
When you think summer side salad, what comes to mind? The warm or cold, crowd-pleasing potato, of course! Too bad peeling potatoes is tedious, and can be downright treacherous. I have a harrowing tale of thumb versus peeler that I’m sure (at least some of) you can relate to. I won’t share, but I will tell you that I was pretty pleased when I came across the Palm Peeler. It’s like an oversized ring that sits backwards, jewel – or in this case, blade – in palm, while your whole hand operates it (instead of two, less-steady fingers). With a potato in your other palm, just bring your hands together and peel. Now I’m eyeballing the Palm Brush, which I’m sure, makes one heck of a potato scrubber.

I find that you can't get at the eyes in potatoes with this peeler, but I love it for carrots! I started using it after I broke my wrist and found peeling vegetables to be painful. Highly recommended!
