Learn About Peelers & Scrapers
Peelers and scrapers are smallwares every kitchen needs. They easily peel the skin off fruits and vegetables, create thin slices of cheese and help make garnishes for specialty cocktails and drinks. Hand peelers are small and easy to store, making them an easy tool to incorporate into any kitchen. They’re commonly made with a stainless steel blade that’s sharp and peels off fruit and vegetable skin with ease.
Double-sided peelers are versatile and can peel from either side. Stainless steel peelers are durable, long-lasting and simple to clean. If you don’t want a completely stainless steel peeler, we also have a hand peeler with a plastic handle that’s comfortable to hold and can work in both wet or dry conditions.
We provide peelers from brands like Browne, Dexter, Swissmar and TableCraft. Need something bigger than a hand peeler? Check out our collection of graters and zesters.
