Straight peeler Microplane 48091 Stainless steel Black

The Microplane 48091 Straight Peeler is a stainless steel kitchen tool designed for precise peeling of fruits and vegetables. It combines a sharp, durable blade with an ergonomic Soft Touch handle that suits both right- and left-handed users. The peeler is shaped to produce thin, even strips for salads and garnishes while also removing skins cleanly from tubers and firm fruits.

Advantages

The ultra-sharp stainless steel blade cuts smoothly across soft and hard produce, and the blade’s slight curvature and balanced weight allow easy back-and-forth movement with minimal pressure. The integral potato-eye remover adds functionality without changing the peeler’s compact profile. An ergonomic Soft Touch handle offers a secure, comfortable grip for extended use.

Suitable for

• Peeling potatoes, carrots and parsnips
• Removing skins from apples, mangoes and other fruits
• Creating thin strips of courgette, cucumber and other vegetables for salads and garnishes
• Preparing tubers and firm produce in home kitchens and professional settings

How to use

Hold the peeler with your thumb and forefinger positioned on the ergonomic handle so you have control and comfort. Glide the blade along the surface of the fruit or vegetable using small back-and-forth motions; the curved blade contours to round and long produce. Use the integral potato-eye remover to extract blemishes or eyes from potatoes as needed. Apply light pressure—most peeling can be done in a single smooth pass.

Usage recommendations

To maintain blade performance, wash the peeler by hand with warm soapy water and dry immediately. Avoid cutting hard, inedible cores or bones. Store in a safe place to protect the sharp blade and prevent accidental contact.
