Recommend a good apple corer - freeradical - 07-12-2011

My current corer has proven to not be up to the task. It bent, and now the metal is just weak. I thought it was good when I bought it; it's a Henckels.:-)

I guess not.

I'm not looking for one of those all in one corers and peelers, just a solid corer.

Single core?


Re: Recommend a good apple corer - Mac1337 - 07-12-2011

Just don't eat the core.

I've bent, broken, thrown out an awful lot of corers/peelers.
(well the peeler only worked with just the right sized apples and wasted even more than I could do by hand on a sloppy day)

Call me old fashioned, but this still works pretty good :

I have one similar to the one in this crappy video. It actually works quite well. Only once in awhile do I end up with a seed in one of the slices. I have to flip it over and push the slices out; it doesn't quite go all the way through the skin. But it still beats slicing an apple with a knife and having to cut the seeds out of each slice. It was cheap; if it dulls or bends I'll just get a new one. I've been eating a lot more apples & peanut butter lately!

The best models are the ones you find at garage sales, made of cast iron parts. The ones that are at least 50 years old.
