With the Microplane Professional Peeler, both soft and hard foods can be peeled razor-thin. Whether it's carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, potatoes, asparagus, parsnips, kiwis, mangoes, or apples - the movable blade always adapts to the shape of the food being peeled. This ensures that only as much peel as necessary is removed. This unique blade sharpness is also ideal when dishes need to be garnished with thin fruit and vegetable strips.
