- A sharp, well-designed vegetable peeler can make all the difference when it comes to efficient meal prep.
- Our top pick, the Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler, is overwhelmingly the expert favorite for its easy-to-use shape and ultra-sharp carbon steel blade.
I'm a woman of many talents - accomplishing tasks while reading at the same time, sleeping for 12+ hours, finding new ways to waste time on the Internet. But cooking is not among them. The best I can really do is an elaborate salad and a veggie burger.
For a cooking novice like myself, vegetable prep can be one of the most intimidating aspects. Just looking at an unpeeled, unchopped carrot makes me break into a cold sweat. I'm sure my vegetable peeler is part of the problem. It's unwieldy, old, and not very sharp.
The good news? An expert-approved vegetable peeler is not difficult to acquire. Most of them are inexpensive and available on Amazon. Maybe I'm just one Amazon Prime order away from getting over my fear of squash that hasn't been pre-cut.
Here are the best vegetable peelers you can buy:
- Best vegetable peeler overall: Kuhn Rikon 2784 3-Set Swiss Peeler
