Cool Kitchen Gadget : Corn Zipper

Posted by Dexie

I've found a cool gadget to help me out with taking the corn off of a cob, without wasting some of the kernels. I usually run my knife down the cob but it could really messy and I seem to be wasting some of the kernels. So anything that could give me more corn to use for one of my favorite ways in preparing fresh corn this Summer is definitely a must-have in my kitcken. Behold, Corn Zipper from Kuhn Rikon. This very unique tool "unzips" corn off the cob, neatly and safely. For $12 I can have all the kernels in my bowl, instead of picking some off of the table or worse, off of the floor which pretty much ends up in the trash bin. The Venetian mask winsome smile reference makes it even more interesting :) .
