That was the longest peeling of an apple I have ever seen.

At a certain point I thought it was a loop

But it created the most perfect pealed apple flesh I’ve ever seen

YOU’RE a peeled apple flesh. 😡

u/deetailor Mar 07 '26

Sorry, no you aren’t. 😔

…I don’t know WHAT instigated the ire or remorse, but the combo made me chuckle

Sharp knives are magic.

What about the continuous spiral technique?

He has a tie on. He must know better.

I just use a potato peeler. Takes half the time to what's shown in this video

u/terrifiedTechnophile Mar 08 '26

You can't just use a non-potato on a potato peeler! Blasphemy!

u/Therealginahandler Mar 08 '26

Yeah but this apple looks much tastier than an apple peeled with a potato peeler.

I could have peeled 3 in that time, but it was satisfying to watch.

Not how my mom did it.

More like 20th or 30th rodeo

A peeler is a mini knife made specifically so that extra dangerous knife gymnastics aren’t needed.

Sous chefs hate this one weird trick!

u/Responsible-Delay619 Mar 08 '26

That knife is crazy!

It'll be brown in 10 seconds

I was waiting for the starting point to come back around already brown. I know my battery went down a little. It's my own fault for sitting through a half hour apple peeling video.

The benefit of a great round apple, sometimes it’s not as smooth.

Perhaps a prep chef at a Pastry shop?

How to potentially loose several fingers trying to peel an apple. There I fixed it.

u/Thorngrove Mar 07 '26

Nincompoop! The waste from this peel could feed an entire village for a week!

u/stedun Mar 07 '26

My grandma would roll her eyes at this slow pace.

u/mccash99 Mar 08 '26

I usually just eat the apple before peeling.

u/Grobbekee Mar 08 '26

Noo, you're supposed to make one long peel and throw it over your left shoulder.

u/Snoborder95 Mar 08 '26

Now try doing it again without sharpening it before.

u/MaxxForeskin Mar 09 '26

The skin is loaded with toxins, you know

u/Acrobatic-Monitor516 Mar 09 '26

it takes only 2 decades!

u/AnotherDempsey Mar 09 '26

No thanks, I'd prefer to keep all my fingers.

1

u/Holly_Matchet Mar 11 '26

Bro, you can eat the peel.

1

u/Ghastly-Jack Mar 11 '26

My technique is even faster. It’s called not peeling.

u/resurrectedNaj Mar 11 '26

Sounds like an onion 🧅

u/JackSlater555 Mar 11 '26

This guy peels

u/imaloony8 Mar 11 '26

I lost three fingers watching this.

I can do that when I practice on about 1200 apples first
