The corn prep peeler is a compact kitchen tool built for one job: taking kernels off the cob. The serrated blade runs quickly along the cob, lifts the kernels with little waste and leaves the bare cob behind. It replaces cutting kernels off with a large knife, where the cob tends to roll away.

The tool is shaped as a Y-peeler. The compact Y-shape suits the round form of the cob, gives a wider point of contact where the blade meets the cob and encourages a natural top-to-bottom peeling motion. OXO took the features of its classic peeler and put them into a new, compact form. For anyone making corn salad, salsa or a side dish for the barbecue during corn season, that is a small tool with a clear purpose.

You set the blade at the top of the cob and pull it down in one stroke. The kernels come away, the cob stays in one piece. Because the Y-shape is easy to manoeuvre, it works with every grip, held from above or from the side. You work your way round the cob strip by strip.

That is the starting point for everything that tastes better with loose kernels: corn salad, a salsa with coriander, tomatoes and peppers, a dip or a side next to the grill. The peeler does it quickly and safely because the blade is guided along the cob.

The blade is sharp Japanese stainless steel, rustproof and serrated. The handle is ergonomically shaped and wide enough for a secure hold, with a soft, non-slip Santoprene grip zone that stays comfortable during longer jobs. There is a hanging hole in the handle.

It is made for home cooks and barbecue fans and for everyone who likes cooking with fresh corn. If you only prepare cobs once or twice a year, you notice the difference on the first one; if you make corn salad regularly, you notice it on every cob.

As a present it fits the barbecue season and the summer: hand it over with fresh cobs or a recipe for corn salsa. Small enough for the drawer, cheap enough as a little gift.

Work over a bowl or a board with a rim so the kernels stay where you want them. Holding the cob by its lower end with your free hand gives you a steady guide for the top-to-bottom motion.

After use the peeler goes in the dishwasher. For storage, use the hanging hole and hang it with your other kitchen tools, so it is to hand as soon as corn season starts.
