Secure the apple or pear onto the peeler/corer, then turn the handle to peel, core, and slice the fruit in one smooth motion. Adjust the blade if needed for optimal peeling.

Detailed Explanation:

Using an apple peeler/corer is quite straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:

  1. Prepare the Fruit: Wash the apple or pear thoroughly. Ensure it's relatively firm and free of major blemishes for best results.

  2. Secure the Fruit: Place the apple or pear onto the prongs of the peeler/corer. Push it firmly but gently to ensure it's securely attached. Most peelers have a suction base; make sure it's firmly attached to a clean, smooth surface.

  3. Adjust the Blade (if necessary): Some peelers have an adjustable blade. If your peeler is peeling too deeply or not deeply enough, adjust the blade according to the manufacturer's instructions. You want to remove only the skin, not a significant amount of the fruit's flesh.

  4. Turn the Handle: Begin turning the handle of the peeler/corer. The blade will peel the skin, and the coring mechanism will remove the core as the fruit rotates. The slicing blade will simultaneously slice the fruit into a spiral shape.

  5. Remove the Fruit: Once the peeling, coring, and slicing are complete, carefully remove the fruit from the peeler/corer. You should have a peeled, cored, and spirally sliced apple or pear.

  6. Clean the Peeler: Disassemble the peeler/corer and wash all parts thoroughly with soap and water. Dry completely before storing.

Pro Tip:

For softer pears, chill them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before using the peeler/corer. This will help them hold their shape better during the peeling process and prevent them from becoming mushy.
