Zulay Kitchen Jalapeno Corer

The corer acts as a barrier between your hands and the pepper's interior, significantly reducing direct contact with capsaicin oils. By using the tool to scoop and twist, you avoid touching the seeds and ribs where the heat is most concentrated.

Yes, the design is ambidextrous. The non-slip handle and symmetrical blade structure allow for comfortable and efficient use regardless of which hand you prefer.

No, this corer is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the plastic and the sharpness of the blades, we recommend hand washing it with warm, soapy water after each use.

The serrated edge is designed to pierce the skin of the pepper cleanly without tearing it. Once pierced, the spiral blade is used to twist inside the pepper, effectively grabbing and pulling out the seeds and ribs in one motion.

While it is specifically optimized for jalapenos and smaller chili varieties, it can work on larger peppers. However, keep in mind that the size of the spiral blade is calibrated for smaller cavities, so it may take more passes to clear a large bell pepper.
