Tablecraft Products Co Tomato Stem Corer

While specifically engineered for the size and texture of tomatoes, its sharp, stainless steel tip works well on similar soft-skinned produce like strawberries or bell peppers. It is not intended for hard vegetables like potatoes or carrots.

Yes, the 420 stainless steel is rust-resistant and durable enough for the dishwasher. However, hand washing is recommended to keep the tip sharp and precise over time.

The tool features an ergonomic design intended to reduce hand fatigue. Its compact size allows for a natural pinch grip, which provides better control and comfort than using a standard paring knife for high-volume prep.

The design is versatile enough to handle most tomato varieties. For very small cherry tomatoes, you may need to use a lighter touch, but it is highly effective at removing the stem and core from standard slicing and paste tomatoes.

The tip is sharp enough to pierce tomato skin cleanly without crushing the flesh. Because it is made from 420 stainless steel, it holds its edge well and generally does not require regular sharpening with standard kitchen tools.
