Here in Vermont, we pick more apples than we have time to peel, but this machine helps us keep up. If you're processing large quantities of apples for applesauce, apple butter, or dried apple slices, it saves hours of work.

A great gift for the cook and canner in your house, this ingenious mechanism peels, cores and slices in one single operation—just mount an apple or pear and turn the crank. The final product is a perfect spiral-sliced coil. Remove the coring tube and use for potatoes, with or without the slicer.
