For our Conference at Sea, many P.R. firms, wineries, hotels, and others provided wonderful gifts. I’m going to comment on them over the next month or so.
Joan Joffa, j.joffaacme@verizon.net, represents over 300+ food and wine clients. Many are green or environmentally friendly. She was gracious enough to provide a series of gifts for welcome bags and pillow gifts. What’s better is Joan has stories about all of the companies.
One of the gifts we had was a new product from Swissmar Imports Limited, http://www.swissmar.com/, or info@swissmar.com, 1-800 216-3492. They gave us a card with three Swiss stainless steel classic peelers. I was anxious to put these to the test when we returned home.
The first is a serrated peeler and thinly peels delicate fruits and vegetables. I used it on a tomato and kiwi which was terrific. They say it also is good for mangoes and hard cheese and the side cutter removes potato eyes and blemishes and cuts groves in vegetables.
The second peeler is a simple way to have thin julienne sticks in one stroke with carrot, zucchini and more. I tried this on some hard cheese to get some thin strips.
The last peeler thinly peels hard fruits and vegetables like apples, carrots, and potatoes. I tried it on butternut squash and it was great.
After being impressed with the quality of these peelers, I checked out the website, http://www.swissmar.com/. Wow, they have the difficult to find products at reasonable prices. I spotted several Raclette Party Grills. I may have to break down and order one since that has been a favorite dish since I first experienced it in Switzerland.
For those of you who cook and want some easy peelers give these a try. Thank you Swissmar and Joan. For those who try these out, please let me know how you like them.

Maralyn, I love my peelers. The plan was to give them to one of my foodie children or friends as a unique gift. Instead I am keeping them for my self, useful and different. Thanks. Brenda
ReplyDeleteNow that I've used these more, thank you, thank you , thank you for my 3 stainless steel super peelers. I love and use them all. I will recommend these perfect. Peelers to my chef daughter, son in law and all of my friends who love to cook. Maralyn Hill and I plan to feature your Swiss classics on our next cooking video. I cannot decide which peelers I like the best. So far I use the julienne blade the most. Maralyn and I saw other peelers at 10 times your price at last weeks Bocuse dfOr in Lyon, France.
