Karoto - Sharpener & peeler

Who says that salads just have to be a few vegetables chucked together? 

Why can't the salad be the most appealing dish on the table? 

While I was at university, this giant sharpener made its way into our home and even as a student, I found it a very helpful tool to keep in the kitchen. 

Designed by Avichai Tadmor, this giant sharpener is ideal for topping your dishes with edible designs. One end has a peeler meaning that you only really need this one item to make your salads perfect (less washing up - need I say more?) and the other end works just like a pencil sharpener. 


Just as you would with a pencil, the sharpener is big enough to fit a full sized carrot to create the lovely shape as you can see in the picture below. 

As anyone who was ever a procrastinator in school will know, you can decide just how big or small you want it to be just by turning the carrot in the sharpener. 


We managed to use parsnips as well, it looks so good and the colours of the carrots and the parsnips contrast beautifully. 

It doesn't just have to be a salad topper. Use it to spruce up any meal!

Here in the UK you can find it on Amazon for just £3.99!
