OXO Good Grips 5.5 / 14cm Stainless Steel Julienne Peeler - 1054751BK

Built for fine julienne strips, the serrated stainless blade creates uniform 2 to 3 mm noodles from carrots, zucchini, beets, and apples. The cut depth is fixed, giving consistent strips every pass without measuring.

A cushioned non-slip handle absorbs hand pressure and stays grippy when wet, which matters during a long mise en place shift. The blade pivots slightly to track the curve of irregular produce.

The blade is replaceable rather than sharpenable, so plan to swap the whole tool once strips start tearing instead of slicing cleanly. Typical service life is several months under daily commercial prep.

Yes, the OXO peeler is rated for the dishwasher, though hand-washing extends blade life and protects the handle finish. Dry fully before storing to prevent moisture pooling around the blade slot.

Julienne peelers create authentic flat strips for slaws and garnishes, while spiralizers make spaghetti-style spirals, so they serve different prep goals. For high-volume prep, pair this with a commercial food processor for bulk shredding.

Always peel away from the body, hold smaller produce with a cut-resistant glove, and never run a thumb across the serrated blade to check sharpness. Skipping these basics is the most common cause of peeler injuries.

Firm produce like carrots, zucchini, daikon, beets, and apples cuts cleanest. Softer items like ripe tomatoes or peaches tear, so reserve those for knife work or a food processor.
