If you like potatoes, you can bring it with you! Introducing the interesting kitchen tool "Potato Cutter", which is a niche of 100 Daiso. A product of 200 yen.


As the name suggests, it's a kitchen tool just for cutting potatoes. It is an excellent design that anyone can understand how to use it by listening to the name and looking at it.

Place the washed potatoes on a cutting board and turn on the potato cutter from above. All you have to do is put your strength into the handle and pull it straight down. In an instant, you can cut a whole potato into small pieces that are perfect for potato fries. refreshing…!





The trick is to make the cutting board parallel to the blade surface of the potato cutter and to apply force evenly over the entire surface. It is easier to put your weight on it from directly above.

It is also important to take the plunge. I think it feels a little stiff at first, but is that okay? Can you break the potatoes? To counteract the worry, lower the potato cutter with all your might. Then the potatoes will answer.


By the way, in the case of elongated potatoes, it is easier to cut them if they are placed vertically. This is because the force is concentrated in a small area. Horizontal placement is more stable, but it requires more force when cutting.



However, before I get the hang of it, I think it's safe to try it with a softened potato that has been lightly microwaved instead of raw potatoes. It is dangerous to insert the potato cutter halfway through the potato and pull it out halfway, saying "I can't do it!" Because there is a risk of injury.

The difficulty is that it's a little annoying when washing. I think it's easier to wash if you have a used toothbrush.


One potato can be cut in an instant, which is convenient when making a large amount of potato fries. If you like potatoes, why not give it a try?
