    This is how most oriental asians peel it... Chinese, Japanese, Korean...
    Yeah, we know that there are peelers you can use, but a lot of people (asians, I mean) have a different mindset. For some cases, people prefer this method because you feel the effort you put in for your children's food. This is coming from opinions of other people, not my own. And for others, some people like to show off their skill in cooking by peeling things in one go, like potatoes and stuff. It's kind of just like... the effort of making the food is that much more meaningful when a peeler ISN'T used., ya know? That's just the other point of view to those of you saying to just use a peeler because it's faster.

I'm well in to my 70's now but the memories are still clear of sitting on the floor at her feet, playing with the skin spirals and chewing on the fruit slices she would hand down to me.

    @LattePunch 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The fastest I can peel an apple is 3 mins. I want to do it faster and I've seen it done like how she's doing it but I can never keep the blade constantly going in the same place like that to make one long peel. Is it the blade or how hard you press that matters?

    • @EasyChineseCooking
      @EasyChineseCooking  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The blade needs to be sharpish, and don't go for the speed before you are very confident about what you are doing. You only need to press it lightly to make sure its position. And just be very very careful:)

I'm an American born in rural farmland and this is the way we have always peeled an apple. I think any culture with bladed tools have been peeling their damned fruits and vegetables for millennia this way. People of all cultures have lost their knife skills because of peelers and the like. Everyone is so damn sensitive these days, but to call xandror "racist" is pushing it. Lighten up!

      Now that's a miracle but I want to ask a question
      Why you would harm yourself if you can't do it properly- I almost peel my own finger skin back then

    Thank you😔What made this vid so much more of a therapeutic for me is the sound quality,the peeling of a crisp apple sounded divine..like hearing a bumble bee 💤🐝in an otherwise still and silent temple🙏❤️

    Too bold the peeling. It might be thicker
