I remember my mom making the best homemade pies… lemon meringue, chocolate meringue, pecan, pumpkin and apple. Mmmmm, so good! After I moved out of my parents house, I knew if I wanted a good pie then I’d have to make it myself. So I did. And I’ve been making apple pies ever since. I usually only make one or two pies a year (it’s not like I’m Mrs. Smith, oh wait, I am!) to fulfill my pie craving. Although, sometimes I do buy frozen (gasp!).
The worst part of making apple pies for me is peeling and slicing those darn apples. Enter Pampered Chef. Once I discovered there was an apparatus for doing these tasks for me, my life changed forever. The Pampered Chef Apple Peeler / Corer / Slicer is amazing! It does all 3 at once saving me over half the time it took me to do it with an old-school peeler and paring knife.
There is also a handy little stand that you can attach the peeler to. I held-off on buying the stand when I first purchased the peeler. I figured I could just attach it to my kitchen counter, but that didn’t work out. So I bought the stand and it made things a lot easier.
The Pie Crust Shield is also great to have. No more messing with strips of foil! I’m a little skeptical on the Pie Gate, but I think I’ll have to try it next.
Luckily, you don’t have to wait for one of your friends to have a party before buying Pampered Chef now… www.pamperedchef.com
