Peeling an apple... The Authentic way ! | How to peel an apple with a knife

Chinese people are well known for their skills with a knife in the kitchen, see how we peel our apples!

[@DitasVeg]

it's amazing! I have been peeling apples the Chinese way all my life without noticing!

[@k_zildjian4460]

Me, too!

[@kairos5707]

Umm, it’s not exactly the ‘Chinese' way...

[@user-jr9gw3gl7z]

Well it’s not really Chinese to cut like this anyone can cut like this without being chinese

[@qwertdwlrma]

We Chinese people are born naturally with this apple peeling talent

[@lifeofaweirdo4630]

...Ya sure? since I can't peel a single apple without cutting my finger, ouch ;-; Btw, that's kinda racist in a way

Life of a Weirdo it's not racist, the person is speaking about Chinese people (their own race) and commenting on a cultural aspect. Stop throwing racism around over nothing, that's why nobody takes it serious any more

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🙏❤️

[@wrona_serowa]

You know, there's an old wives tale that if you peel an apple in one go and toss it behind your head, you'll see the first letter of the person you're going to marry! Worked for my mom!

[@shin3071]

Gonna try that

[@anniefrank3249]

What do you mean you’ll see the first letter of the person you’ll marry? Where do you see the letter?

[@wrona_serowa]

@@anniefrank3249 in the way the apple peel looks on the ground. For example, when my mom did it, her dad said he saw that the peel made an N shape. She ending up marrying my dad... whose name is Neville!

You just need to make sure that your knife is really sharp. A sharp knife is a safe knife.

Omg! When my por por came to visit us in Australia, she would sit me down at the table after school (I was a latchkey kid!) & prepare me an apple just like this… while she had a hearty shot of brandy! I miss her. Thank you for triggering the memory! 💕

[@shivamkalra9318]

Nothing chinese in it..its universal way of peeling an apple lol

[@MaddiesDaddy]

Sharpening my knife helped a lot and I liked your intro btw! Very informative!

[@frightfoo8440]

Havent (needed to) peel an apple for years but I remember this was the way I used to do it :)

[@YungRolex]

So basically how every person without a peeler at hand does it...

[@k_zildjian4460]

It's actually much faster this way, and a lot less messy.

[@margarethaffey4640]

Love your channel been pealing like that all mylife, really love your piano playing

[@DrBrunoRecipes]

Lovely!

[@cr07forever93]

Thank you for amazing tutorial!

Do you really need it tho?

great job this video is really helping me thanks

[@thetechziguy]

Thank you for this video. I'm sure this will help me.

[@jeanyv9601]

It’s like watching my mum peel apples for us as children - we loved it when it was all in one piece! Happy days x

[@eleanorlaurent2303]

That was fun to watch, and I love the sound of the apple being cut.

[@blutsx]

My parents always do this, now I need to learn because I moved out and never asked them...

Indeed

[@amanekaze]

Me who used a peeling knife but was bad at it: ⚫👄⚫

[@x-75hurricane65]

I wonder what makes peeling an aporo this way 'Chinese?' We've done it like this since forever. I remember watching my great, great grandmother peeling fruit for preserving when I was a wee girl. 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. Cheers from Aotearoa New Zealand.

Got it on one go on my second apple.

[@coachingschool6008]

Great Idea

[@EasyChineseCooking]

Thanks!

[@georgeplaxton3067]

It is important to eat the skin after washing the apple just cut into four top to bottom then cut out the pips.

[@haleyh4899]

Beautiful

[@qt2crazy]

Thank you, I'm going to try it now. It took you a minute and 15 sec.

This is also the Irish way.... we are all the same. Apples are one of mother nature's gift to the world 🌎 ❤

[@GHOST-pi2zq]

thats a sharp knife

[@MrAliaspostmortem]

Extremely beautiful way of peeling. But I must say that a standard potatopeeler is my preferred "weapon of choice". A few seconds an apple! :-). Especially when making a pie or the like.

[@komennto43]

In Japan too!!

[@fisherman7633]

Thanks for sharing. I never thought of it that way before. GOD Bless.

[@EasyChineseCooking]

Thank you:)

[@baddoggie101]

I used to peel my apples but kept slicing off my one finger. I did it five times and the last time the surgeon attached it he said he would make me eat it if I did it again and since I didn't want to eat my finger I stopped peeling my apples and ate them with the skin and all their good nutrients did me wonders and caused all my other fingers to grow back.

[@amanekaze]

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

[@MayaAsakura]

woo nice skill

[@Idealogo]

Aahwww, that reminds me on my childhood, we always tried to peel an apple in one go without ripping the appleskin. I was good at it :P I'm german btw. Thanks for the video though ;)

Oh so close you almost did it in one ,personally I’d have to do a retake 😀🙏

[@kepler186f4]

I love apples, but I've been told that at my age I'm consuming far too much fiber... hence, I must learn this wonderful skill of peeking an apple.... thank you for the pointers. p.s. I was sectioning the apple into slices eating it like a slice of orange.

[@al5193]

my grandma does it like that

[@pogodanaprzygode]

so slow... so relaxing peeling

[@karencook7592]

I peel apples too. 😊Even tho l buy organic - still pesticide is used. I have an apple a day. ❤

This is true.Its really how chinese people peel it.Its because Im chinese too.

[@jordanli4631]

I'm Chinese too, there right it's true

[@2adamast]

Are Chinese not supposed to only use a cleaver?

[@jordanli4631]

+Adamast No, just we use different ways. We do use cleavers.

[@Gmoney818]

+Adamast mostly I am Chinese and we have two cleavers one heavy for meat one light for vegetables and small pairing knife for fruit because have you tried peeling with a cleaver it's not easy.

[@TheRealKoolair]

+raorockz85 Chinese people use cleavers for everything including pet grooming...erm, well that's what they say they're doing.

[@Loth_kat]

Wow, it took me 1 hour to peel just one apple cuz I tried to peel it without getting the apple with it

[@ZenMusic3000]

These are obviously jazz apples.

[@endlessctrl]

Doesn't everybody do that??

[@iisophiex3]

No. Most people would use an actual peeler, like the potato peelers

[@endlessctrl]

Suba oh wow I wrote this comment when I was 12 lmao

@@riisuba bullshit no way you live in a house with WiFi and a computer or phone and don’t have knives

[@jordanaa1221]

omg she peeled it in 3 go's I think while me here cutting the apples one by one and it took me about 10 minutes to peel it while this girl just took like 1 minute or some.

[@hossamzemrany3146]

Who else was satisfied while she was peeling the apple

[@nicolasgt1479]

Definetely better than the the feet peel videos

[@LattePunch]

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]

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:)

[@LattePunch]

Thank you.

[@michellebresil8745]

Latte Punch a peeler works far better than a knife in that way (plus you lose less apple flesh). As for the speed it just takes practice, try to get an occasion. Personnaly, i baked 23 applepies and organized a charity sell out = helped a charity + I peel an apple in less 30 sec. Just giving ideas :)

[@ssj9devil]

Could you possible show how to do this with left hand pls😅

[@dixiepan8538]

It is simple, just hold your I-Pad in front of a mirror. Good Luck

[@nikmuch1]

I've always peeled them this way. I thought I was going to learn something new 🤷

[@duncanmit5307]

💜👍

[@jae3712]

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.

[@pureroseangemuse7910]

bruh i cant even peel nicely without slicing every skin off its hard to peel it all the way

[@funeralgiggle3771]

I feel like a savage now

[@EasyChineseCooking]

haha :D

[@seaweed349]

Some of the wax may be natural...the wild tree in the field next to us produces apples that have a waxy coating. It may just be enough to wash the skin..

[@abode_owian2997]

I somehow cut the apple in half

[@oasido]

I can die in peace now.

ahhh your peel broke off! lol. jk good show. I like how you dig into the butt end first.

[@grapiken7766]

Most of the nutrients are found in the peel. Unfortunately, apples are number one in the list of foods most affected by pesticides (Clean Fifteen - Dirty Dozen).

[@simonerusso2802]

youuuuuu have a lot of time

[@maddiezaizai]

I'm afraid I would cut my thumb I'd I do it like that

[@belotiisnotreal2539]

You don't, you press the knife and the peel protects your finger

[@FlukeTog]

Sure looks like the American way ;). Where'd you get the blueprints ? An apple a day keeps the doctor away, if you throw them.

[@h8potus972]

Apple Brown Betty time...M'mm m'mm

[@darrento6563]

A bit wasteful; a big apple became a small apple. Still, good technique and it's useful when there isn't a peeler around.
