A grapefruit half is a pleasure to eat once the sections are loose, and this Norpro knife frees them in two steps. First, run the curved blade around the inside of the rind; it is serrated on both sides, so it cuts in either direction. Then flip the knife and press the twin blades at the other end down each membrane to lift the sections out.The curved blade follows the shape of the fruit, so it cuts close to the rind without piercing it, and the twin blades slide down along each membrane. Because both edges are serrated, the knife works equally well in a right or a left hand. The handle is rosewood.The same knife sections oranges for a fruit salad. For juicing citrus, see the Norpro glass citrus juicer and the wood citrus reamer. The Core It tomato corer is another small tool that saves time at breakfast prep. Learn More

Norpro calls this tool the Core It, and it removes the hard core from a tomato or the hull from a strawberry with a quick twist. The stainless steel scoop has small teeth around its edge that cut a neat cone out of the fruit and leave the rest intact, which wastes far less than cutting around the core with a paring knife.During tomato season, it speeds up canning. Core a basket of tomatoes before blanching and the skins slip off cleanly. For strawberries, it takes out the green top and the white center in one move, leaving a hollow berry ready to fill with cream or chocolate.The tool is 4.75 inches long with a heavy-duty plastic handle that fits in the palm, and Norpro also suggests it for prepping peppers and mushrooms. For hot peppers, use the Norpro Grip-EZ jalapeno corer. Customers putting up summer produce also keep the Grip-EZ corn cutter nearby. Learn More

A ricer makes the smoothest mashed potatoes because it presses cooked potato through small holes, which breaks it up gently and keeps the texture from turning gluey. Norpro’s Deluxe Jumbo Ricer holds 3 cups at a time in an extra-large hopper perforated on all four sides, which moves a holiday batch along much faster than a small ricer.The body is cast aluminum, the hopper is stainless steel, and rubber insets in the handles give a secure grip. Rest hooks on the end hold it steady on the rim of a pot or bowl. Norpro notes that potatoes can go in peeled or unpeeled; the skins stay behind in the hopper. The large hopper takes cooked potatoes whole or halved.The ricer also makes gnocchi and spaetzle, purees applesauce and carrots, and squeezes water out of grated potatoes for crisp hash browns. For chunkier mashed potatoes, the Krona potato masher is the simpler tool. Customers planning Thanksgiving pair the two with a gravy separator. Learn More

On a bake day the bench scraper stays within reach, and the Norpro 577 does the job with a 6 by 4-inch stainless steel blade and a rounded handle formed from the same piece. Use the straight edge to lift sticky bread dough off the counter, divide it into even rolls and scrape the work surface clean of flour when you are done. The rounded handle gives a secure grip, and the flat, one-piece design stores under a cutting board.A measuring guide on the blade helps cut pasta and pastry to size and portion cookie dough evenly. In the kitchen beyond baking, it chops herbs and nuts and carries them from the board to the pan in one pass. It also cuts brownies and bar cookies into clean squares in the pan.Customers working with yeast doughs pair it with the Norpro Scandinavian dough whisk for mixing. For pie crust, it lifts and turns dough after the pastry blender has done its work, and it keeps the counter clear as you roll with the tapered rolling pin. Learn More
