I know I've been told time and time again: “Tear lettuce, don't cut it!”, but it becomes such a tedious task I always want to reach for the knife. Now with this new Lettuce Knife you can have the quick convenience of a knife with out the brown unsightly lettuce edge. The browning is caused by a chemical reaction between the natural lettuce enzymes and the iron in your metal knife. Choosing a simple way to solve this, the new Lettuce Knife avoids metal entirely. Instead the knife is made from a hard durable plastic. With a hard stay-sharp blade, the Lettuce Knife makes it easy to finely shred lettuce and at 19cm (7.5”) long, the knife can cleanly tackle a whole head at once. Dishwasher Safe and suitable for non-stick surfaces, the Lettuce Knife is an amazing £1.75 from DeCuisine.co.uk. At that price who can resist this simple solution?
