I have always disliked this task...(much like de-stemming strawberries),it's boring and time consuming.
I always thought there ought to be a better way to de-seed and remove the placenta and white "bitter" membrane inside chile's.
Then, while at the market picking out a package of some fresh strawberries recently, Voila'...there it was.
Maybe some of you all have seen or used one of these strawberry gadgets before.
But this little tool, for a mere $1.49, is easy to use and reduces the chile cleaning/prep time for me by at least 50%.
It is sharpened on the tip end, works like a mini-melon baller(can't wait for the response's to that description),and completely removes all the white membrane down to the flesh of the pepper.
After buying my first one and soon after realizing how well it works, I promptly returned the next day and picked up several more.
