7 Things You Never Knew Your Grapefruit Spoon Could Do

This one came as a real shocker to me. Never in a million years would I ever imagine anything peeling a vegetable better than a vegetable peeler (what a time to be alive!). I was hit with this revelation when I took a grapefruit spoon to a piece of ginger and effortlessly and efficiently scraped the skin off without taking too much of the flesh with it.

This technique is especially helpful when the vegetable is smaller than six inches, like a piece of ginger. No longer will you accidentally nick your finger on a vegetable peeler; by using a grapefruit spoon, your digits are well clear of danger.
