Full of summer flavors, this recipe from Eating Well has made-from-scratch creamed corn, delicious pan-seared halibut and juicy tomatoes – a five-star dinner that is so easy to make! If you’re not familiar with them, you can learn more here.
For this recipe, I used my Kernel Cutter,Garlic Peeler & Slicer Set, and Quick Slice:
The Kernel Cutter’s curved and serrated stainless blade quickly removes kernels from cobs, and the plastic husker blade slices through corn silks and husks. The large ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip and easy maneuverability.
If you avoid cooking with fresh garlic because you don’t like garlic-scented hands, the Garlic Peeler & Slicer Set lets you peel and slice garlic instantly, without touching raw garlic. All you have to do is pop a few cloves into the peeler and roll it over a hard surface. Voila, the peels come off like magic! Put the peeled cloves into the slicer and twist to create perfectly even, thin slices of garlic.

Cut Ingredients Without Squishing
The Quick Slice cuts your favorite fruits and vegetables into even slices with one simple motion. The unique, V-shaped blades won’t squish soft foods while cutting, and it’s big enough to slice halves of avocado, a ball of fresh mozzarella, or a bunch of strawberries or mushrooms all at one time. It’s the perfect tool for people who love salads or sheet-pan meals. The BPA-free plastic handles surround the stainless steel blades, so you can quickly and comfortably slice ingredients.
