“PORO PORO” CORN HUSKER - STAINLESS STEEL - EAトCO - YOSHIKAWA

Essential! This small stainless steel tool is designed to remove kernels from cooked corn. Slide the tip under the kernels, push, and two rows come off at once, cleanly, without leaving pulp on the cob. Pure Japanese genius :)

In Japanese, “poro poro” means: breaking off and falling into small pieces 🌽

For a salad, fritters, corn soup, or simply to eat a cob without annoying kernels stuck between your teeth!

Made in Tsubame-Sanjō, Niigata Prefecture, Japan.

Yoshikawa, Tsubame-Sanjō metal since 1946

Tsubame-Sanjō, in Niigata Prefecture, is Japan’s major center for metalworking. It was there in 1946 that Yoshikawa Kinzoku, a metal trading company, began making spoons and forks from offcuts from a local stainless steel mill.

Now based in Yahiko, Yoshikawa designs its utensils and has them made by workshops in Tsubame-Sanjō. They are simple, sturdy items designed to last. EAトCO is its range of utensils built around one idea: eating and cooking (EAT + COOK).
