How to Punch a Pepper


I just wanted to share an idea that a friend of mine gave me recently- a simple method to prepare a pepper without a knife. It's quick, and although it doesn't yield perfect results, it may be helpful when working with youth that you don't trust with a knife, or if you just don't feel like getting a knife dirty.

Step 1.

Position both thumbs beside the stem of the pepper (only one thumb included in photo because the other hand was occupied with the camera).

Step 2.
Apply pressure until the stem recedes into the fruit.

Step 3.
Use your fingers to pull out the stem and seeds.
