Sirius Chef Muffin Splitter - S10
Everybody loves a breakfast centered around a freshly-toasted English Muffin (OK: if you don’t, then skip to the next article!). And one of the endearing (and delicious) characteristics of an English Muffin is the existence of "nooks and crannies", which toast up crunchy and hold whatever you spread on the Muffin. But in order to preserve those lovely ‘nooks & crannies’, you need to split your Muffin (or biscuit, scone, or crumpet) in just the right way: the oft-mentioned ‘fork-split’ style that you can’t quite seem to master with a simple dinner fork!
And as much as we love knives for so many cooking tasks, a basic knife is not the appropriate tool to split an English Muffin: you need a purpose-built “Splitter”, in order to achieve the desired result ... preserving those 'nooks & crannies' to receive your butter, poached egg yolk, marmalade, or ....
We’ve had one of these devices for years, but it has at least 3 material limitations, which are barriers to use and enjoyment of English Muffins. First, its wire-like tines don’t cut broadly enough, so your incision isn’t clean and smooth. Second, it’s made of some low-grade ‘metal composite’ that rusts rapidly, so cleanup must include an almost-immediate, thorough towel dry. Finally, its wooden handle [you know; NEVER put wooden handles or tools in the dishwasher!] creates a second inconvenience barrier to dishwasher cleanup. But we’ve finally found a new English Muffin Splitter that overcomes all these issues and performs its task exceptionally well!
The Sirius Chef English Muffin Splitter features tines of 304 Stainless Steel, spaced at correctly-functional distances to assure “optimal splitage”, all mounted in FDA-Certified ABS plastic that allows this to be top-rack dishwasher safe for easy, thorough, immediate cleanup … in short, this is a Cool Tool that you will want for your breakfast pleasure, and that will speed your way out the door after enjoying all those nooks & crannies!
