A few days ago I decided to prepare a delicious orange juice however to do it, it is necessary to peel each orange a very tedious and time-consuming work, I have tried other devices to make my orange juice, however, I do not like to prepare my juice with squeezing the oranges with the peel because the same flavor is achieved.
so I remembered a very interesting and practical device that I knew in my childhood the Yucatecan orange peeler with this device of no more than 2.5 kg you could peel the oranges in a very easy way and with an almost millimeter cut
The pelanaranjas is an invention made in Yucatan, specifically in the City of Progress, by Mr. Rubén Flores, this person simplified the great machines that existed at the time when he created his invention which were very heavy approximately 15 kilograms.
The pelanaranjas were made of bronze and had in the front the name of its inventor "Rubén Flores" and to one side the pyramid of chichen itza.
According to the account, the machine was created by Mr. Rubén Flores due to the pain he felt from seeing his mother cut her finger when peeling an orange with the knife.
Mr. Rubén Flores died at the age of 97 years after the death of the family stopped manufacturing his machine, so today it is very difficult to get one and it has also become more expensive, I think I will try to find somewhere where I can get it quite practical, I have already been told of some places so I will start my search.
my friend made one of these to peel apples a couple years ago great idea
