Metal Manual Corkscrew and Bottle Opener

metal manual corkscrew — because a home without one is a home not ready for guests

In a Turkish or Middle Eastern household that receives guests regularly, there is a set of tools that must exist in the kitchen drawer — not because they are used every day, but because the moment you need one and do not have it is always the wrong moment. The corkscrew is one of those tools. A bottle arrives with a guest, a celebration calls for it, and the kitchen that cannot open it is the kitchen that was not prepared. The metal construction gives this one the rigidity to extract a cork cleanly without the handle bending under pressure.

Why We Selected This Piece

At Rootsware, we carry kitchen tools that belong in a Turkish or Middle Eastern kitchen — the flat metal skewer for sis kebab, the serving tong for a proper mezze spread, the lemon squeezer that gets used at almost every meal. These are necessities in the household that cooks this cuisine regularly.

Care & Cleaning

• Hand-wash with mild soap and warm water after each use.
• For metal skewers: dry immediately to prevent rust. Store flat or hanging.
• For bamboo and wooden tools: hand-wash only — never soak or dishwasher.
• For metal tools: dishwasher safe unless the handle is wood or plastic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Flat vs round skewers?
Flat skewers prevent meat from spinning when you turn them. For kofte and shish kebab, always use flat.

How many skewers do I need?
6 skewers covers one round for a family grill. Buy two sets for more than 4 people.

Bamboo skewers on charcoal?
Yes, but soak in water for 30 minutes before use. Metal skewers do not require soaking.
