DAZEY STRIPPER Vintage Gadget Test & FUNERAL Potatoes Recipe 

My phone is on 11% but who cares.. it's emmy

You can use the machine on the potato after it has already been peeled and you can make potato string fries, or hash browns. My mother had one when i was a kid. She threw it out when she ran out of blades and couldnt get them any more.

Your thrift store has such cool stuff!! The ones here have crusty clothes and ceramic geese from the 80s

"This one's even longer... hopefully my Dazey stripper can handle it." - Emmy 😂

"Dazey strip 'em allll day!" Emmy, letting her soul glow, I see. 😂

omg emmy... who gets the first spoon from the middle? you monster😂

WOW! That machine lived on our kitchen counter when I was growing up and I used to ask my mum to peel things with it all the time! I haven't thought of that thing in an age!! Thanks for the boost to my memory banks Emmy!!

emmy getting really turned on by a peeler HAHAH i enjoyed this!! so satisfying!!!

I'd be deep frying apple noodles like haystack onions, then drizzle some caramel or toss with cinnamon and sugar. 🍏🍎🍏

My family calls this sinful potatoes and we have them for every holiday and gathering. We add a finely chopped onion. But I must admit I was horrified when you scooped right out of the middle 😂

This would be so perfect for those with chronic illness/executive dysfunction. I can't stand the peel of apples but I love the flesh, and this would be great for the many days where peeling is hard.

You could fry the skins and turn them into chips

I have had one for about 15 years, it's great! When my children were young I would call them birds nest. lightly fry it, boy did they love the birds nest. There are many possibilities for that little daisy stripper. Lol we had so much fun with it. Donna

You should use the peels for potato peel pie. it's a WW II dish

Fry the skin strips and use them as a topping on the casserole. Yummy!

WHY DOES THE ONE FROM THE SEVENTIES WORK BETTER THAN MODERN VERSIONS?!

Something like this is essential for canning large volumes. It saves me so much time and saves my arthritic hands!

Love it. You could roast those peels with a little bit of oil and some salt and they would be awesome!

Emmy, I only found your channel recently, but it has quickly become one of my favorites. I watch you all the time! To relax at night, to keep myself from falling asleep in the shower at 6 in the morning when I feel dead, on the way to school, or just when I chilling for a while and want to watch something. I love the pure and positive vibes you put off with your channel and bubbly personality, and you inspire me to learn more about cooking and about the food of other cultures. Keep up the great work!

Blades are available on Amazon (found some machines too).

"Dazey strip'em all day!" I'm dying!!! 😂

I am SHOCKED at how well, or almost perfect actually, that this worked. Did not expect that...

Potatoes, butter AND cheese😋 Count me in 😍😍😍

I love ur vintage gadget videos. When my grandmother passed away some time back... My mother and I were cleaning thru her kitchen and we found SO MANY gadgets that we didnt know what they were for. It was fun to investigate and figure out how to use them. Although I hv to admit, there r a few still a mistery for us!

Hi Emmy... first time I have seen one of your videos! The reason I found yours is thru my sister who lives in Wisconsin. (I'm in Oregon). I had just purchased the current version of the Dazey Stripper. I got it on Amazon for around $17. It's called the Starfrit Rotato Express. Anyway, I sent her a video of me using my Rotato Express, and she calls me on the phone and said she use to have something almost like the one I have called the Dazey Stripper, and she had purchased it a thrift store also, and paid about $5. That was back in the 70's. She loved it too, but eventually it broke after several years of use. A couple of the main differences on the Rotato Express ... the power button is on the top part of the base (which I really don't like it there), but what I do like is that it takes batteries, or it can be plugged in also. Yes, I will be sending this video to my sister. She loves to cook, and I know she will also be making the Funeral Potato recipe. Thanks again Emmy for this great video!!! I look forward to watching all the rest of your videos! :-)

Its got a stripper pole!

Wow! That gadget would be perfect for me! I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia, I really struggle with peeling veg and grating cheese. Both holding an item still when force is applied and grasping the veg/cheese cause me lots of pain. I could watch the daizey stripper twirl the peel from 20 potatoes without getting bored’ very satisfying

It was incredibly satisfying to watch that peeler peel. Danke Emmy!

The best part of this video was how cute her original excitement was when she first realized just how nice her Daisy Stripper worked.

Daisy strip em all day 😂 that was so satisfying.

We make these in the Midwest, but we just call them cheesy potatoes. They're an Easter staple! Great with ham; sometimes we even add the ham to the potatoes.

Love you and your videos Emmy! ❤️ Can’t stop watchinggggg!!!

Its the perfection of your cuteness that makes all your videos so satisfying..

Funeral potatoes were a staple every time we had a ham dinner at grandmas

I'm sending this to my friend Daisy. She happens to BE a stripper. She's gonna love it 😂

I have a Dazey stripper from my mom.....she got it in the 70's too. You showed me where the replacement blades are....BLESS you!!!! funny how easy it was to miss this feature...now I'm cookin'! Thank you Emmy...I really enjoyed your presentation.

Your videos are perfect to watch while drinking my morning coffee! The lights in the background in combination with the tone of your voice makes for such a soothing video. Every morning I look for your uploads haha

The squeeze sour cream is the best advancement in food container technology ever. I love that stuff.

This is quite possibly one of the best videos I've ever watched. So satisfying somehow lol

Emmy's husband. You bought more potatoes again ? 😳🙄 Am I going to have to take this away from you🙄😳😂🤣

Emmy! Your videos give me hope for humanity. You are such a role model. Who would you say you look up to or grab inspiration from?

When I was in mortuary school, in my first semester one of the professors gave everyone who brought in home made funeral potatos or funeral sandwiches on the last day extra credit 😂

As a lifelong consumer of funeral potatoes, this video made me so happy. Although the fresh potatoes aren't traditional, I've used them before. Actually I once made them with purple potatoes and pearl onions, which was delicious. Some alternatives and alterations for anyone interested: - some recipes include cream of mushroom and/or celery soups - my mom, who never liked the canned soups, makes a white sauce instead and uses that. She also does this for green bean casserole. - alternative acceptable and delicious toppings include breadcrumbs, browned cheese, or, my favorite, crushed potato chips Funeral potatoes are the perfect accompaniment to a ham dinner. This was my requested meal for my birthday dinner this year. So good.

This is so great! I love how iconic that cream white + brown color from the 70's is, we had appliances looking like that in Norway during the 90's too :D

OMG this one I definitely remember! We had one of these in the early 80's. If you keep going down the potato, you get really fine strings. My mother would fry them like hash browns.

LOVE your older appliance series, Emmy!

I love your vintage kitchen gadget tests. We had a Dazey Stripper passed around in the family in the 70's. When someone got something they'd lend it to other members to check it out or if they got tired of it they'd pass it down. An aunt had one when she lived near a farm with apple trees and tried her hand at canning. She had an "apple peeling party" but had to remove it because we kids would just sit and watch it *lol*

I dated a Dazey Stripper once...she never pealed a potato but, it was indeed memorable. I love when you do vids on gadgets from the past...the problem is, I remember most of them as I grew up in the 1960's and 70's. PS The design of that machine is incredible. They need to make these today!

My aunt makes this a lot for family dinners. Even if I miss one, she always makes sure to drop some off for me. Its wonderful if you panfry it as a cold block of leftovers the day after.

Hehehe. This puts an all new meaning to "Hot Potato" :P Love your video's Emmy! And it was satisfying!

Emmy!! Shoutout from Utah! Not only am I very familiar with funeral potatoes, but we had that exact peeler appliance all my youth growing up! It is so satisfying and useful! Love your content! Keep it up!

I've got this new recently. It is great especially when cooking lots of potatoes. It takes very little space on my pantry shelf or in the cabinet. It frees me up to do other things. Love it!

Terrific video! Fabulous editing! Awesome recipe! I think french's fried onions would be a great topper for them taters too!

My family makes funeral potatoes for every occasion, I love them! YUM!

funeral potatoes are one of my absolute most favorite things to eat! this was awesome! thankyou!

I love how through your explanations for techniques used u are awesome

fried onions on the top of that would take that to the next level

You know, I'm actually impressed at how well that worked! I would not have expected that.

Emmy I just adore you so much. You bring such joy into my bleak life.

I am a vintage kitchen gadget junkie! After watching this demonstration and the Bloomin onion machine that you tested In another video, I ran right out to my local thrift stores looking for these myself. The very first store I was unable to find the vintage model of the peeler that you had but I did find a more updated model which is called Rotato. Of course I searched Amazon for both of these items as I do everything before I make a purchase. They didn’t have the vintage model of that vegetable stripper that you had but they had more current versions. The Rotato that I found at the thrift store sold for $20-$30 on Amazon. It worked perfectly! Yesterday I peeled 8 pounds of apples in no time. I also peeled the huge russet potatoes the day before that. One of the things that I hate in the kitchen is peeling produce. This gadget is awesome! I’ll be testing out the Bloomin onion machine this weekend. Can’t wait! Oh and by the way it was the fourth shop that I found the onion machine in and I was just about to give up. I kept looking for the box in your video but the one I found was wrapped in plastic with all parts and instructions included. I paid $4.99 for the peeler and $1.99 for the onion machine. Amazon had the onion machine but it was selling for $65.00. Score!

No one is talking about the sour cream squirting out of the bag after Emmy siad "Talking about satisfying videos". Lol 🤣

I love that dish! I call it cheesy hashbrown casserole and I use frozen hasbrowns :] I also add onions to it!

The recipe reminds me a lot of a dish that my grandma made at every holiday called 'party potatoes', nostalgic and such a satisfying video

Ah! Growing up my grandparents had one of these, they would bring it every Thanksgiving to peel all the potatoes for our huge family get together! Wonderful memories!

"So sexy".. lol, the first time i've heard that regarding this kind of stripper.

My family calls this hash brown casserole, and it is amazing! My sister begs my mom to make it all the time. She loves it so much that instead of a cake this year, she got hash brown casserole with candles on it instead! 😂

so satisfying the way the gadget peel the potatoes, and that recipe looks so tasty!!!

I have been making funeral potatoes for years and everybody loves them. The first time I learned of them was at a visitation of a co-coworker of mine. She was lovely, and when I got to the casket I noticed that she had a fork in her hand. I asked why and they said when you go to a potluck) or dinner at your church, as the cleanup is going on, they always tell.you "Save your fork, the best is yet to come". (Dessert.) Even if you don't believe, I think this is sweet. I LOVE your videos, keep 'em coming!

This episode is so sexual 😂😂😂 Emmy is getting hot for her peeler lol

That's a nice stripper.. would be neat to run a potato though several times and fry the strips :)

I used to have one of this! i loved it! My dad used to make potato nests with that, it was awesome.

I could fall asleep watching this machine peel things. So restful and nice to watch.

I wouldn't mind having that device in cabinet. Worked great!

I think I would put crushed crunchy onions on it instead of corn flakes. So many different options.

My grandpa used to buy my grandma all sorts of kitchen gadgets and she had one of these things. I remember she set it up on the counter with some potatoes and let me just whittle down a few potatoes with it. We fried them up into shoestring potatoes! Light and airy little chip fries things. So fun! Great memories. 😊

Your excitement of how it peeled is so lovely!

Emmy, you're awesome! 😃

Emmy: "Its sexy!" Me: heheh because its a stripper

Thank you so much for reviewing this. I have had one but didn't know how to use it. After watching your video, I used it to peel 8 pounds of potatoes for Christmas brunch!

I do love your enthusiasm. I grew up with commercials on TV for that item. Friends moms had it.

So many 'thats what she said' moments

Emmy YOURE AMAZING!

Am a Utahn. Can confirm we have funeral potatoes all the time for any occasion (at funerals of course but also any other dinner or gathering)

I never heard of this recipe but i'm sure i'll try it after your video !! Looks soo good !

For only $3.99, that's got to be the cheapest and hardest working stripper ever! And it runs on electricity, not dollar bills! ;-)

Video was so satisfying until you took scoop from middle of pan 😂

I watch your videos before bed while eating my midnight snack alone. It's 2:30 am and I audibly gasped at the stick of melted butter. And then there was more. 😲🤤

I wondered if it would go down the skinned potato again & give you long strings? You're fun to watch, loved your vintage quizzes.

I hate peeling. I would find counter space for this. I love potato salad but my mom would only make it on request if i peeled the potatoes. Needless to say I rarely got to eat it if it wasn't a holiday or special occasion lol

Also if you add a thing of cream of celery soup and use cube hasbrowns one with pepers and one regular it’s to die for 😂

I've had mine for years and years. Every friend I've got has been given on by me as a gift and all are thrilled. Don't like it for carrots, but apples and potatoes, whoop, whoop and they're done.

Oh I LOVE LOVE funeral potatoes! Also really good with small diced potatoes! We make it every year with a baked ham for Christmas...

was anyone elses ocd triggered when she scooped the casserole from a random spot rather then starting off at the corner?

My mom makes this all the time!!! She calls it hashbrown casserole though.

I know I'm late to the party on this but making a "pasta" dish out of the string cut potato skins is an *awesome* idea! You could make yummy creamy cheesy buttery sauce to go on top. It would be a bit like baked potato skins, but as a pasta! Also, I grew up eating "funeral potatoes" and they are *amazing!* My Mom always used fresh potatoes vs frozen as well. SO GOOD! 😋

Funeral potatoes!! My family is Mormon and from Utah, and it’s a very common and beloved dish. I grew up eating it, so whenever I get homesick, funeral potatoes is my go-to.

i would love to fry those potato peels omg !!

I cracked up when you said you'd have to perform a bit of surgery on the tater to get it to fit! I thinks from my era in the 70s and early 80s.. Pretty cool. Great video!

Emmy! From a true blue funeral potato eater and maker, I have to say you did a good job making potato casserole aka funeral potatoes. Two tips. 1st, I always add green onions! Add 2-3 stalks of chopped green onion. You'll thank me! Lol 2nd after a holiday that we had ham and there is leftover ham. I put some in the potato casserole and serve it as a main dish instead of a side dish. I have never made it with fresh grated potatoes. I boil whole potatoes the night before. Then the next day peel the cold potatoes, then grate them. Then cook time in oven is cut in half.

I remember the Stripper! And I cant imagine why they virtually disappeared! Always thought they were awesome! And those Funeral Potatoes? YUUUMM-MY!
