An herb stripper is a tool used to remove theleaves from herbs such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano. It is designed to gently and efficiently strip the leaves from the stems without damaging the herbs.
 
Hold the herb by the stem with one hand and hold the ceramic herb stripper with your other hand.
Place the stem of the herb into one of the holes on the herb stripper that is the appropriate size for the stem diameter.
Gently pull the stem through the hole of the herb stripper while holding onto the stem and let the leaves fall into the bowl.
Repeat the process with each stem until all the leaves are removed.
