Spiral chopper (slicer, spiralizer) for cutting vegetables and fruits

Yes, I have already agreed with you in this regard! And I also divide by 16 when I see an advertisement. But dignity is also on my mind. Now I'm comparing the Nostalgia shown above and Bella. Each has its own advantages. I think.

But what I liked was not a bunch of blades, but one that you twist to the desired size.

And completely free hands?

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larissa, there is a European version in the English Amazon

🔗

And what is important, in one of the reviews, the user pointed out an important plus - there is a smart drive that exerts uniform pressure on the vegetable, and, accordingly, its (vegetable) uniform advance / pressure during spiraling. This is essential for a great result.

Great choice

And I liked it. But it also seemed great. I did not find it in the internet.

there is a European version

Sveta, thanks, but I have a transformer, and from America I do not pay for delivery, as from English. amazon. And - yes, it is preferable to Nostalgia. There is, however, a cleaner and the possibility of chips on a stick, but here there are more advantages.

[dopleta-Larisa,]

dopleta-Larisa, of course, I congratulate you on finding what you need ..

distorted opposition

I will add to the problem of twitching: I was amused by everything else and the fact that it was supposedly necessary (SHOULD!) to cut the vegetable in order to attach it to the holder of a Kenwood / Gemlux-type spiralizer for loading into the neck ...

Yesterday, when preparing long-fruited cucumbers, I did NOT cut them into "2 parts to attach to the holder", no ...

It's simple: I took a cucumber and, holding it in my hand (without much effort, by the way), I scrolled (20 seconds) until it became possible and necessary to attach the rest of the cucumber to the holder, and then cut, holding the cucumber with the holder ( seconds 20), and in the remainder - one cone remained (sorry for the relative tautology) ...

And about washing has already been said Miranda...
I will add: and the canvas on which the sliced ​​vegetable is folded (in addition to the plate-pallet), let the dirty remain?

And there are too many exclamation mark icons that are not on the Gemlux ...

And completely free hands?

And for me this is a controversial plus. I’m standing next to you anyway. Well, I will not have time for this time that the vegetable is spinning, I will do nothing I will stand and wait for it to finish to put on a new one

holding it in hand

And here you don't need to keep anything. He also happens to be green. And in the dishwasher you can:



I don’t know, it doesn’t seem very big to me, practically the same as the spiromat. Perhaps, if there was a shortage of storage space, I would have doubted, but there is none. Everything, I will dwell on it.

And that day I look at this pribluda.

🔗

And then how to cook such potatoes?

in the dishwasher you can

how to wash everything else? For example, a canvas on which the cutting falls (and not just falls, because there is also juice, which is also released when cutting vegetables / fruits).

[Natasha]

Natashawhere the slices fall onto a separate pallet.

[Lisichkalal]

Lisichkalal, well, how, how, of course, bake. There is, after all, a dish under the general name "accordion", here is a potato just for him.

a brush is included for safe washing

For this purpose for a long time (since I got hold of Joseph Joseph "Spiro" and others like him) I have been using a Philips electric toothbrush nozzle for cleaning (or maybe just a toothbrush (but the nozzle turned out to be shorter than a "handle") ..

Oh no, also on the canvas, right! In short, when I touch it, I will write everything.

In short, when I touch it, I will write everything.

Larissa! Have you already ordered it?

And then how to cook such potatoes?

We have shown such a video here for a long time - such chips are deep-fried.

[Larissa]

there the slices fall onto a separate pallet.

Larissa, I saw that initially the slicing falls on a pallet (a special one, which is stored and attached to the equipment itself (a good idea!)), but in the process of moving the "carriage" with a blade, the sliced ​​vegetable still ends up on the canvas along which this carriage moves.

Oh no, also on the canvas, right! In short, when I touch it, I will write everything.

Oh ... you already noticed this too ...

By the way, the base-frame on which the device with blades is attached may also have to be cleaned somehow ...

We have shown such a video here for a long time - such chips are deep-fried.

So I thought that it was rather deep fat. Such pictures are delicious ready-made potatoes. Eh, deep frying doesn't suit us, so we pass by.
Larissa, congratulations on your purchase!

And for me this is a controversial plus. I’m standing next to you anyway. Well, I will not have time for this time that the vegetable is spinning, do nothing

Any pribluda is critical to me in plane and not critical in height. I liked the spirals for a long time, but I did not buy Spiromat because of the mechanics and because of the width.

I thought for a long time that I would buy a WMF KULT, but when I saw Kenwood, I immediately began to plan it. But this is already the choice of the brand, but somehow I immediately decided on the design, and others did not attract.

The width in Spiromat and similar ones is also limited. True, not like in electro, but still the product should not go beyond the blades. Basically, I only regret one vegetable - bell pepper. The rest of the vegetables / fruits I use in cooking are great.

I read the last pages, and it’s as if the battle is better.

I only regret one vegetable - bell pepper. The rest of the vegetables / fruits I use in cooking are great.

I am Gemlux / Kenwood not idealizing to the absolute ...

But with all the relative wealth of choice, I would still prefer Kenwood / Gemlux ...

Yes, the neck is 6.5, but this problem is solvable (and in general, it is easy (for such and such money, taking into account the possibilities (zucchini, carrots, cucumber, beets) (this size is even more in stores than healthy (it turned out)) , potatoes, conference pears, apples (in the direction of which, due to their size, no one wants to look (I was the same), but it turned out that they could be in demand and it was not in vain that they ripened-ripened) this is more than ...) )

I read the last pages, and it’s as if the battle is better.

or, on the contrary, it is worse (and already bought in vain) ...

Noooo. We were just discussing - thinking ... I still don't have any, at Svetik Lisichkalal already have ... We tried to understand what they are trying to sell us and whether it is worth the money

Any pribluda is critical to me in plane and not critical in height.

Gold words! In the spiralizer, I am concerned not so much with the price as with its place - occupation.

Gold words! In the spiralizer, I am concerned not so much with the price as with its place - occupation.

I, too, after having ordered my Gemlux at OZONE in the middle of the night, measured out its parking space on the countertop, and was pleasantly surprised: 133x200x365 mm (14 X 20 cm (at the very maximum! And also a "minus" rounded platform)).

not so much the price as its place - they care about

I have enough storage space, I can still have a whole kitchen. tidy up the car on the shelf. Just tidied up on the shelf is rarely used by me personally. And what is on the table top - add. knife, add. pan or add. arms. There are many wonderful helpers on the shelves. Some are large and some are simply not stylish, creating a heaping feel. Because of this, I am a slicer-slicer Pts. I gave a good one in the end. I'm too lazy to get it out, I don't put it on the table, but the device is good.

What a potato, though manual is still less interesting

I read the last pages, and it’s as if the battle is better.

Not at all! I want to figure it out! And choose your preferred one! Moreover, I haven't bought it yet. But it's not just that the price is higher. There is also exactly the same Japanese, Ming, it generally costs from $ 60 and more, I don't even look at it.

What a potato

I remember how I licked my lips on this potato (to this music) in search of a spiralizer ...

What a potato

I almost made sweet potatoes according to this recipe. Showed, sorry for repeating
Crispy sweet potato chips

[Natasha]

I remember how I licked my lips on this potato (to this music) in search of a spiralizer ...

Natasha, and did it according to this recipe? Did it turn out crispy?

Natasha, come to YOU, if possible. and I will be on YOU

[Svetlenki-Light]

I almost made sweet potatoes according to this recipe. Showed, sorry for repeating
Crispy sweet potato chips

Yes, I remembered that too, thanks a lot for the recipe (tested!) ...

and did it according to this recipe? Crispy turned out

Svetlenki-Light, I have never made potatoes yet (not yet before it (vegetables are in a queue (zucchini can spoil)),
but Miranda told me that she baked for her birthday, and Larisa-dopleta I shared my recipe here earlier ...

Natasha, come to me for YOU, if possible. and I will be on YOU

Agreed

Now I can't find it, but I came across someone's question about cutting cabbage. And I remember that I was surprised at the answer that he did not cut cabbage, but crumbled it, but then I did not have time to write that Spiromat cuts cabbage perfectly! You can plant a whole bump (of an intelligible size) and rub it with cute curls. Oh, I remembered - I read this in the reviews, not here.

Have you already ordered it?

Aha!

that spiromat perfectly cuts cabbage! You can plant a whole bump (of an intelligible size) and rub it with cute curls

This is interesting, I would never have thought

[dopleta-Larisa]

Spiromat cuts cabbage perfectly! You can plant a whole mug (of an intelligible size) and rub it with cute curls.

I also saw on a video on the Internet how spiromat cuts cabbage (such a lacy snowdrift mountain is obtained), pepper, onions ...
(but as for me, I didn’t need a spiromat for cutting these vegetables).

But the fact that he cuts eggplants, I did not see that someone would demonstrate.

dopleta-Larisa, did you manage to grind eggplant into a spiral on your devices?

[bangs]

bangs, Natasha! I have a few questions for you, can I?
Is it possible to cut in the Gemlux without a glass of the lower one (for example, the same cabbage, because there will be a lot of it in volume)?
Will the Gemlux have any other cones of other sizes, I didn't recognize?
What are the dimensions of the 3 available inserts, in the sense of how many mm by how many mm, that is, 3 by 3 or 3 by 4? 5 by 5 or 5 by 2mm, etc.
Have you tried, well, at least as a perversion to cut sausage on it? I have not thought yet where it can be applied, but it will be possible to dream up.

[Elena-Masha Ivanova]

Elena-Masha Ivanova, in Gemlux, in principle, you can cut something without the lower glass,
the main thing (in my opinion) is that the height of this bowl should be the same as a glass (since I tried to cut it straight into a salad bowl (it is lower than a glass of Gemlux, although wider), and the spirals, when they rotated and turned, began to touch the walls of the machine and dirty this wall (and I don't like that),
if this moment does not bother, then you can not bother with such a moment and cut right into the bowl).

As for the cabbage (pepper), it will not be possible to cut them at all, because there is nothing to attach them to the pusher-holder (in mechanical spiromats they are attached to the stalk (and here the size of the neck will not allow this)).

Regarding cutting sausage, there was also such an idea in my head, but I think it won't work (even if, for example, freeze it), that is, again, I think that the pusher won't hold it, and it will just scroll.
Although, you can try, if you take a raw-smoked butternik (freeze it) and cut it, holding it in your hand, without clinging to the holder, then it will probably be cut into some ...

About other blades (for example, a solid blade, like in Kenwood), I did not recognize and did not care.

I tried to photograph the patterns of the sizes of the teeth applied to the blade inserts, but so far it has not turned out, so I posted a photo of the resulting spirals here.

These are 3mm (beets) and 5mm (carrots):


And this is 9 mm:

[bangs]

bangs, Natasha, thank you! It will be interesting to find out about other nozzles. I also want to buy this spiralizer.
But as for the size of the vegetables you cut, I will say that you cannot find out from the photo how thick they are. When you cut something, please try to measure it straight with a thin ruler with millimeter divisions. Not urgently, as you do, so do.

I didn't like the spiral bow.
If raw, then it's too much in one fork. If you process, that is, fry, then it is also strange. And if the spirals are cut, then the point is to spiral it?

Vertical electric cabbage and pepper cannot.
I don't mind cabbage, because a thin shredder is better for me than a spiral. But the pepper is a pity, yes. Deliberate compromise, because the vertical structure is more to my heart.

Since there are already electric a la Spiromat, that is, the question is by hand or so that it disappears by itself, then the choice remains only to decide what you want to cut, and which design (vertical or horizontal) suits you and likes best.

I think in a year, or within a year, there will be even more new models (brands) and design options. The spiralizer as an idea fell in love with it in different countries.

it only remains to decide what you want to cut, and which design (vertical or horizontal) suits you

including the care of the corresponding structure (this is from me and people like me), as well as the place of placement and storage ...

Vertical electric cabbage and pepper cannot.

And I rolled my lip

[julia_bb]

julia_bb, roll back
When I was choosing, there were no electric spiroms. But if there were, I would take 99% vertical, because of the place. Since I needed a device with permanent storage on the tabletop, and did not take it out, I removed it from the shelf. Because everything that I took out, I took away, in the end, I got it - I didn't get it

Only the target devices got out and removed survive. Type of grinder or mill. Or the season of harvesting - they get it and do not clean it until everything is processed, and then they are cleaned again. And all the carvers, various "for every day", manual or electric, are thrown.

Concerning eggplant…

It just didn't work out the eggplant (of the appropriate size) ...

But before sharpening "just an eggplant"
I pierced another eggplant prepared for experiments with toothpicks and put it in water for an hour and a half.
He first went, and then - the holder fell off and tore apart the eggplant ...

Here's what happened (maximum (no further):


I decided not to give up, and I put the third eggplant in water for almost a day, piercing it several times with a metal skewer ...

And here's what happened.


So the eggplant doesn't go, unfortunately ...

But, I must say that he also did not sharpen on the manual Joseph Joseph Spiro (at all!), When in the summer I had an unsuccessful attempt to cut it into spirals ...

Interesting with eggplant.
Is it because of the seeds and the viscous insides?

Interesting with eggplant.
This is because of the seeds and such a viscous insides

It's hard to say, since the one that was kept in water for more than a day did not succumb to Tescom's adaptation (after the Gemlux (it would seem: a start has been made, but no ...) if there was a problem in the pusher-holder)

dopleta-Larisa, did you manage to grind eggplant into a spiral on your devices?

I have never tried it, Natasha. This week my Bella will come, and I'll try it. So far, I hope that I was not mistaken with the choice, because functionality is more important to me, not the space it occupies - I already don't keep anything on the countertops except a bread machine, I clean absolutely everything. I love clean tables. Although there is plenty of space, if I left everything I use every day on them, there would be no room left.

[Larissa]

roll back

Yes, you have to, there are no universal devices. I must choose based on what I plan to use most often)

This week my Bella will come, and I'll try it.

Larissa, it will be interesting to look at Bella)

[Miranda]

This week my Bella will come, and I'll try it. So far, I hope that I was not mistaken with the choice, because functionality is more important to me, not the space it occupies

I also hope that the choice was correct ...
Indeed, it is important to choose what exactly each of us needs for all parameters-priorities.

I remember that I bought myself a Bosch slicer (slicer) 8 years ago: it is quite functional, it took up little space (it was folded into a book) (but I don't like it (and I don't know how to make thin, even slicing)).
But I cut the food on it only 2 times (the first time (to try) and the second, which turned out to be the last), because I was tortured to clean it - "wash" (and it's not so easy - to clean it completely and all of the fat), to put in a closet for storage.

Therefore, it is important for me: functionality, ease of care and cleaning (really cleaning) and small size.

I remember how I squeaked from Bamiks, which, in addition to power, small size, is very easy to clean (without disassembling, washed, rinsed under the tap, wiped it off and here it is happiness (although Slicy did not make friends with the attachment in the form of a grater-slicer precisely because of the complexity leaving ("it cannot be in the water" (well, how to rinse it from meat, vegetable residues, etc., etc., if it cannot be put into the water under the tap (crossed out) ?!)) (and before that there was a Kenwood food processor with a blender bowl (washing it is still "happiness") (in the end - I gave it), and I took Kenwood Sense for myself without a blender, but with a nozzle (low-speed) grater-slicer).

And for me both Gemlux and Kenwood turned out to be the best choice, but Kenwood, alas, was not available.

And I agree with Miranda, that perhaps I would use the corresponding spiralizer attachment for the Kenwood kitchen machine less often than the spiralizer itself.

Perhaps I would even use the appropriate spiralizer attachment for the Kenwood kitchen machine less often than the spiralizer itself.

And I’m sure that the Kenwood attachment doesn’t suit me, because the combine itself is not on the tabletop now, and I drag it back and forth as needed, and every time less and less. Not enough space is catastrophic

[Miranda]

Spiralizer wanted for a long time, and after the review Miranda and Natasha's enticing recipesbangs, I realized - buy it! Here, just, it has ripened for an ice cream maker on CU and the spiralizer fits perfectly as a "makeweight".The choice there is small, Kenwood wanted, but the minimum cutting size - 4 mm was embarrassing (who could have guessed that the girls would gather for a joint venture in Germany). I ordered WMF Kult, now I'm waiting!

I ordered WMF Kult, now I'm waiting!

He's awesome, congratulations!

Wmf kult

before kenwood, I wanted him, he still has an inclined feed, but she does not give spirals, but breaks there

On Amazon by WMF KULT Spiralschneider take a look.

[julia_bb]

julia_bb, it's too early to congratulate, the wait for three weeks will drag on, I think, but it's nice to look forward too!
Miranda, thanks for the info, I'll see, additional bonuses always act like beads on the natives.
