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

[Anna1957]

Anna1957, Anna, the spiralizer on the second link is also limited in the size of vegetables and fruits, it seems to me that the first one is more convenient and functional, although it is larger in size, but can it be possible to store it vertically?

can it be possible to store it vertically?

Yes, I have enough space, I am more interested in ease of use. Yes, and I trust Dopleta, which does not see much difference between such a manual and an electric one.

[Zamorochka]

I put a mechanical Salter into the basket on Ozone, it's a discount now and my points are gone, it will cost 950 with delivery. There are practically no real reviews, only test drives.

Zamorochka, Galina, see reviews on Amazon with us. But be critical of reviews. There are people with hands from ... well ... the wrong place ... But there are reviews

🔗

here is what spiral to buy.

If a spiralizer is needed to be able to cut cabbage / peppers / onions on it, then, apparently, it is better to take a mechanical or similar electric one.

But here's what I noticed: not a single cutting cycle on a mechanical or electrical horizontal is shown in full, in order to objectively (and for objectivity) say that such and such a vegetable will take 1 minute (or 3 minutes (but this is already a long time, in general something)) ...

As for the Gemlux (Kenwood), there is a video of the Gemlux test, from which you can see that it takes 30 seconds for carrots (I just spotted from this video), for beets - less than 10 seconds ...
Spiral chopper (slicer, spiralizer) for cutting vegetables and fruits # 243

It's not entirely clear to me, and I apologize for this, why use a spiralizer, with its such functionality, in order for it to cut (or cut on it) within 7-10 minutes (or 3 - 5 (I don't know)) cabbage (and then collect this stack of cabbage on the table) ...

Although it is everyone's choice, what and why he needs ...

threw a mechanical Salter,

Review of the spiralizer Salter "Spiralizer"
(carrots, cabbage, onions)



According to the author, shinkov takes 2 minutes, but the video does not show a single cycle in full.

[Zamorochka]

Zamorochka, Galina, let's not hesitate, for such a price, take it, then you will tell us.

I would take, but: secret: ashamed to say I have different graters, but Berner is not. Ozone sent 500 as a gift, so I chose between a grater and Gemlux, while I was studying the topics, a discount appeared on the graters .. in general, she won. Last night she ordered, of course, everything that could be discounted to her was thrown ... Now a message has come - you can already pick it up, I have never seen such agility from Ozone.

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki, Sveta, thanks for the link, read
bangs, Natasha, so this alarmed that there is no process anywhere from beginning to end. All videos are for advertising purposes, no more, so the device is still in the store's basket.



Svetlana777, Svetlana, now I will read the Amazon reviews and decide

It's not entirely clear to me, and I apologize for this, why use a spiralizer, with its such functionality, in order for it to cut (or cut on it) within 7-10 minutes (or 3 - 5 (I don't know)) cabbage (and then collect this stack of cabbage on the table) ...

IMHO. If I twist it myself, then I will definitely be lazy, that's why I didn't want mechanical. If you plant and spin by itself, then a nice thing. Let me spin as much as I want Robots I really respect.And it seems to me that the cabbage can be stopped. Twisted as much as necessary and stopped. I hope so. The device is on the way.

[Zamorochka-Galina,]

no process anywhere from start to finish

Zamorochka-Galina, Have you watched this video?

[Anna1957]

dopleta, but how long will such a care take: disassembled, rinsed under the tap, rubbed, assembled? Quickly he understands, is he going?
And I understand correctly that the blades change right off the bat? Have you at least screwed up a half-tank, changed it and continue to play?

Very quickly, Ira. And blades me fast. On the insert with knives on the side, a button - pressed, took off the knives, scrolled to the desired position, inserted into place.
Anna1957, Anya, I also think that the horizontal salter is more convenient than the vertical one. It is not limited by either the diameter or the volume of the bowl.

I apologize for this, why use a spiralizer, with its such functionality, so that for 7-10 minutes (or 3 - 5 (I don't know)) he cut (or cut) cabbage

According to the author, shinkov takes 2 minutes, but the video does not show a single cycle in full.

Natasha, in the first quote “I don’t know” is the key word. ”We have a lot of owners of mechanical spirom here, and they know something. Even if of all the vegetables cut in two minutes by the author of the video, a whole (!) minute, then even in this case, IMHO, it is more valuable that there is generally the possibility of cutting it.

I watch various videos, read reviews, that links appear here, and yet I have a subjective opinion that vertical is more convenient to use, while horizontal options are more in terms of product size.

And I prefer vertical ones. It's like with multicooker - I absolutely don't perceive round ones and with buttons on the side. It’s not convenient for me to bend over to turn it on, I don’t like the round barrel on the table, I ended up giving away such a cartoon, and I don’t look at them anymore, even the most beautiful ones. But oval and with buttons at the top - I love it very much.

I keep looking at different grinders and I want to and I don’t know if I need to or not, here at Ali it seems like the price for a sample is more or less, probably the quality is in question

do you think it's worth it or not?

I read reviews on Amazon, all are different, most of them are not on the case, but that the spirals are good for salads, diets, children, etc., there are not many negative ones at all, and mainly concern breakdown, and the fact that the spirals do not come out in a container, (it is strange, but what is not smart enough to substitute any container)
Okay, the price is ridiculous, I will order, in the end the points will be lost anyway, but I will get experience of use.
As the saying goes, it is better to regret what you have done than to regret what you missed.

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larisa, thank you! I will wait for your feedback as you use it)

And I prefer vertical

I completely agree .

I watch various videos, read reviews, that links appear here, and yet I have a subjective opinion that vertical is more convenient to use, while horizontal options are more in terms of product size.

I am for convenience (both during use and after (and before))! ...

Natasha, in the first quote “I don’t know” is the key word. "We have a lot of owners of mechanical spiromat here, and they know something. Even if from all the vegetables cut in two minutes by the author of the video, a whole (!) minute, then even in this case, IMHO, it is more valuable that there is generally the possibility of cutting it.

Then why do they so rarely want to use them, Larisa, even you?
And "I don't know" because I really don't know: no one has ever shown the full cycle ...

Then why do they so rarely want to use them, Larisa, even you?

I already wrote, Natasha - because it is more convenient for me to eat vegetables grated on a thin electric grater than to cut these long spirals in a salad! It's just inconvenient! Though beautiful.

I ordered a mechanical one on Ozone in order to compare the impressions later, but all this despite the fact that both Gemlux and mechanical cost me a 50% discount, so you can afford these toys.
I am beginning to love Gemlux, even though it is necessary to select the size of a vegetable or fruit. Today I made a salad, grated everything that could be grated with a long cucumber, zucchini, carrots, beets, and cut the tomato, radish, young cabbage into strips using Status graters. I added green onions, herbs, pumpkin seeds, seasoned with a little sesame oil.
Oh God, this is so delicious !!!
Gemlux perfectly copes with solid vegetables, instantly cuts them. Here are just a cucumber fails, but this is not the wine of the spiralizer, these are cucumbers that look and feel solid, but the process begins, it gives a lot of juice, apparently greenhouse ones, they are now.
I don’t know if my husband and I thought or it really was, but the taste of salad cut on a spiralizer seemed to us tastier than if I used to cut it on graters.
And yet, I cut the spirals into a salad bowl smaller than they came out of the spiralizer, I just chopped them in two places on the board so that they were shorter)))

[Zamorochka]

Zamorochka, mine say that a spiral vinaigrette is tastier than cubes

And I also noticed that if you turn off or stop pressing in the middle of the process, then heavy vegetables (potatoes, beets, carrots) can break off themselves. That is, I do not cut, but simply stop or stop pressing for a second, and then again. And then short spirals.

[Zamorochka-Galina]

I don’t know if my husband and I thought or it really was, but the taste of salad cut on a spiralizer seemed to us tastier than if I used to cut it on graters.

Zamorochka-Galina, I am so glad that the Gemlux made me happy!
So it seems to me (and not so much it seems as I am sure of it) that vegetables are tastier in spaghetti spirals!

And the care is very simple!

[Miranda]

I don't cut, I just stop or stop pressing for a second and then again. And then short spirals.

Miranda, thanks for the advice, now I will use it

And the care is very simple!

That's for sure, a minimum of body movements, as they say, just rinse with water. I love devices, without dancing with tambourines

I just stop or stop pressing for a second and then again. And then short spirals.

I do that too ... and zucchini and carrots and cucumber (so far only rubbed it) ..... I just crush it with jerks ...

Who is interested in mechanical, look what Ali is on, with five blades

True, it is not clear what kind of holder is here, whether a large vegetable can withstand ... Although both cabbage and zucchini are present in the pictures.

[dopleta]

dopleta, and he does not have an additional handle to move the fetus. Is this good or bad?
And which of the small ones is more in demand? I mean, do I need 5? Or is 3 enough?

Anya, that's enough! To me . Maybe someone needs more than five.

True, it is not clear what kind of holder is here, whether a large vegetable can withstand ... Although both cabbage and zucchini are present in the pictures.

Larissa, there is a pin on the left behind the socket, on which the vegetable is planted - and on the right there is a round plate with needles.
This one is similar to those that we exhibited at the beginning of the topic.



And these seem to me more comfortable (albeit mechanical), copes well, and the vegetables come out "in free flight" and do not crumple in cramped conditions.

dopleta, and it does not have an additional handle to move the fruit. Is this good or bad?

Lorik, what can you say about the promotion pen? It is just visible in the picture in the previous post.

[Admin]

And they seem more comfortable to me

Tanya,!

It is just visible in the picture in the previous post.

Anya, so I have one! And it seems to me that there is no urgent need for a handle - the vegetable is advanced by pressing the rotating handle. Admin, Tatyana, what do you think about this? I'm not with him now, so I don't remember very well, but I don't think I use it.

[Zamorochka]

Anh, the system is different here. The spiromat that Tanya shows has the whole carriage going.And in white and green from aliexpress, the pin on which the handle is worn extends. But how convenient is it?
Salter has that Galina-Zamorochka ordered, the same system as that of spiromat

[Accomplishment]

Accomplishment, yes, I also ordered on Ozone, but I can refuse, he will only arrive on the 16th. Therefore, I am trying to understand - I am figuring out whether I need 5 cutting options or 3 is enough. Wait 3 months with Ali, and 2 weeks with Ozone. And one model has already been tested and approved, and the other has not yet been tried.

I too toil - I want to have fun, but I'm always for electric bells and whistles. But Kenwood and Bella are not yet available. Probably, I'll follow your footsteps, order on ozone. If it turns out to be in demand, I will think about electrical ones. With Ali, I also feel good about the number of attachments. But I don’t want to wait!

With Ali, I also feel good about the number of attachments.

Completed 3 is enough. And the system of attachment and promotion of this new one is a big question. And reviews that cracked parts come (((

[Larissa]

Admin, Tatiana, what can you say about this? I'm not with him now, so I don't remember very well, but I don't think I use it.

Larissa, the pen is very necessary. It can be problematic to do two things at once - and move forward and turn the handle, here it also depends on how tightly the vegetable sits, and depends on the vegetable itself, long, strong, soft, loose, etc. Therefore, it is convenient for me move the carriage forward with your left hand, and turn the handle with your right hand
Mine has suction cups on a platform that allows the appliance to stand firmly on the table.
And I like that vegetables do not crumple in cramped conditions when they come out ready-made after cutting, more natural and airy

I've got suckers on mine

So I have exactly the same, westmark spiromat. It was first shown by Caprice, having bought it in Israel, Kitchen little things (1) # 1077, and I immediately bought after her, in the 12th year - go crazy, more than six years have passed Kitchen little things (1) # 1101... By the way, at the beginning of work, in the video, the cook does not hold it by the handle at first, but simply put his left hand on top. Then, apparently, he remembered about her and took up.



Here is the eggplant. Of course, you can't cut spaghetti out of it - the pulp is too loose for this, but a wide spiral is quite. Plump eggplant, more than 10 cm in diameter:

[dopleta]

dopleta, cool eggplant!
What will you do with it next?

Yes, the eggplant cannot be made vertical, though, because of the loose insides. Although, I will try anyway when they appear unpaved.

Happy shopping to everyone, joy from using them!
Inspiration, ideas!
And for now I won't cook anything, I'm leaving for a sanatorium again (now - to the Crimea!).

[dopleta]

dopleta, cool eggplant!
What will you do with it next?

That's the point, Miranda! I even wanted to write above “but a wide spiral is quite (but why?)”. And what will I do - sauté, adding other vegetables.



Natasha, happy journey, excellent rest and good health!

[dopleta]

dopleta, yes, it is a pity that the eggplant does not turn out to be a spiral, it could be fried somehow in Chinese. It may be wide, but the wok is deep and there is a lot of oil.

Well, okay, there are enough other vegetables

But he will still immediately go limp and lose shape.

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larisa, and if you cut a carrot with a spiral, then the remainder is like a fungus in the spiromat?

[Oksana1999]

Oksana1999, Oksana, for a mechanical one - yes (while the end of the carrot, which is attached to the holder, is wide, it is advisable to leave it as rounded as possible), for an electric one - no.

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larissa! If you didn't have a single horizontal spiralizer, would you buy electrical or mechanical? (With equal holders in them, on which vegetables are attached).

[Larissa]

Here is the eggplant. Of course, you can't cut spaghetti out of it - the pulp is too loose for this, but a wide spiral is quite.

Larissa, on time you and your eggplant I have it today, I think how to cut it - now I know "how"
I want to make pasta sauce

[Masha Ivanova]

Masha Ivanova, Elena, here is a very difficult question. It was then, in the 12th year, and the mechanical was a miracle of technology, there were no electrical ones. And now my hands are sore ... so - electric, yes.



Finally, hands came to the carrot spaghetti:

And now my hands are sore.

Laris, and what: do you have to apply a lot of strength to pull it off? Will healthy hands also be a problem?

No, no, quite a bit, Anya! He does everything himself, effortlessly. I often rotate (not "often rotate", but it often happens that ...) with my hands it hurts - RA.

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larisa, thank you!

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larisa, thanks for the carrot)

To your health! Yes, I haven't shown cucumber spaghetti yet, only ass From him

By the way, about the mushrooms. Now, if you leave such a rounded end of a cucumber, carrots, potatoes, radishes, etc. on the holder of a mechanical spirom, then mushrooms will turn out there! There is no. There, the inner diameter of the ring on the knives opposite to the holder is larger.

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larissa! The spaghetti is great! And the ass is also nothing. We'll attach the whole thing, even mushrooms, even flowers, even ass.

Butts from radishes or cucumbers can be arranged like this:

Girls, I studied here deeply the topic of spiralizers. I made a choice for myself - horizontal mechanical and purposefully looked for a Japanese. Because the culture of slicing "angelic" vegetable noodles in Japanese cuisine has existed for centuries. And if they don't do the best, then who?

I came to the conclusion that, of course, in addition to cutting "combs", the mechanism for feeding the vegetable to the cutter is very important.

Such a mechanism is most praised in terms of the stability of the vegetable and the ease of the scrolling process. This is the Chiba Kaiten Japanese Spiralizer model

Blades

On the American Amazon

🔗

The reviews are rave.

I also found a Japanese, but a simpler model. Lucky with the price of a local ibey

Model on the American Amazon

🔗

This is what I mean - runners for the movement of the carriage are absolutely necessary, it seems to me. Well, the quality of the cutting blades ... All this will provide at the exit not porridge from vegetables, but high-quality spirals-spaghetti

These are just my thoughts. I will test it when I arrive, I will definitely unsubscribe.
