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

And formulate: what?

And what is yours?

I have Spiromat, Gal. Once, in the next local boom, she snapped it off.

formulate: what?

I don’t know, Anh, I somehow didn’t go into details. Well, if you take, for example, the same zucchini: chopped into strips, it did not go at all with us, I mean a salad, but a coiled one, dressed in the same way, flies away instantly. Therefore, we simply decided that zucchini is tastier from spirom, and we did not think about it anymore.

Maybe the dressing absorbs more due to the larger surface area

Well, if you take, for example, the same zucchini: chopped into strips, it did not go at all with us, I mean a salad, but a coiled one, dressed in the same way, flies away instantly. Therefore, we just decided that zucchini is tastier from spiromat, and did not think about it anymore.

Here I am about the same. To think about what, and why ... The main thing for me is that it is tasty to eat healthy, and this is the main thing

Maybe the dressing absorbs more due to the larger surface area

The area is exactly the same - simple math😁. On the contrary, if we take into account the mini-mini-areas of the cut ends, then the absorption surface is larger for the cut ends. Let's stop, because it's obvious that it's tastier only due to aesthetics.

The area is exactly the same - simple math

I disagree. The ends also have an area. And also absorb the dressing.

It also depends on the vegetable.

For example, potatoes. It is unlikely that someone rubs it on a grater for frying. Cut into cubes, bars. The spiral is thinner than any such cut, and the taste is also different from this. That is, as for the potato, the spiral for him is a new life

Nobody likes my carrots when roasted or steamed. Neither shabby nor cut. In a spiral form and in the oven and in a frying pan - it flies away.

Well, I am for the fact that cutting affects the taste.

I disagree. The ends also have an area. And also absorb the dressing.

So I'm writing about this! That often cut slices have a larger area than long ones! Due to the ends !!!



You write that spirals are tastier because

Maybe the dressing absorbs more due to the larger surface area

And I write that

On the contrary, if we take into account the mini-mini-areas of the cut ends, then the absorption surface is larger for the cut ends.

Well, I am for the fact that cutting affects the taste.

And I will repeat once again - I am talking about vegetables cut in one thickness! Well, nobody hears me. Put the same cut pieces of vegetables into your mouth with your eyes closed. I give a tooth - you will not feel the difference!

Svetlenki, Sveta, how is your "Japanese"? I look forward to your impressions!

They brought it! I thought I couldn't wait - the delivery time was almost over. I'm glad. So far, only a report on potatoes and carrots. It is very convenient to work, washing is super convenient.

She specially showed how alcohol should stand on the kitchen surface. That's right, with two legs hanging from the edge of the countertop.



Carrots are simply "curl" (curl without a comb) I was not impressed by the word "in any way" ... I write off the spring carrots, which are already dry.

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki, Sveta, and what - it did not turn out to be a long spiral tape? Carrots seem to be the same here, but they are cut.

and what - it did not turn out to be a long spiral tape

No, it didn't work out. It cracks, not flexible. Another reason may be the thickness of the cut with this large built-in blade. I'll try again - maybe a single copy of such a carrot was caught ...

And so far I have tried only carrots with narrow spirals, a wider cucumber and a tomato of the same. I taste better too

Next in line tomorrow is pepper and daikon. And a pear.
For those who are afraid of physical effort: the handle can be turned with one finger.

For those who are afraid of physical effort: the handle can be turned with one finger.

Yes, I noticed it too. And the even pressure on the carriage should also not be strong! Moreover, it seems to me that men, excuse me, men, may have problems using the spiralizer, because they are stronger and will press harder to feed the vegetable, and this is completely unnecessary and can lead to the vegetable slipping and unnecessary release of a large amount of juice

Inexplicable, but it tastes better for me too (Lorik, I'm sorry)

Girls! do you think, in principle, a simple horizontal spiralizer can be unsuccessful?
I run around Ibei and Amazons, considering different options. Ibey sends an offer of a very cheap spiralizer by e-mail. I already wanted to pay and my hand trembled.
who bought a cheap one on Ali, look ... it looks like yours?

That's not impressive manual

[Cirre]

Cirre, Galinawhy?

[Nathalte]

Nathalte, NatashaEveryone says that they operate with one finger, and if you look at how a person presses on a carrot, I like the electric one more. And then for the manual ones, you need to level the vegetable, cut it off.

electric

when there is a choice between an electrician and a mechanic, the husband does not even consider the options for a "mechanic", only an electrician is bought. So it was with the dough roll for example. He flatly refused to buy a mechanic, said that it is electric and is electric. The difference in price never bothers him. Better to buy more expensive, but better. This is his principle.

And then for the manual ones, you need to level the vegetable, cut it off.

It is just necessary to cut off for electric ones with a narrow neck. At least three of us have both horizontal mechanical and vertical electrical. It seems to me that we need to listen to them.
If we mean trimming carrots from both ends, it is generally not clear from what fright she does this. I inserted the carrot without any improvement in its shape and cut it on the smallest insert for salad - it was absolutely not hard for me. The first thing I did was ask Dopleta this moment.

So it was with a dough sheeter for example

I bought a motor for the dough rolling machine - there it is better without a market with a motor. In general, you should be guided by the opinion of those with whom your thoughts and feelings coincide. For me, in this sense, Doplet is an indisputable authority.

[Anna]

for manual ones, you need to level the vegetable, cut it off.

I did not level the celery root at all and did not cut the tops of the heads, cut off the skin and that's it.

but it tastes better for me too

Anna, so it was not in vain that I took it, congratulations!

That's not impressive manual

but don't put something large in electro, and celery, for example

2 ladies on the forum, Larisa and Tanya, said that the mechanical one is very good. Personally, I trust both of them.

there without a market with a motor is better.

Everyone is different.

In general, you should be guided by the opinion of those with whom your thoughts and feelings coincide.

Maybe..

And I can’t cut the pepper horizontally. it's hands or peppers to blame

[win-tat]

win-tat, thanks, I took your opinion into account too

[Mirabel]

Mirabel, Vika, if you want to twist your hand, then you can take any. Then it's better to take one like Larisa showed. Horizontal and automatic.

[Cirre]

Cirre, Galina, Yes, Gal, I think about him.But, in my opinion, manual ones are more compact

But, in my opinion, manual ones are more compact

Yes, you have to think, will you get him out of the bunks for the sake of three vegetables ...The girls' vertical electric stands proudly on the tabletop, as I understand it - beautiful and stylish. But the horizontal line is aesthetically less attractive. And another question of washing this machine with a motor. I shoved mine all under the tap, brushed it a couple of times and turned it over on the dryer to dry.

2 ladies on the forum, Larisa and Tanya, said that the mechanical is very good

I will be the third.
And in general, after reading Temko, I do not quite understand why it is all so up in arms against the "mechanics"? An excellent thing (I'm talking for Spiromat, if that's what), without any effort, it allows you to quickly cope with a bunch of all kinds of vegetables and fruits (fruits, by the way, I don't really like spiraling - they break, infections, in a salad). At first I succumbed to the general excitement and decided to want a vertical one, and then, as I learned that the products need to be adjusted to the throat of the "receiver", at the moment I recovered from Wishlist. I am sure that electric vertical spiralizers are very good machines, but in my particular case, this is not an option at all. Well, or you just need to accustom yourself to buy only small vegetables at once, so that your head does not hurt, where to put the scraps from large ones ... In general, I took out my Spiromat, smacked it and calmed down.

Why is it all so up in arms against the "mechanics"?

Moreover, pay attention, they took up arms, in the bulk of those who did not work on mechanics.

Inexplicable, but it tastes better for me too (Lorik, I'm sorry)

My dear doctor, tell me (remembering our conversation about the specific gravity of water) - how can the chemical composition of the product change depending on the change in the radius of its cutting?
More appetizing due to aesthetics - yes! Say so - more appetizing, but not tastier!

Yes, you have to think, will you get it out of the bunks for the sake of three vegetables ... The vertical electric one of the girls proudly stands on the tabletop, as I understand it - beautiful and stylish. But the horizontal line is aesthetically less attractive.

An important reason for me. I rarely get what I put on the shelf. Well, I don’t know why. But these are devices abandoned over time and wasted money, except for the targeted type of meat grinder.

I don't understand why such a dispute unfolded here, with some kind of direct pressure

I don't understand why such a dispute unfolded here, with some kind of direct pressure

No, what are you, never mind.
There is nothing to argue about - each device will find its owner.

why is there such a dispute

Where is the dispute

I’ll tell you personally. Whether I want to decide or not, what I don't want is manual, that's for sure. So electric, well, now we need to understand which one. All the same, I tend to Kesha, there is a dacha and there is an opportunity to choose those vegetables and fruits that will enter and will be cut

Tell me (remembering our conversation about the specific gravity of water) - how can the chemical composition of a product change depending on the change in its cutting radius?

For the sake of fairness, it should be noted that about the specific gravity of water, our opinions coincided with you - as usual. But here - you are probably right. To understand this exactly, you probably need to compare, say, Berner's cut and this one. Although I'm used to the salad from cubes (also, by the way, by the way), that's why I feel the difference. Okay, a new toy that cheers up - good anyway.

[Cirre]

I want to decide or not

CirreGal, I've already decided for myself - I want to. But what is the question! I want an electric one, but there is a problem with it because of the size of the receiver. I do not want to be manual, but with it there is no this problem with the size of vegetables. Here's what to do? Eternal dilemma

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki, Svetlana, and in the photo there is a spiral potato - is it cut in the middle with a 1x1 nozzle? This nozzle is very interesting to me.

[Ilmirushka]

Ilmirushka, Ilmira! Buy an electric vertical and spiral vegetables of the selected size on it. Many here (like you and me) have not tried spiral cut vegetables at all.If you start to use it and realize that you cannot live without different spirals and that you only lack for happiness to cope with cabbage, giant zucchini, etc., then think about purchasing a second, horizontal one. And which one, expensive electrical or mechanical, cheaper or completely cheap, it will be considered later. In the meantime, enjoy the vertical.
And the purchased large vegetables are cut or grated as before. Do not spiral them into all the dishes!

If you start to use it and realize that you cannot live without different spirals

Lena, so I don't want to take everything (3!), I want one for all occasions ... but you can't put your nose to your lips! And you have already taken the baby and are enjoying it, right?

[Ilmirushka]

Ilmirushka, Ilmira! No, I didn't. But so far I am tuned in to Kenwood and have already ordered an additional disk to it. That's how the disc comes, then I'll buy it.

and already ordered an additional disk to it. That's how the disc comes, then I'll buy it.

Understood, Len, you first the wheels, then the carriage? It is also an option

[Ilmirushka]

Ilmirushka, Ilmira! Everything is simple here. The disc that I ordered is 2 x 2 mm Without this disc size, the Kenwood spiralizer does not quite suit me. And, given the fact that it is not so easy to buy additional disks, I prefer to wait for it to come to me for sure.

[Masha Ivanova]

Masha Ivanova, Lena, well then, tell me, is this your ordered CD only suitable for Kenwood, or are they mutually suitable for other brands?

[Ilmirushka]

Ilmirushka, Ilmira! Now I'll write in a personal.

How can the chemical composition of the product change depending on the change in its cutting radius?

ABOUT! Although I am not aware of your discussion about the specific gravity of water, I can probably do something about the chemical composition.
As soon as I get free - I will come with info.

[Accomplishment]

Accomplishment, waiting, very interesting. And then I wait, wait, when your promised desire to me will overtake you unexpectedly - I still can't wait

[Accomplishment]

Accomplishment, Lena, I'm already sitting

[Oksana1999]

Svetlenki, Svetlana, and in the photo there are spirally potatoes - cut in the middle with a 1x1 nozzle? This nozzle is very interesting to me

Oksana1999, Oksana, yes, it's her. And the carrot next to the torn thick rings is also her. This attachment is called "angel hair". It is not difficult to work with it, it turns out long, long thin spaghetins

As soon as I get free - I will come with info

Accomplishment, Lena, all impatient

Cirre, Gal, I've already decided for myself - I want to. But what is the question! I want an electric one, but there is a problem with it because of the size of the receiver. I do not want to be manual, but with it there is no this problem with the size of vegetables. Here's what to do? Eternal dilemma

Buy like Larissa's (Doplets). It is both electric and horizontal. And you will not need to suffer with the size of vegetables. Anything as you want.

Is it possible for the uninitiated to model?

[Gata]

Gata, Anya, what Larisa has is not suitable for everyone, for her many, many devices work through a stabilizer. In my opinion, the spiralizer is also not suitable for our power grids. I think we discussed this issue with her.
