Mandolines & Other Food Slicers
It's a manual food processor for your
fruits and veggies, except with greater precision. It's like running your
food through a knife instead of running a knife through your food.
As far as we know, it was the French who invented it, however it's
puzzling how it got its name from a musical instrument. In French it's
Mandoline, and in English it's Mandolin; either is acceptable.
Professionals choose adjustable platform
mandolines. The traditional Bron Professional is more versatile
and durable than any other. It's also more difficult to operate, but once
you get used to it, it's a joy. The more contemporary Matfer, though not as
versatile, combines stainless and commercial-grade plastics and is much
easier to operate.
Platform mandolines are very easy to use,
and preferred by many cooks for their simplicity of design, especially when
a limited number of thickness settings are acceptable. Insert the correct
size thickness plate and start slicing.
A turning slicer's continuous strands of fruit and vegetables have long
been used by Asian cooks. Thin strands make for faster cooking time and
more tender, flavorful results in soups or stir fry. The beautiful strands
also make wonderful garnishes.
Very thin matchstick slices a few
inches long are quickly and easily made with the flat mandolines.
SAFETY FIRST!
The blades are sharp and require special attention. Always use a safety
guard with your mandoline, or take special precautions when your fingers get
close to the blades, both while in use and when cleaning.
Cleaning mandolin slicers
should be done immediately after use, to prevent food from drying on the
parts. Blades should be washed by hand. If approved for dishwasher use,
carefully position them where they won't cut or damage other utensils with
their sharp blades. Steel units should be hand washed, dried immediately,
and lightly oiled before storing. (A small artists brush and a well of
mineral oil make this task easy and painless.) |

Frame and safety guard/pusher are made of heat
resistant, nonporous
composite fiberglass®.
The blades are crafted from high carbon stainless steel.
The mandoline's slicing blade has both a straight edge and serrated
edge.
Adjustable thickness stainless platform.
The safety guard or pusher protects your hands from the blade.
The julienne blades create vegetable/fruit sticks of various widths.
The stainless steel guiding plate located on the upper section of the
mandoline, adjusts to vary the thickness of the vegetable/fruit slices.
The straight edge of the slicing blade is ideal for slicing a variety of
foods from carrots and cabbage to lemons and potatoes paper-thin to a
full 1".
The serrated edge creates crinkle and waffle cuts.
The three julienne blades create classic julienne strips in three
different widths 1/8", 3/16" or 3/8", length 15 1/2", width 5 1/4"
