Spiraliser

terraalba, Feb 17, 2:11am
Came across a recipe that suggested that zucchini can be spiralised in a gadget that's designed for the purpose. The other alternative was to use a mandolin. This is to make spagetti-like strips as a low-carb option instead of spaghetti. Well I do have a mandolin kind of gadget so did that but am wondering if anyone who has a spiraliser could tell me if these gadgets are useful and successful please

Some of them are really really expensive . just buy one that looks like a peeler . (hand tool type) does the same job

I use a julienne slicer that I use, I find it better than my mandolin. It looks like a regular vege peeler with teeth. I bought it from Stevens originally, link below. It's great for veges for wraps and stirfries too

Stevens have got them on special. They where just displaying this morning. They looked as though it would take up a it of room storing it. Look on the website the sonnet kitchen she shows you how to make courgette spaghetti.
