Used to  make professional-looking garnishes and angel hair-like raw pasta from fresh vegetables.  Quickly creates continuous spiral strands, ribbons or thin slices.  Set the blade to the desired width setting and rotate; a clear plastic base collects the vegetable cuttings.  Simply rotate the handle over firm whole vegetables like radishes, carrots, cucumbers and zucchini.

This unit does require some practice to achieve beautiful garnishes.  It is important to use veggies that are relatively straight or have very little curve. Vegetables should be cut into pieces 3 1/2 inches long or shorter with ends cut perfectly straight. Make sure that the vegetable is centered in the spiral slicer.  With some practice and acquired skill you’ll be making lovely garnishes

Please note that this product is often called the Saladacco after the name of the original Japanese made spiral slicer.
