OTHER TIPS

1.Always use the food holder and wear the cut- resistant glove when slicing. Do not use glove with moving or serrated blades.

2.Using a mandoline takes some practice. You may not get perfect results right away, but after a few tries you will be slicing like a pro.

3.To prevent foods from sticking to the mandoline surface when cutting, lightly grease the mandoline with a little cooking oil.

4.Different foods require different pressures when cutting. Softer foods, such as tomatoes, require less pressure while harder foods such as butternut squash call for more consistent pressure.

5.It is easiest to cut foods that are flat on the bottom. Trim rounded edges so they are flush with the cutting surface.

6.Use our measurement markings as a guide, but enjoy the freedom of the in-between measurements – which are not marked – to allow more cutting options.

7.Prepare a quick salad or stir-fry with a mix of julienned and sliced vegetables.

8.Prepare fruit or vegetable platters in a flash for your house guests.

9.For coleslaw in a minute, set the thickness adjustor to ¹∕8-inch. Slice a mix of cabbages and julienne carrots to make a colorful salad tossed with your favorite dressing.
