Saladacco -- spiral slicer
 Quickly creates continuous spiral strands, ribbons or
thin slices from vegetables. The Spiral Slicer originally from Japan is
used exclusively to make edible decorative garnish in many oriental dishes.
Name change!
These spiral slicers are now made in China. The "Saladacco"
is no longer being commercially exported from Japan. This is the model
that is commonly sold as the "Saladacco", at our store and other
outlets.
Why we love it
This tool is great for raw foodists, vegans and anyone who wants to get
more vegetables into their life. Our favourite saladacco recipe is raw
spaghetti pasta (or courgetti,
as we call it!!). Just twirl a courgette through the machine, and watch
long strands of courgette pasta come out!
Turn almost any firm vegetable into fine spaghetti-like strands or incredibly
thin, long ribbons
Make professional-looking garnishes, onion rings, potato nests, elegant
salads, vegetable pizza toppings, and so much more.
Vegetables can also be turned into thin, uniform slices, julienne strips
or tiny cubes by adding cuts prior to slicing, as shown below.

 For
best results when using the Spiral Slicer:
- Apply constant downward pressure to the handle, while rotating. This
will ensure the item being spiralized will come in contact with the
blade.
- Produce selection is paramount for the machine to work correctly.
It is important to purchase FIRM (not soft) zucchini, and not "jumbo"
ones that tend to have alot of seeds.
- If purchasing Cucumbers, English Cucumbers work best.
- You want to purchase produce that is shaped like a log, straight (not
curved)
