Salter BW04294 Healthy 3-Blade Fruit and Vegetable Food Preparation Manual Hand Spiralizer, White

Product Information

Finally, now that you’ve mastered the art of the zucchini noodle, throw it in with a heavy meat sauce. Its solidly updated features make it a simple and effective tool for spiralizing quickly and accurately. The ProCook spiralizer, meanwhile, is a great reminder that quality should always take precedence over quantity – you’ll get just two blades with this one, but their incredible sharpness puts other spiralizers’ blades to shame. Although we loved this spiralizer’s funky colour scheme, it felt somewhat flimsy, and all of the blades struggled with the tougher specimens (carrots proved especially troublesome) from our rainbow-hued range of test vegetables.

Ease of use: In the case of stand and hand-held spiralizers, we wanted to be able to attach our fruit and vegetables easily, then use a simple lever or twist motion to speedily create ribbons without having to exert too much force. It works slightly differently to the other ones we’ve featured here as vegetables are simply inserted into the tube and pushed through the reversible blade that can create either spirals or ribbons.Bonus points for the thoughtful addition of some delicious, practical recipes – the notion of a spiralized coleslaw with apple and celeriac had our tummies rumbling. This particular model also comes with a rotary grating blade, which can be used to grate vegetables for salads or even potatoes for more indulgent treats like rostis. Don’t worry, these top 10 recipes aren’t just no-cook, basic dishes (though there are a few raw recipes too).

There are different types of blade and we appreciated the self-aligning design, which minimised the movement needed to shred, grate and spiralize. We’re big fans of OXO Good Grips anyway, but this inexpensive contraption would convert the most hardened of spiralizer sceptics. If one of those family-sized tabletop spiralizers isn’t quite what you’re after, this compact offering from Joseph and Joseph might be.

Make healthy cooking fun with this superb Salter spiralizer which creates ribbons of fruit and veg to incorporate into your meals. These are my best spiralizer recipes for first-timers because they’re easy to pull together but full of flavor. Really good spiralling I did some carrots and they looked like orange noodles fab and they also take less time to cook double fab.The KitchenCraft healthy eating 3-blade compact fruit and vegetable spiralizer takes first place, simply because of its ease of use, the lack of waste generated, and the various safety measures designed to prevent us slicing fingers instead of carrots.

It’s perfect for beginner cooks or those who lack confidence in the kitchen but still want to have a few healthy recipes on hand. The non-slip grip means it’s comfortable to hold and fairly easy to use, although you’ll need to exert a bit more effort for harder vegetables like carrots. OXO’s Good Grips spiralizer is our top pick and, while it won’t win any prizes for added features, its simplicity is what makes it stand out as an easy-to-use everyday tool. Safety guards that cover the blades can be a godsend for your fingers, and blades that slide into the base of the unit when not in use make it easy to stow the spiralizer quickly and safely.

Because there’s no barrel, you’ll need to hold the spiralizer over a bowl or plate, but its ease of use means this won’t be a problem, even for the clumsiest of cooks.
