Selecting for Julienne Cuts
There are two julienne blades inserts.
To replace with either one of these blades,
flip the black lever at the bottom of the
unit. Flipping downward, it will push the
plate up, releasing it. (Figure 10 &10a).
Flipping it back (Figure 9), allow you to
exchange the plate to the new one. Press
at the center of the blade to lock it down.
This large julienne blade (Figure 14) is
ideal for a variety of foods, such as carrot
sticks, potatoes french fries, zucchini
sticks and much more. Your imagination
is the limit. However, the blades works
best on firm vegetables and fruits. Overly
soft vegetables and fruits will tend to tear,
rather than julienne cleanly.
The small julienne blade is ideal for creat-
ing thin carrots cuts such as those used
on salad toppings, cucumber shreds,
potato hash, etc. Again, firm fruits and
vegetables works best.
Be sure that the lower plate with the built
in serrated cut is in the close position so
that it does not protrudes and that your
food item will glide over that blade.
Note: The blades are extremely sharp. Be
very careful when working with the man-
doline. Always use the included safety
food holder.
