Chiba Mandoline Quirélois [beige]

Why use a mandoline when we have knives? Well, the answer is ... consistency! Our new Quirélois Mandoline slices fruits and veggies into consistently sized pieces that cook evenly and look great.

A mandoline is the most useful and dangerous nonknife tool you can have in the kitchen. Its sole purpose is to uniformly cut vegetables. it's perfect if you want to create same-sized foods for uniform cooking - if all the food is the same size, it will cook at the same rate - or you may want the food to have a uniform look for display on a table or plate. 

This hand-held vegetable and fruit slicer has an adjustable thickness and additional blades of different sizes and shapes mounted on a fixed surface. The blades can be changed easily and quickly, so you can switch between making wide slices, thick cuts, and long, narrow, or extremely thin julienne strips. The indentation on the underside of the mandoline allows it to be placed stably on the edge of the bowl while slicing.

Blade options: straight edge, wide (2,5 mm) and fine (1 mm) comb. It is also possible to adjust the thickness of the cut from 0,5 mm to 3 mm. The attachments can be changed quickly and easily and the main (flat) blade is very easy to sharpen. The included cutting holder ensures the safety of your fingers and its snug fit makes it easy to stow away in the mandoline underside.

Available in three colors: magenta, all black, and sandy beige.

☝️ Just don't forget to watch your fingers! It is notoriously known as the "finger guillotine". 😳
