Does anyone have a recipe or tip sheet for the crinkle cutter?
 
No sheet, but there are so many things you can do with it!

Cut veggies for dip trays. The waves help hold more dip.
Slice ice cream for sundaes. Again, more toppings will sit on the crinkles.
Dice potatoes before roasting. Toss with a little oil, garlic and seasoning, then roast on the Large Bar pan.
Cut Romaine for salads.

The rocking motion can be easier on one's wrists than a hacking motion, so it's good for people who have problems using a knife.
 
It's also good for cutting herbs!
