TinasKitchen said:I dont have the veggie peeler, am not too great on using the APCS b/c if the apples arent JUST right. So can I use my mandolin but keep the skins on for the recipe? Would that make much of a difference?
A veggie peeler is a handheld tool with a sharp blade used for peeling the skin off of fruits and vegetables. A mandolin is a kitchen tool that slices fruits and vegetables into thin, even pieces.
A veggie peeler is best for removing the skin of fruits and vegetables, such as potatoes, carrots, and apples. It can also be used to make thin strips of vegetables for dishes like stir-fries and salads.
A mandolin is ideal for slicing fruits and vegetables into uniform, thin slices. It is great for making vegetable chips, slicing cucumbers for salads, and creating even slices for dishes like gratins and tarts.
Both a veggie peeler and a mandolin can be used to make zucchini noodles, but a mandolin will create more consistent, thin noodles. However, a veggie peeler can be used to make thicker, wider noodles.
When using a mandolin, it is important to always use the hand guard to protect your fingers from the sharp blades. It is also important to keep your fingers away from the blades while slicing and to use a cutting board or protective gloves to prevent accidental cuts.
