FAQ List

What is a salad spinner?

A salad spinner is a tool used to remove excess water from washed salad greens, herbs, and other vegetables. It typically consists of a perforated basket that sits inside a larger bowl. The basket is filled with wet greens and spun rapidly, using a crank or pull-cord mechanism. The centrifugal force pushes the water out of the greens and into the bowl, leaving the greens dry and ready to use.

What is a mandoline?

A mandoline is a kitchen tool used for slicing fruits and vegetables. It typically consists of a flat surface with adjustable blades that can be set to varying thicknesses. The food is placed on the surface and pushed across the blades, which slice it into thin, even pieces. Mandolines are useful for creating uniform slices of fruits and vegetables for salads, sandwiches, and other dishes.

What is a herb stripper?

A herb stripper is a small tool used to remove the leaves from the stems of herbs like thyme, rosemary, and oregano. It typically consists of a small plastic or metal tool with several holes of different sizes. The stem is inserted into the appropriate hole and pulled through, which removes the leaves from the stem. Herb strippers are useful for saving time and reducing waste when preparing herbs for salads, soups, and other dishes.

What is a spiralizer?

A spiralizer is a tool used to create long, thin ribbons or noodles from vegetables like zucchini, carrots, and sweet potatoes. It typically consists of a hand-cranked device with a blade that cuts the vegetables into spirals as they are turned. Spiralizers are useful for creating low-carb alternatives to pasta dishes, as well as for adding visual interest to salads and other dishes.

What is the best material for salad tools?

The best material for salad tools depends on the specific tool and its intended use. Stainless steel is a popular choice for tools like vegetable peelers and tongs, as it is durable and easy to clean. Plastic is a common material for salad spinners and mixing bowls, as it is lightweight and affordable. Wood is a good choice for tools like salad servers and cutting boards, as it is gentle on delicate greens and won't scratch non-stick surfaces. Ultimately, the best material for a salad tool depends on your personal preferences and needs.
