Mandolins & pond
A mandolin is a good tool for slicing your vegetables quickly and smoothly. The sharp knives in the mandolin give you a uniform and nice result, unlike if you use a grater that has a tendency to make the vegetables fringed at the edges. The mandolin is especially good to use for Asian cuisine that uses a lot of vegetables. When creating Thai dishes or Vietnamese spring rolls, you need to shred the vegetables, and with a mandolin iron, you do not have to chop for several hours. In addition, mandolin iron is good for cutting cucumbers for cucumber salad, or potatoes for gratins or french fries. It is only the imagination that sets the limits.
