Using the principle of a pencil sharpener, the SPIRELLI 2.0 spiral slicer transforms carrots, radishes, cucumbers and other firm vegetables into appetizing endless spirals at a flick of the wrist - for use in vegetarian stir-fries, healthy raw salads or as an appetizing garnish for prompt consumption. The Japanese special steel blades produce spirals of two different widths. Safe to use: the attachable finger guard with its three stainless steel pins not only guarantees a safe hold from the start but also - as you can push it well in - ensures the veg is used efficiently. And after use - into the dishwasher it goes. A kitchen aid which makes an ideal gift to vegetable fans. Practical, smart.
