Intelligent Tools with Peachy Deegan and Kuhn Rikon: Quick Slice Julienne Mandoline Recommended By Whom You Know. Euro-Style Cooking is so Chez Peachy!
Sometimes you want your slices a certain way and can't get them that way if you are Chef Peachy. The Chef Peachy column is pretty tiny because Peachy is not in fact a chef. But she does cook because she eats! And sometimes her slices don't look as pretty as her makeup. So, Peachy Deegan found the fabulous Quick Slice Julienne Mandoline by Kuhn Rikon. They make such intelligent tools for the kitchen. This mandoline creates perfectly uniform 1/8-inch matchstick slices that are precise and beautiful, and you will not cut your fingers off in the process! We like this for shoestring potatoes and grating cheese.
