Presto 02910 SaladShooter Electric Slicer/Shredder Reviews
(1) We laughed and laughed when we received this “as seen on TV” slicing and, well, grating “miracle product” as a gift. Who would actually use such a crazy thing? Well, it turns out that we would, frequently. It may not dice, but it does slice beautifully – thin and uniform, as well as grating everything from cheese to potatoes to carrots to … you name it. We use it almost daily. If you’re a vegetable eater or a cheese lover, you won’t know how you lived without it. Easy to assemble and disassemble, and it’s dishwasher safe, although you do have to position the parts correctly to maximize water flow and cleaning. You can do a fine or a coarse grate, a straight or a wavy slice. You can even get an ice shaver for making snow cones. It does have some limitations. While it grates all kinds of cheeses (softer cheeses work best when chilled), it can’t slice cheese at all. Nor does it slice onions, celery or other “stringy” vegetables well. It will grate them, though. It slices cucumbers, carrots, summer squash and similar vegetables beautifully, but the chute is too narrow to slice most cukes or zukes whole — you’ll have to split them lengthwise.
(2) Years and years ago, someone gave my mother a salad shooter. She was so impressed – and Mother knew everything “kitchen” – she bought me one. I don’t even know how many years I had it, but she has been gone for 6 years, and it was long before that. Well, last week, it was grating some potatoes for me, and it just gave up the ghost. For some reason, I’d never considered that that could happen! My beloved salad shooter was no more. Well, guess what! I came right to my computer and ordered another one, which, thank goodness, came today.
Maybe I should stock up in case they stop making them! How does anyone cook without a salad shooter?
