Can you Julienne vegetables with this device?

No...only for slicing....by the time you cut something into such a thin wedge and then run it through the blade for julienne size slices...you may as well julienne by hand...also, it would be very dangerous on this slicing machine...you do not want to get your finger close to the blade...not at all! Rosle does make a julienne slicer, but I do not have it and some reviews are not that great so I doubt I will get it. The food processor does the best for mass julienne slicing...if you are just doing a little...I slice by hand...or another thought...you may find one of the Oxo graters that has multiple slicing choices that does have a julienne...

You would have to make your own cuts first, while veg was in the holder then slice

It will adjust for thinness/thickness for slicing. I think you would need a different tool that has attachments in order to julienne something. Hope that helps.

I'm not sure. It is a wonderful device, but I've always used it to slice cucumbers, carrots, onions etc. I don't see why you couldn't slice along the length of the vegetable and slice that way...although you might have to cut into thinner pieces afterward. I love this item, but it is very sharp, and you must use the safety handle!!!

It produces slices of varying thickness of any firm vegetable (it slices like a mandolin), but it doesn't have a Julienne feature.

In short no. This item is great for slicing but does not have and interchangeable julienne blade.

Unfortunately, this model cannot give you a true julienne cut. You would need to use a mandolin with the little tines that come up, a small food processor with a julienne blade. For a cheaper option, you can buy a julienne peeler which runs under $10, depending where you buy it. It looks like a potato peeler, but the blade is designed for the julienne cut. I hope this helps.

yes you can there are even recipes in the booklet! You can also steam vegetables in it is a steamer basket. I love mine.

Hello Susano, I don't know if this will work for longer julienne veggies, but I do make nice long julienne "french fried" potatoes using this slicer. Do you have a specific purpose ie recipe for the longer julienne zucchini? Please let me know what that is, and I will try it for you before you purchase this slicer. You can contact me here, or at my email joyrose94@yahoo.comThank youVal

Of course it will. Use it in the slicing (or wavy slicer) position and you can slice raw sweet potatoes just fine. They're a little bit too hard to use the julienne disc, however.

I usually do firmer vegetables, like root vegetables, but have used it on yellow squash and zucchini and it worked well. It's pretty sharp.

I'm not sure what you mean by a V-slicer and I don't think I've used one so I can't say. The julienne blades don't work well with harder vegetables. It's a shame because that's what we really wanted it for but...oh, well. I know others have said that it does work well so perhaps it is our inexperience with it. It's our first. We will try again and let you know!

I can't compare to a V-slicer as it has been years since I have used one, but I can say that the julienne blades were just fine for harder vegetables. The challenge is, and seems to be the recurring theme with any advice that I give about this product, that the lack of a stand makes it very hard to put your weight against the device. With harder vegetables where it takes a little more elbow grease, the blades are sharp and clean but you are often pulling your vegetable through the slicer as opposed to pushing. That can become somewhat annoying. But I have enjoyed the machine for a variety of uses and think that the julienne blades work nicely. I am not a chef though, so I don't know how precise your needs are.

It is a strip slicer so cuts things into julienne strips, so with an onion it will act more like a grater than a slicer. I use it to grate zucchini and onions for my quinoa turkey meatballs recipe. And to julienne vegetables like carrots, zucchini, beets, cucumber, for salads etc

This is still new for me but so far I've used it to peel potatoes, carrots, squash and cucumbers. So far only julienned potatoes. Works great!

I haven't tried it. I mainly use carrots zucchini and potatoes. I love zucchini pasta. I've seen others that are bulky do a little better job but I just don't have space for them. I also have a mandolin which I use for cabbage.

No, I dont believe it would work for that. I use it to cut fondant for cakes and it works wonderful. I dont believe that you would have any luck trying to use it on vegetables.

you can definitely 'julienne' potatoes with this item; can cut many 'styles'

I never tried vegetables here, but there is a microwave vegetable steamer on amazon that works just fine.

While I have not used it for this purpose a rice steamer came inside the unit. The instruction manual also talked about steaming vegetables in this unit.

I don't believe that this came with a grater. You could julienne or chop the potatoes very fine, but that's about it.

Unfortunately, there is no attachment for a julienne cut. But, if you are daring, you can pass it through twice to get that result.
