Will this cut julienne strips out of apples and cheese?

Yes, but the cheese should be cold and preferably a harder cheese. The apples turn out perfectly!

I really like this slicer, BUT, I would recommend a spiral slicer for the really long zucchini "noodles" to substitute for spaghetti. I think this slicer is a good choice for nice thin "julienne" type of strips. It works very well on dense vegetables like carrots, and my spiral will not handle carrots. NEVER use this slicer without the guard. It is very sharp and you will bleed a lot (been there done that).

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

As long as the apple is not bigger than the inner circle of the cutter, yes it will slice through. I have had no issues with this.

In a word YES. I used it the other day to make apple sauce and it cut the apples perfectly fine.

Hi! I have not tried it on cheesecake, so I did a little testing for you. I cut quiche and it works great. And I cut a slice of cheese from a cheese block. Worked great! I would say it would work well with cheesecake if it cuts those other food items. My son loves his knives.

I havent tried potatoes or cheese but Ive used it on many apples and zucchinis and it cuts quickly and easily! I would think it would be the same with potates.

As long as you skewer it where the core is it will slice and core it just fine. As far as peeling oddly shaped apples, it will peel the roundest part the best. It doesn't handle dips very well. But I would still recommend it to slice and core it. It works way better than the push down one where half the time your knuckles hit the counter.

I made jerky when I purchased the unit and it sliced right through the meat no problem. I would think it would do the same with cheese.

it might, but it's not designed for that.......more for cheese.....things that stick to the knife when cut. You need more of a Santoku type knife for cutting hard veggies

Yes, it will cut squash very thin, perhaps not spaghetti thin, but close. No it does not grate cheese.

No. This slicer creates medium sized, julienne "strips". It does not create flat slices. I use it to julienne carrots, broccoli, radishes and other veggies for salads and sandwitches. (The julienne strips this slicer creates are like grated vegetables, but the grated pieces are a lot fatter and longer.)

Yes it will slice frozen meat or cheese. Cheese is the real test as it is so dense.

absolutely! I've made apple sauce and apple butter, tomato sauce. it even does peaches. it will get all of the juice out and a lot of the pulp. My only recommendation is to flash boil them first, put them in ice water. cut them in quarters and throw them in the mill. you will be amazed.

I do not think it will work....surely you can just use a knife. It works so well for harder fruit and veg....celeriac or beetroot are a dream once grated with this 'machine'

I haven't tried that, but I don't see why not. I just used it to cut up deli sliced turkey into strips for my grand kids. Love it for parsley and rosemary and thyme. Want to try all kinds of things with it. Best gadget ever!!!!

Julienne is a type of disc which will cut the food item into long thin strips, similar to matchsticks.
