Can this be used to slice zucchini in the noodle style for lasagna?

After using this mandolin on cucumbers and onions, I think you would get a really thin ribbon of zucchini. I believe it would cut the zucchini just fine, but it wouldn't be very thick.

I see no reason why not. The special cutting blade is so very sharp. Making long flat slices of a zucchini should be a breeze.BTW after seeing my Mandoline Slicer my sister-in-law is ordering one. Wait till you see the free bonus paring knife. Wow.

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'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!!!

The pasta roller does the lasagna type noodles , the other roller cuts the dough in maybe 1/4 inch strips. or less. I have only used it for making crackers so far, but it does a wonderful job on those.. just thin enough to be crispy!.If the fettuccine is a bit wider than spaghetti -- then yes, this does cut that size too. I may actually do that this weekend.

The machine is just wide enough to do lasagna noodles. If you tried it for pies, you would have to do 2-3 lengths of pie dough, and then layer them.

This machine will cut widths of 1/4 inch or 1/16 inch. Also can make wide noodles like used for lasagna. The thickness can be approx. 1/8 inch to almost paper thin.

I am not sure, but the blade cuts through the center of the bagle and it cannot be adjusted for slicing. The blade is extremely sharp, so I would not be inclined to try it.

Sorry I haven't tried this - sounds like you have an interesting recipe. I think the shred blade would come pretty close.

I've only used a few times for zucchini. I think a food processor would chop it more. I think of a mandolin for slices. This spiralizer give you noodles, long noodles. Really cool. Kind of vague, hope this helps.

I would say no. I tried cutting an apple in half and slicing it. The results were not satisfactory. The slices are very thin. The slicer is the least effective of the pieces in this set. I use the graters and the julienne all the time, but almost never use the slicer.

no, I use my food processor for cabbage these things are too small for that. The design is that you place the food under the handle and run it over the blade. using this would not be an efficient way to cut cabbage

Yes, I just used this to grate parmesean reggio cheese and it busted the plastic part that holds up the grating blade. The entire unit is ruined as I am afraid to use it to chop or shred as the plastic housing is now fractured and broken off.

I have used it several times to make zucchini lasagna. This device works better than others I had at 3 times the price. The rubber handle provides a firm grip to avoid accidental slips. The slices come out beautifully and with exactly the same thickness.

It us much easier than a mandolin for making zucchini pasta...takes less time and less bloody knuckles too. We use it 3 or 4 times a week for 4 zucchini at a time.

There are 3 julienne blades. I find that the middle sized one is the best for making zuchinni noodles. The smallest one is way too fine. The standard slicing blade is attached to the mechanism. If you are slicing, then you don't need to add the julienne part. Once you get the hang of it, it works great. It is super sharp and even if you are careful, you will probably cut yourself once; I did and I was super careful. Great product for the price.

Yes, we always use it to make ravioli. It works perfectly. Just make sure to moisten the edges before crimping.
