Could you use it for spinning boiled zucchini?

This is difficult to answer without knowing how crunchy or mushy you cook vegetables. I would not recommend you use this to strain any hot cooked items. Spinners are normally used for uncooked vegetable and fruits, including berries that are still firm. If you currently own this item and are intent on using it with cooked items, I recommend you experiment with very small batches. Remember that the baskets are usually plastic and hot items might damage or melt the basket. I hope this helps. Good Luck.

I haven't tried that, but I think if you went at a slower speed than I do for greens the zucchini would hold up well.

You probably could. I'd use some cooking spray on it first. It was a gift to my son and he hasn't tried it yet.

It would peel the zucchini for you. You can loosen the nut and move the corer so that it doesn't core or slice.

I don't see why not. I haven't needed to do this but it would work just fine, just make sure it is oiled, as the lid is constantly getting all the steam from cooking and doesn't have much of the oil left from when you originally seasoned the pot. Would be great to use for hot cakes or tortillas. Might have a little trouble with bacon grease running off the sides though, cause a fire, if you try this this try it outside first so you don't burn the house down:)

No. It needs to be on a very hot surface like a wood stove. It will not start spinning until the entire surface if the stove gets very hot

I dont see why not. If it boils dry a lot you might loose that nice shiny inside but it probably wont hurt anything. Cast iron is hard to damage.

I don't think it is a good use for this, I find a traditional peeler easier to use for potatoes and carrots. I use it to make zucchini spaghetti and its perfect for that.

I haven't tried it on Zucchini yet but yes the carrots came out nice and long. I would not cut the top of the carrot until I use it (just to have some way to hold them) unless their tips are better. I haven't read their tips yet, but again despite all that the carrots came out fine.

Have used for zucchini only so far. A friend used it on butternut squash too.

Sure! You can use it for steaming, boiling or deep frying. We used it last night for steaming veggies, seafood, and sausage. My dad uses his to deep fry turkey.

I would totally believe you could. You boil water as hard as you can when you are doing canning. It's plenty deep which makes it perfect for steaming

I'm sure UberChef answered your concern. So far, I've used it for zucchini and cucumber and it works great!

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 use it only for chopping vegetables. I would avoid it for nuts as the body is plastic...

No. Works great on zucchini etc. have used on all kinds of veggies and it works great. So glad we bought it

From what I can tell, I doubt it. I think you would need a mandolin to slice the zucchini.

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.
