Will they slice easily for German potato salad?

They can be sliced, however, "easy" is a term that depends on one's point of view. I will say this; the potatoes are fairly firm, so you will need a reasonably sharp knife to slice them.

Yes, they are fully cooked and easy to slice. I dice mine for American Potato Salad.

Yes! I've chopped up a potato and sprayed the slices with olive oil cooking spray and put them on top of foil. It worked nicely!

They work really well because their edges are sharp. However, I do suggest cutting the hard vegetables into a thickness that is no greater than 1/4 inch.

Yeah, slices very thin. We sliced potatoes to around a 1/16" slices and fried them. Worked great I thought

The blade material is pretty heavy duty...not thick but robust... I dont see them going dull too soon just cutting potatoes...but just in case you can buy extra cutting blades of different sizes. hope this helps... I really like my cutter

Yes, it will, but first, you need to slice them, about a quarter of an inch thick.

Absolutely. And taste better. I have used my baby Q to do slices as well as a knife. Run potatoes through the slicer. Lightly blot. Spray a dinner plate ligthlywith Pam. Lightly spray slices with Pam...both sides. Place slices on plate and microwave. Not on the high setting however. Microwaves vary and you will need to experiment on length of temps and cooking time for your appliance. Add seasonings and enjoy. Ive been doing this for years when I have a craving for potato chips.

The "disk" cutter blade can be set for slices or shredding. So, yes, you can slice potatoes for scalloped potatoes, but you would probably have to trim the potato to fit down the slot that feeds the slicer blade. A whole potato would not fit.

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.

i didn't try to use it on fresh potato, but it works with cooked one. just make slices then press with cutter to have cubes. it is very helpful to make salad.

I'm not sure because I haven't tried it. However, the biggest problem with slicing potatoes isn't the hardness of the potato but the diameter.

It has a pulse and run speed, a disk blade that slices on one side and grates on the other and a chopper blade. I haven't tried the slicer blade with potatoes but where you feed the food in is rather small and a potato would likely have to be quartered before it could be fed into the food processor. I don't think it would be good for that purpose.

I'm sure you could with a smaller potato. Otherwise you could try a mandolin :)

I chop raw potatoes that are about 1/4 inch thick so I would think so if the carrot were sliced in half lengthwise first though I have not tried.

The blade is very thin and sharp so its a great thin slicer. Potatos and peeled squash yes but anything with tough skin should be cut with a heavier knife.

I don't think it would work because the slices need to be potato chip thin, but maybe someone would be willing to experiment.
