Does it make veggies mushy or tender (the only way I like veggies)?

You are steaming the vegetables in the lekue and thus they are tender and crisp...it is of course dependent on cooking time...we love vegetables cooked in the lekue

The Lekue does veggies any way you like them. My model has a red tray into which I pour olive oil and water. The steaming of vegetables depends on how long you microwave them. I think it takes some experimentation ~ depending on the power of your microwave

Actually, if you toss the pasta in the sauce, oil or dressing while it is still warm it says fairly soft. Especially if you add oil to boil water then again once rinsed. Some brands work better than others white rice will be softer than brown. Salad dressings work great!

what you mean for harder veggies, I always do frozen carrots and broccoli and spinach and celery, frozen fruits, so far all good, if you do strawberries for example you wont feel the seeds. Hope to help you with my answer. And if it is of further help all is done in seconds. Little noisy because of the 2 hp but if you put a towel on the table it helps.

Yes, I use one side for pungent veggies like onions and garlic and the other for regular veggies.

It tastes like ice cream...think "creamsicle" and is very thick with a texture like yogurt. My doctor said I can mix this in water or smoothies, so if you use it for a salad you may want to thin this out.

Don't Know. I know if you keep chopping onions with it they get really mushy!! I really just use it to dice onions and garlic for my tomato sauce. I have to be careful that I don't turn the handle too many times.

I don't know. Depends on the vegetable I would say. I haven't used it very much.

I haven't tried it with veggies but I suspect anything you can lay flat in the parchment pkg will do fine. Just be careful with the timing.

This is a neutral tasting pasta. I've used it with Japanese, Chinese, Mexican and Italian sauces. I've used it in sorts of cold veggie salads. If you've ever had mung bean sprouts (common in Chinese food) you know how neutral the flavor is.

I have only used it with traditional style. What I do is keep the meat frozen a little so it will slice thin.

For me it's ok when mixed with most other things. I like Chocolate Whey and maybe some skim milk to taste. I've also mixed it with Cytomax. Personal taste, just mix it with something you like and it's fine. I'm on my third large container and don't notice the taste any more. It's a lot better than trying to eat the large amount of veggies you are supposed to eat every day.

I have never picked up on a vegetable taste with this stuff. It is a little chalky, but that comes from it not having all the extra fat in it.

I have only used the cutter for meat & cheese...But, you have a good idea...If the veg was firm I don't see a problem...but if soft & mushy I don't think it will work for ya...

for me leafy veggies come out really dry Fruit and veggies like cucumbers, not so much. That being said. I love mine. Just make sure to cut stuff up first

I haven't tried veggies. However, I think that based on the way it handles meats that is should do fine with onions, potatoes, celery, beets, etc. Carrots may be a little too hard and tomatoes could be messy.

I've used it for all types of potatoes and sweet potatoes and squash and cucumbers. so far no problems - although overly ripe (soft) ones can mush a little. I am happy with mine.

I think I understand you question. The purple thing that you see in the picture slides back and forth and hold the veggie being sliced. Do be careful the blades are very sharp but it is a great product for the price.
