{"product_id":"mandoline-slicer-compact-12-settings","title":"Gramercy Mandoline LITE Compact Slicer","description":"\u003cp\u003eA compact stainless steel mandoline that cuts straight slices and julienne, sized for cooks who want even cuts without a full-size frame taking over the drawer. Twelve settings on one rotating dial, no loose blades to swap. Cut-resistant gloves, a blade guard and a food holder are in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it's made of\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGramercy by Gütewerk. Stainless steel frame and cutting deck, with a 4CR15 blade: a steel hard enough to hold an edge and tough enough not to chip. At 644 g it is the lightest of the three Gramercy mandolines, which makes it easier to lift and store. Non-slip feet do the work a heavier frame would otherwise do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow it's used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the side dial to choose your cut: straight slices from paper-thin to 9 mm, or julienne at 4.5 and 9 mm. The rotating blade cylinder changes the setting without your hands going near the edge. Thin for crisps and gratin, thicker for roasting vegetables, julienne for matchstick carrot, courgette and cabbage. The food holder grips the last of a vegetable so you are not finishing the job by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy we discuss safety before results\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mandoline is the sharpest tool in most kitchens, and most injuries happen during cleaning rather than slicing. Cut-resistant gloves are in the box as part of the product, not as an upsell. Wear them on both hands, including at the sink. Fit the blade guard before it goes in a drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop-rack dishwasher safe, and the cleaning brush is included because starch lodges in the blade slots. For the longest edge life, wash by hand and dry immediately. The legs fold flat so it lies down in a drawer rather than standing in a cupboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eNot suitable for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaffle and ridged cuts.
