SPIRALIZER ATTACHMENT BLADE CHART
NOTE: Cut the ends off food items to ensure that the food will properly fit on the Spiralizer, and to create flat surfaces for best spiralizing, slicing, and coring results. Food should be 3.8 – 9.5 cm in diameter, and no longer than 14 cm. This step also ensures proper placement onto the Fruit and Vegetable Skewer. When beginning to cut, start at speed 1, then adjust to the recommended speed for your Blade listed in the chart below.
