![]() You end up wasting a fair amount of the vegetable and have to either hand cut it, bin it or find some other use for it. I’ve tried forks to twist the zucchini or to hold it still while twisting the actual spiralizer, but it just doesn’t work very well near the base of the vegetable. The light green, hour glass looking Twisting Zoodle Maker, pictured on the top right actually works quite well but it can be a little difficult to twist when you get down near the end of the vegetable. It was quite expensive to buy and mine ultimately ended up in the bin. All you end up with is a big mess and a lot of wasted vegetables. The dark green Twisting Spiraliser on the bottom left was absolutely useless, as the design used to grip the vegetables doesn’t actually work. I have struggled to find one of these gadgets that works really well. Both of these are quick and easy to clean up and take up no space in the cupboard. The Hand Held Spiral Cutter creates a large, spiral, wide ribboned zoodle. The Julienne Peeler creates long straight zoodles. The Julienne Peeler actually comes in different widths as well which can be really handy. I purchased both of these for around $5 and they are money well spent. They take up no space and if you are only cooking for one or 2, or if space is an issue, then these could be ideal for you. These small gadgets are fantastic for creating zucchini noodles or ribbons. Hand Held Cutters- Julienne Peeler or Hand Held Spiral Cutter A zoodle dish can be as simple as tossing some homemade or store brought pesto through your zoodles and serving with some grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of pine-nuts ,through to slightly more complex dishes such as Low Carb Zoodle Pad Thai and Asian Zoodle Beef Salad SO HOW DO YOU MAKE ZOODLES? Zoodles can be used in salads, as a pasta substitute with any of your favorite pasta dishes, as a noodle replacement, and it can also be a fancy way to serve zucchini as a side dish or to create fritters and low carb hash browns. They are then often referred to as Spiralised Recipes. They also hold up on their own as salads and other dishes. Depending on how you create your zoodles, they can be long and straight or they can be much more spirally be referred to as a spiralized dish. If you are new to low carb eating then you might not be familiar with Zoodles, which are long thin lengths of zucchini that mimic spaghetti or noodles. ![]() It’s a very versatile vegetable and can be used in everything from cakes through to pasta dishes.
