I made some zucchini noodles for sausage alfredo last night... fantastic. I started off securing it to my counter with the suction bottom. Flipped a switch and it sat there like it was screwed into the wood. I gave the manual a quick once over, because RTFM. Doing that told me exactly which blade to use - they're all labeled with two letters on top that correspond with the notes in the manual, which gives a description of which one to use depending on your goal. I made sure I had a cleany zucchini, because nobody likes them dirty, and then skewered it in place. Spin it to win it. I didn't even need to use both hands, but sometimes you need that extra grip, especially when you're dealing with a girthy zucchini. After, I was left with 12 foot long noodles (size does matter,) a tiny zucchini disc, and a... heh... wiggly core. On a side note, you may want to cut whatever you're spiralizing in half - if it's long. That would probably make the noodles are a little easier to manage. I sauteed 'em up, sauced 'em, and served 'em. Delicious - my wife agreed. The zoodles were 'al dente,' but I think they would have been better if I would have just poured the hot alfredo over raw noodles. Yeah, a little crunchier, but I think the flavor and texture would have been better. Maybe it's just my zoodling (zoodle cooking) technique, but I digress... Cleaning up was a snap. I took the scrub brush, soaped it up, and gave it a once over, washed it off, and set it to dry. I have yet to try it in the dishwasher, though the manual says it's safe. So far, no staining or other "grossness." I can't wait to see what else I can spiralize. I bought a bunch of stuff I've never even given a second glance - vegetables! Specifically rutabagas, beets, cucumbers. (The only good cucumber is a pickled one, I say.) Whatever. I'm gonna spiralize it all. I'll spiralize veggies, I'll spiralize fruit.. I'll spiralize the world! I might even spiralize my friends if they're lucky. I'll update this review as time goes by and I get to really put this proverbial puppy through its paces.
