[Dagstag v 2.0]

I shred my sprouts with a salad shooter. I think they were popular in the 90s, but still around.  I also use that to slice carrots.

Holy moly, I remember those things! Salad shooterrrrrr! I always wanted one. They were just like salad guns.

I actually find it very useful. I slice my sprouts, carrots, radishes, etc. It also grates.  I am on my second one. When the first one broke, I thought I would never find a new one anymore, but Cuisinart makes one.

I looked it up. This is the one I have, but I did not pay that much for it. I seem to remember it was on sale for around $40.00.

I looked at that, and there was a link to a similar product:

I think it's the same maker of salad shooter! I have a credit from Amazon and am tempted to buy one or the other.

The presto is the one I had before the cuisinart. It was great. I would have bought the same one again, had it still been available when I needed the replacement. I also shred my cauliflower in mine. (Use a plastic bag to catch the shredded stuff, otherwise it is all over the counter.) I never put onion or red/green peppers in it: those are too wet. But for my purposes it is great.  The cuisinart has a bigger feed, which I prefer. I put everything in the dishwasher after use, except the base. If I need grated cheese, I simply buy it grated, so I have never done that.

I have a few recipes that call for special types of cheese that are shredded, like gouda or munster.  I make this delicious Syrian (Sephardic) artichoke and cheese casserole that requires white cheeses like that for best flavor.  Have I ever shared it here?  It's super tasty.

Tap, tap, tap...

I have never purchase pre-grated cheese.  I didn't realize grating cheese was one of those modern kitchen burdens, like peeling carrots...

It's no big deal. But, sometimes I do. Like last night I made dinner and it wasn't ready until 9:30. It was just a busy evening. So, sometimes making a stirfry with pre-cut veg, or burritos with pre-shredded cheese is the difference between eating in or eating out.

I frequently don't peel carrots. The outer layer is the best-tasting part to me. Depends on the dish.
