Brieftons Spiral Slicer Review + Giveaway

Sharing is caring!

Don’t let boring meals spiral out of control. Try the Brieftons Spiral Slicer and add some fun to your cooking routine!

 

Mine didn’t look that pretty coming out.  I still need more practice with this awesome spiral slicer.  Why, yes, you’re right!  I have reviewed a spiral slicer recently.  I’m still looking for the perfect one for Dad.  This Brieftons Spiral Slicer is pretty darn close to perfect!!  I gotta say…

 

 

And there is!  It comes with the slicer and this handy cleaning brush.  Trust me when I say you will need and use the cleaning brush often.  I did in the time it took me to slice up this radish and this cucumber.

 

There’s a reason they say and firm flesh fruit or vegetable. 

 

The cucumber was bit cumbersome to try to spiral slice, but I stuck with it and produce some interesting results.

 

 

This is what the cucumber looked like I was finished.  It was a bit slippery and difficult to slice, but that’s not to the fault of the product.  I was just determined to make this amazing daikon radish and cucumber slaw for our Asian crab cakes.  I did.  And it was tasty!

 

 

And this is the radish sliced up and ready to go.  Looks much better doesn’t it?

 

There’s not so much of a learning as there is a learning curve.  LOL  It’s not difficult to operate, but there’s a pressure and strength element that goes into using these types of slicers.

 

Now, here’s what I loved:

• The color!  It’s BRIGHT yellow.  Just looks cool.
• The angle on the brush handle.  It can easily prevent injury when cleaning out the center of the slicer.
• The instruction book!
• The fact that Brieftons has lots of recipes on their website!
• There are two sizes for your slicing needs.

 

What I didn’t like?

• That my arms feel like spaghetti after using this.  It takes more upper body strength than I possess.  Don’t judge.
• I would like a larger size slice.  But that’s the complaint I have with both the Brieftons and that other slicer.

 

Other than that, they’re perfect for the enthusiast who doesn’t have storage space for a larger spiral slicer.  It fits in a drawer and works perfectly!!  If you find yourself make more and more veggie based noodles then you might want to consider a more professional one.

 

I’m not that person.  What I DO love about spiral slicers is the simple fact that I can quickly process a zucchini or beet and then coarsely chop those “noodles” and have something larger than a shred with more texture and flavor.  Like I did with some zucchini enchiladas I made recently.

 

Either way you slice it (pun intended) the Brieftons Spiral Slicer is perfect for me!  It’s small and fits in our one butt kitchen and it’s a new gadget I don’t have to argue to get to keep!  Not that I really DO have to argue, but if I bring one more appliance into the apartment, I’m sure I’d get an eye roll and a head shake for sure!  Then I’d have to defend my reasoning behind purchasing it and well, it just wouldn’t be pretty.

 

So, do yourself and your tiny kitchen cabinets a favor and purchase this handy little spiral slicer.  Cause it’s AKHA approved!
