About this deal
Set the mandoline on a flat surface. While a mandoline is often safer to use than a knife, it is still extremely sharp and can be dangerous if you don’t use it properly. Make sure to set the tool on a flat, even surface, so it doesn’t move around as you’re julienning the carrots.

Absolute Kaufempfehlung für jeden ambitionierten Koch. Ob als Hobby-, Enthusiast-, Semi- oder Profi-Koch. Chop the carrot in half. A whole carrot is usually too cumbersome to julienne, so it helps to cut your carrots into smaller pieces. Use a sharp chef’s knife to slice the carrot in half horizontally.If your carrot keeps moving as you're trying to cut, you may want to slice a small piece off on one side to create a flat surface to steady it.
Microplane Gourmet Series Julienne Vegetable Grater, Handheld
A Gourmet paddle grater from Microplane with sharp blades for creating fine julienne strips from carrots, courgettes, beetroot, cucumbers and radishes. Add julienne strips to salads and coleslaws or as a decorative touch to dishes. This thing is razor SHARP, so it makes grating much easier than an old fashioned type grater because you don’t have to use as much force. I don’t have the strength I used to have, so I’m thankful for this. You might want to use a cut proof glove for grating, or at least pay very close attention, especially if you’re accustomed using an older style grater. I’ve shredded sharp cheddar cheeses, softer Muenster and Colby cheeses, and it does an excellent job at creating long shreds. Softer cheeses can benefit from a few minutes in the freezer before shredding, but I’ve never had any issues. Cut each carrot piece into four. Place the carrot pieces with the cut side facing down to steady them. Slice each piece into four equal pieces with your knife.If a carrot is particularly long, you may want to cut it into three or four pieces. You’ll have the easiest time julienning pieces that are approximately 3- to 4-inches (8 to 10 cm) long or smaller.
