spiralizers

Noodle-making kitchen tools

Spiralizers are kitchen tools that cut vegetables into long, spiral strands resembling noodles.

The device typically works by rotating produce against a blade, producing "zoodles" from zucchini or similar shapes from carrots, potatoes, and other firm vegetables: I bought a spiralizer for low-carb pasta nights.

Popular with those avoiding wheat or seeking more vegetables in their diet.
