1 Choose your fruit and vegetables carefully
• Select them:
- straight, with firm flesh
- a maximum length of 10cm
- a diameter between 3cm and 6cm
• You can spiralize a whole range of fruit and vegetables
aside from the classic carrots and courgettes: cucumbers,
beetroots, parsnips, squashes, potatoes, sweet potatoes,
turnips, daikon radishes (mooli), apples and pears.
Let your creative spirit - and your taste buds - be your guide!
• Soft-fleshed fruit and vegetables such as tomatoes and kiwifruit
are not recommended.
2 Be precise!
• When topping and tailing your fruit and vegetables, cut them as
straight as possible.
• If your fruit and vegetables are too large to fit in the feed tube,
trim them to fit.
• Always securely attach the pusher to the centre of your fruit and
vegetables. The spirals will be longer and more attractive.
3 Know your Spiral Expert!
• Push the vegetable firmly on the pusher.
• Put the vegetable into the feed tube. Switch on your Magimix.
If the vegetable is too heavy, place it in the feed tube, on the
center of the cone, then attach it firmly to the pusher.
• Guide your vegetable down the feed tube by pushing firmly on
the top of the pusher. You will need to press down far harder for
a carrot than for a cucumber.
• In addition to the perfect spirals, you will also find:
1 - the remains of the vegetable attached to the pusher
2 - the spiralized core of the vegetable in the bowl.
