Need to buy a mandoline, need to buy a mandoline. NEED TO BUY A MANDOLINE!!
Julienning (is that a word?) my third mango and I want to fucking die, so annoyingly slippery. I mean, I don't actually mind having to julienne things because it's pretty simple, but when it's multiple things that are a bit cumbersome to grip it's a huge pain.
Make sure to buy one with a guard, and use it religiously. Those things are lethally sharp.
Oh I come from a hospo background, I have seen first hand the carnage they can do.
Or half hand.
Food processor with the slicing disc?
Let me know when you find a good one, I've been procrastinating on buying one for years now and I'm sure I'd be doing more stir fries if I just bought one already.
Note to self, inform kitten of mandoline purchase
