Can this make julienne strips?

No, the largest slicer did a good job slicing apples, everything else I tried on the other blades was a failure. My mandolin does a great job making julienne strips.

No! You need a mandolin for that. Or better yet, get a good sharp chef's knife, learn how to keep it sharp and watch a YouTube video or two. It's pretty easy.

Sorry, no. The shredder cone makes nice long strips of asiago or parmesan, and carrots or zucchini, but these are not really julienne. KitchenAid did have a Food Processor for the stand mixer that has a julienne blade and works well for juliernne strips (and better than the cone slicer for potato gratin because slices are flat). Otherwise, the mandoline is fastest.

In a word, yes. Puree tutorial at the following link, if you need it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6PH6KZ83Lw

Unfortunately, this model cannot give you a true julienne cut. You would need to use a mandolin with the little tines that come up, a small food processor with a julienne blade. For a cheaper option, you can buy a julienne peeler which runs under $10, depending where you buy it. It looks like a potato peeler, but the blade is designed for the julienne cut. I hope this helps.

Yes, You can make the strips almost as long as the vegetable itself. Either hold the vegetable in your hand to slice it or place flat on your cutting board. Blades are sharp so go slowly as the vegetable gets thinner from slicing!

Of course it will. Use it in the slicing (or wavy slicer) position and you can slice raw sweet potatoes just fine. They're a little bit too hard to use the julienne disc, however.

I see no reason why not. The special cutting blade is so very sharp. Making long flat slices of a zucchini should be a breeze.BTW after seeing my Mandoline Slicer my sister-in-law is ordering one. Wait till you see the free bonus paring knife. Wow.

Not necessarily...you can but you risk melting the glue strip. It's best to wait and use heat to remove them.

The strips can be cut to whatever length you need them to be as long as you leave enough of they strip so they overlap. As far as width, they can be trimmed but that sort of defeats the purpose of using them to help build a layer cake.

I would not recommend that!! Do what Pinkney said. Buy a pack for less than 5 dollars. If you are trying to save money on strips, then use them fully and cut the unused strips to use them later.

I would think that's very unlikely. However, why would you want to? The strips for this machine cost half or less than the other machine. It gives good readings at half the cost, that's the point, right?

Sorry I haven't tried this - sounds like you have an interesting recipe. I think the shred blade would come pretty close.

I would say no. Strip fits into a channel. I think a small amount of clear silicon would work the best

Yes. One side is a traditional peeling blade. The other side makes julienne. Both work perfectly.

It's not meant to be used with strips. I could imagine it wouldn't work with strips. When dried it gets hard and pulls off fairl you can use your Gigi warmer and I'm not sure about facial hair but I have a friend who pretty much uses it all over (she just doesn't have facial hair)

You still won't need strips- it sticks together really well. I really don't think strips would work with the consistency of this product but I have not tried it.

I haven't tried doing that, but it should work. The Velcro connection is the whole length of the strips.

I cannot answer definitely, but I also wanted this and could not find any way to do it. Although you can add up to six strips per adapter, I could find no one that sold only the strips. I had to order 3 sets and do some maneuvering to get mine in order. Hope you can do the same.
