Notes

  • * there are several methods to make vegetable "noodles". If you have a spiralizer -- use it. A mandoline works well as well as a peeler with thin vertical blades built into the head. You can also use a very sharp knife, but it will be a more tedious process. In that case, just slice the vegetables as thin as possible crosswise.**to slice on a bias, simply rotate your knife to a 45 degree angle and cut vegetables in thin strips.
