A new heavy-duty vegetable dicer called the Garde DM38 is generating discussion online for its unconventional design, which uses a wire grid to shred produce rather than traditional blades. Users speculate it may work well for soft vegetables like onions that naturally break into uniform pieces but question its effectiveness with sturdier produce such as potatoes. Some suggest alternatives like julienne slicers or graters for better results with denser ingredients. The product’s unique approach has sparked curiosity among home cooks and food enthusiasts.
This looks like an interesting product: "Garde DM38". https://www.webstaurantstore.com/garde-dm38-3-8-heavy-duty-table-mount-vegetable-dicer/181DM38.html It seems to ram the vegetable through a wire grid though, not a blade. Might work on something like onions that naturally fall to dices when sliced, but I were to use it for potatoes, it seems like it would just smush them. For potatoes I think a julienne slicer or grater would be better. Does anyone have one of these? submitted by /u/Zealousideal_Ad5358 [link] [comments]
