Foods to Spiralize
Type
• Choose firm vegetables and fruits such as apples,
carrots, beets, butternut squash, cucumbers, jicama,
pears, parsnips, potatoes, rutabaga, sweet potatoes,
turnips, yellow squash, zucchini.
• Avoid soft or overripe foods.
Size
• Select foods that are at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter.
• Small foods like radishes will spiralize but will not yield a
great amount.
• Large-diameter foods should be trimmed to fit the chute.
Shape
• Symmetrical solid foods are the best choice.
• Foods that are hollow like bell peppers or with
multilayers such as onion and leeks are not good choices
for spiralizing.
Prep
• Peel any tough skin; remove stems, seeds and pits.
• Cut or trim large items to fit the diameter of the food
chute.
• Any length of food can be spiralized.
