How To Make Zucchini Noodles without a Spiralizer
Not everyone has a spiralizer. And, who wants to sink money into a new kitchen gadget before even knowing if you'll like what it makes? So, here's how to make different types of zucchini noodles without a spiralizer.
For spaghetti-like noodles similar to the results with a spiralizer, try using a julienne peeler. Slide the peeler down the length of the squash to create the noodles.
For flat noodles similar to lasagna, try using a mandoline slicer. You can also use a regular vegetable peeler, but the results likely won't be as uniform.
For noodles similar to fettuccine, you can do that too. Just stack the flat noodles as you slice them. Then, use a chef's knife to slice them into narrow strips.
While you can certainly create all of these noodles simply using a chef's knife, if you have a julienne peeler, vegetable peeler, or a mandoline in the kitchen already, it will make quicker work of it.
