I absolutely love your cookbook, especially the very back where you list all of the types of possible cuts, cooking times, and what can be eaten raw or cooked! Those charts are a huge time saver!

In reply to Charliette Blunt. Yes, it just might be a bit harder! In most cases, noodle shape is totally personal preference anyway.

I have a manual spiral(it’s all I could afford at the time). Can I really accomplish the spiral?

In reply to Anonymous. You can dice it up and use it in another recipe or just roast it.

what is to become of the bulbus end of the butternut squash once the squash is ready for the spiralizer?

In reply to Caroline. The noodles will not be consistent and long. Soft veggies don't typically spiralize well or at all.

Hi!
Thank you for the tutorial! I used it and loved it. I am wondering why we can’t use the seeded part?
Thank you!

Thank you so much for individual information. I just bought myself a spiralizer.I have LOVED making some of your noodle peeler recipies 🙂 But when I tried a butternut squash and I easily made noodle peeler into few minutes for this way. I tell to other users to visit this site.

I just was successful with my first attempt at spiralizing a butternut squash, thanks to all the comments and tips. I was having difficulty until I read some of the comments.

I also want to point out that it was very easy to peel with my Tupperware peeler. I can peel anything with that peeler and I’ve had it for years.

I had a hard time using the spitalizer on a butternut squash, the first time, until I read some comments above. I found all this info really useful. Thanks everybody. I succeeded in spiralizing my squash and now I know what to do.

By the way, I found it very easy to peel with my Tupperware peeler. It is excellent to peel everything, and I’ve had it a very Lon time.

Just did this on a Kitchen Aid w/ spiral cutter attachment. So guess what my wife is having for supper? With home made spaghetti sauce of course and a great garden salad.

In reply to Ally. If you have a KitchenAid there’s a KitchenAid spiralizer attachment that’s lovely!

Is there an electric version that will spiralize any type of squash (not just butternut) that you can recommend please?

And something that I can easily buy in the UK would be even better.

Thanks

In reply to Nancy. We do not use the veggie bullet, so we can not say. We recommend checking the manual to see what veggies you can spiralize with it.

In reply to joanne.

Hi Joanne, we recommend giving it another shot with a different squash. Those centers can sometimes be a bit too soft. If the issue continues, reach out to me – meaghan@inspiralized.com – and I can troubleshoot with you some more!!
