Slicers are essential tools in the kitchen, for both cooking enthusiasts and professionals. From cutting precision to ease of use, a good slicer can make a real difference in preparing quality dishes.

Discover how to choose the right slicer and follow our tips to make the most of it.

Why choose a slicer?

A slicer is not just for cured meats: it’s versatile and suitable for many ingredients, such as vegetables, bread, and cheese. Using it allows you to:

• Save time: uniform cuts in seconds.
• Preserve freshness: slice on the spot for better taste.
• Customize thickness: from ultra-thin slices to thicker cuts, as needed.

How to choose the right slicer

1. Blade size

   • Small (19–22 cm): ideal for domestic use.
   • Large (25–30 cm): perfect for working with large quantities or bulky products.

2. Material
   Choose a stainless steel blade to ensure durability and corrosion resistance.

3. Functionality and safety

   • Non-slip feet for stability.
   • Hand protection and locking systems for safe use.
   • Easy to clean, with removable parts.

4. Design and size
   If you have limited space, opt for a compact and foldable model.

Creative ideas with the slicer

1. Perfect cuts for cured meats
   Slice prosciutto, mortadella, and salami to create a flawless charcuterie board. Add cheese and olives for a chef-style appetizer.

2. Thinly sliced vegetables

   • Zucchini and eggplant: ideal for parmigiana or grilling.
   • Potatoes: for light and crispy homemade chips.

3. Always fresh bread
   Slice loaves and baguettes with precision to get perfect slices for sandwiches or bruschetta.

4. Aged cheeses
   With the slicer, you can obtain thin slices of aged cheeses like pecorino or Parmigiano, ideal for carpaccio or gourmet decorations.

Maintenance: how to keep it at its best

1. Regular cleaning
   After each use, remove food residues and clean the blade with a damp cloth and a mild detergent.

2. Blade sharpening
   Use a specific sharpener to keep the blade efficient and precise.

3. Lubrication
   Apply a little food-grade oil periodically to the moving parts to extend the slicer's life.

A slicer is not just a tool but a real ally in the kitchen, capable of enhancing every dish with precise and uniform cuts. Whether you are a lover of cured meats or a creative cooking enthusiast, choosing and using the right slicer will help you achieve impeccable results every time.
