[Dailydrool] slicing sweet potatoes

[KR1204 at aol.com]

I tried doing it by hand-too much work. I went to Bed Bath and Beyond with  
one of those 20% off coupons and got a mandolin slicer by Oneida (29.99) 
before  coupon. They also had a cheap looking one for 9.99 and a couple of 
pricey ones.  It took a little figuring because the directions are basically a 
photograph but  I have figured out the best setting to get perfect chips. I 
can slice up a half  dozen whole sweet potatoes in less than 5 minutes. You 
have to  handle it carefully though because unlike a knife, the blade 
actually takes a  chunk out of you if you touch it. With this one you also get 3 
bonus blades to  create various sized jullienned veggies. I used the largest 
one and made myself  sweet potato fries the other night. Why should the 
bassets get all the good  stuff?!
