Shiri-Shiri Stainless Steel Vegetable Shredder

At a glance

• Creates coarse, textured vegetable strips that hold dressings and seasonings more readily
• Gives vegetables more bite than a fine julienne or grater
• Useful for salads, stir-fries, soups and hot-pot ingredients

Shiri-Shiri is designed for a different result from a fine julienne slicer.

Instead of producing thin, perfectly smooth strands, its stainless-steel cutting surface creates broader vegetable strips with a slightly uneven texture. That texture gives dressings and seasonings more surface to cling to while leaving the vegetables with a more noticeable bite.

Kyoto Katsugu designed the cut at approximately 5.5mm wide, making it particularly useful for carrots, daikon and other firm vegetables where you want more texture than a fine shred.

Use it for dressed carrot or daikon salads, slaws, stir-fries, soups or hot-pot ingredients. The natural wood body gives the tool a stable surface to hold while shredding, and its slim board-like shape stores easily alongside other kitchen tools.
