I love my OXO salad spinner. It is very easy to use: rinse, push and brake.
Yes, you heard right. Brake.
OXO has included a brake button to stop the spinning.
OXO is always improving their products. The latest update on this salad spinner?
The lid comes apart for easy cleaning.
Score!
This qualifies as a Cool Kitchen Tool in my book! (See Tab at top of blog for more favorites!)
Did you know that you can use this for MORE than cleaning lettuce?
- Rinse and dry fresh herbs
- soak potato slices to remove starch and rinse dry
- use as a colander (drain pasta, ice bath to cool hard boiled eggs, etc.)
- Drain and clean leeks (gets ALL the dirt out!)
- Dry fresh produce (stays fresher in the fridge)
- cleaning lettuce, of course!

As Maureen
ReplyDeleteI like a sprinkling of LEMON on my salad.
Maureen, lemon is very refreshing on a salad ~ my father in law loves a simple balsamic vinegar/olive oil as his salad dressing.
DeleteWhat a cool gadget!I love how you don't have to spin it ~ just pump it. My favorite salad dressing is Good Seasons Italian made with balsamic vinaigrette ~ (blended til it's homogenized).
ReplyDeleteHoney Mustard is my favorite :)
ReplyDeleteI like any non-sweet dressing -- no honey mustard for me, please -- but I always go back to my lemon/cider vinegar Dijon vinaigrette.
ReplyDeletePoppy seed.
ReplyDeleteLemon poppyseed!! SO good but not so good for you.
ReplyDeleteLemon Poppyseed! So good but not so good for you sadly!

ReplyDeleteOh, my... you have piqued my interest! If you do find the recipe, please share!
DeleteOoh, nice! I always go for the blue cheese or the Italian dressing, but we did get some kind of eggnog dressing with a tiny bit of mustard at our company Christmas party last year at Cucina Toscana. I have never forgotten it and have thought about trying to recreate it some time.
