Norpro Natural Wooden Cheese Slicer

Crafted from the finest materials, this functional cheese slicer is designed to double as a convenient serving piece. The cutting wire effortlessly sinks through even the hardest cheeses, allowing you to achieve a perfect slice, whether thick or thin, every time. Included with the slicer are extra replacement wires, ensuring you can maintain optimal performance. Constructed from natural wood and featuring a stainless steel handle, this cheese slicer is easy to clean – simply run a knife through the cutting slot, wipe with a damp soapy cloth, and then dry immediately. It is not dishwasher safe, but can be maintained by occasionally rubbing a soft cloth moistened with mineral or vegetable oil. Measuring 10" x 7" (25.5cm x 18cm), this cheese slicer is a versatile and practical addition to any kitchen.

When it comes to getting the best results from this cheese slicer, or any other wire-based cheese slicer, the key is to understand the characteristics of the cheese you're working with. The firmness of the cheese plays a significant role in determining whether the taut stainless-steel filament will easily pass through to produce a succulent slab, or if you'll end up with a broken string and a sharp twang, resembling the loser at a Dueling Banjos showdown. The manufacturers at Norpro recognize this, which is why they've included two replacement wires with their hardwood cheese slicer. The wire can be installed quickly and easily into the clean-lined, coping-saw-like handle. However, it's important to stick to unaged Cheddar and other semi-firm cocktail-party varieties when using this slicer. Attempting to use the Norpro to slice through a Gouda or Stilton doesn't provide the wire with the right resistance to showcase its full capabilities.

In summary, this cheese slicer is a versatile and well-designed tool that can easily handle cheeses of various sizes and thicknesses, while also doubling as a convenient serving piece. With its natural wood construction, stainless steel handle, and included replacement wires, it's a durable and practical addition to any kitchen. To get the best results, it's essential to choose the right cheese that will allow the cutting wire to perform at its best, ensuring you can produce perfect slices every time.
