Hydrocoloid chopping tricks

[JMN]

Okay, so cutting it up sucks and takes time you can do something else.

I've seen or heard of using
Salad shooters
Food processors
lab knives
Vidaila onion choppers
slap/spring onion knife jar things

But the best I've ever seen was using a cheese grater. Uniform size and fast to do.

Any other or better ideas out there?

Pampered Chef chopper, just take the bowl off of it. I like the cheese grater idea though, will have try that. Now lets get this thread BACK on track.

My brother gave me one like this and said "I bought this and it didn't work like I thought so I thought you might be able to use it in your lab for something". I used it several times but I saw no difference in using it or slicing up hydrocolloid with a knife.

Yeah, I never found those to get anywhere closer to speed or efficiency above a lab knife either. Different things work better for different minds and methods I guess.

I worked at a place once where they used a pineapple dicing utensil, you put the colloid in a bucket and chop away. It worked really well and was fast.

We use a metal scrapper and chop it right in the bucket it came in. I usually do this immediately after making my morning phone calls, great stress reliever.
