Baked Cayenne Fries with the Surpahs V-Blade Mandoline

cindy — Fri, 02 Jun 2017 10:00:00 +0000

I love French Fries but we are trying to eat healthier so we are cutting back on fried foods, especially at home. This means making baked fries whenever possible. In the past, I have tried 2 different mandolines and they were either bulky or not sharp enough to cut the potatoes. We always end up just cutting them with a knife. Recently I received a Surpahs V-Blade Mandoline to try. I was skeptical because we hadn’t had success in the past but I am always willing to try something new.

While I was preparing the other parts of our meal, hubby took to slicing the potatoes using the wavy blade. We learned a few things very quickly: 1. cut the potato into halves or thirds before putting on the mandoline, if it is too big the safety guard can’s slide in its groove. 2. The blades are SHARP. We almost had to take hubby to get stitches. His large piece of potato stopped sliding on the blade, (he was using the hand guard), his hand slipped of the hand guard and kept moving. OUCH! Yes, there is a safety and a learning curve with this appliance but it works great. I would NEVER let children use this tool. After using this mandoline slicer, I threw my other 2 away!

I use the kitchen scale regularly and we gave the bathroom scale to Aaron and Summer as part of their housewarming gift. Today I have two more Surpahs kitchen products to share with you and I am so happy to continue my relationship with Surpahs this year.

The first product is the Surpahs Over the Sink Multipurpose Roll-Up Dish Drying Rack. I have very little counter space in my small galley kitchen. When I have dishes drying on my main counter space, I cannot accomplish anything else. This reason alone is why I am in love with this Roll Up Dish Drying Rack. As you can see in the photo above, on the left the rack is rolled up and is out of the way so we can use the sink. On the right, the rack is rolled out and holds some tumblers I had just washed. This solution wastes none of my precious counter space ant that is a win for me! The Roll Up Dish Drying Rack is available at Amazon (click the link above) for $19.99 and would make a great bridal shower or wedding gift too!

I have been in desperate need of new cutting boards. For several years I had a set of 4 plastic cutting boards, each labled with the type of food that was to be cut on them. They worked well for years but lately the color on them comes off when they are used on our counter! It is very difficult to clean off too. Today I threw those old cutting boards away! Now I am using the Surpahs Kitchen 3-Layer Cross-Laminated Bamboo Cutting Board 3 Piece Set . These cutting boards have made meal prep much easier and much less messy! These 3 cutting boards, available at Amazon are only $18.98! You get a set of 3 ultra-thin bamboo cutting boards in small (8″x6″), medium (11″x9″) and large (13″x9.5″) sizes. They are constructed of high quality eco-friendly bamboo in 3-Layer overlapping joins. The knife-friendly surface helps protect blade integrity. The natural beautiful finish is FDA certificated.

I’m loving these new kitchen tools from @surpahs

Surpahs Kitchen Scale Review

I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”I have wanted a good kitchen scale for a long time. We have been using our mail scale in the kitchen for years! I’ve been using the Surpahs Touch Tempered Glass Precision Digital Kitchen Food Scale for about a week now and it is wonderful! This scale is beautiful to look at with its sleek appearance and it has several useful functions for all types of cooking and baking uses.

About the Surpahs Kitchen Scale

This scale is made of tempered glass and is powered by a lithium battery. I weighs items from 2g-11 lbs, most kitchen scales only weigh up to 4lbs. The scale also offers a low battery indicator, auto-off feature (after 60 seconds) and touch button use. The tare function allows you to zero out the scale when you have a bowl, pot or plate on top of it so it only weighs the contents.

Mom Maven’s Thoughts

I really like this scale. Not only does it look nice but it has a large LED screen and several functions. In the photo above I was weighing out the chicken I needed so I could make my Parmesan Crusted Chicken. The Surpahs Touch Tempered Glass Precision Digital Kitchen Food Scale has 4 different weighting options so it will be handy for baking and lots of other kitchen tasks. I am glad our mail scale can move back into the office and this scale can take its place on the kitchen counter.
