How Commercial Mandolins, Moulins & Triturators Work
Each of these tools approaches food prep differently, but they all share a focus on precision and efficiency. Mandolins feature adjustable blades that food slides across, creating perfect, consistent slices every time. Moulins typically use a rotating blade system with a hand crank or lever to force food through various cutting discs—brilliant for creating consistent dices, brunoise cuts or purées. Triturators, meanwhile, use powerful motors to grind, blend or pulverise ingredients to specific textures, often with adjustable settings for different consistencies. The magic lies in their ability to replicate the same cut thousands of times without fatigue—something even the most skilled chef can't match!
