My plastic vegetable slicer is orange after processing carrots - what can I do?
If your vegetable slicer has turned color after shredding carrots or tomatoes, first wash it under water. Then put some cooking oil (e.g. rapeseed or sunflower oil) on a cloth and rub the plastic part with it. The oil will bind the colorants and your vegetable slicer will look like new.
