Small Hand Operated Food Choppers

By Mariette Mifflin, About.com

Small food chopping projects like nuts, onions, and herbs can make you think twice about getting the food processor out. So here's a handy little kitchen gadget to the rescue.

Hand operated food choppers have been around a long time, so they're nothing new, and they are still a handy resource in the kitchen. How many times have you opted to manually chop walnuts, or carrots for a salad, because the thought of having to take apart a big food processor was not very appealing for a small task.

These little choppers make quick work of the chopping, and come apart very easily for cleaning. They would also be a big help to those who have trouble handling knives or chopping. You should ensure it has stainless steel blades, and that they remove easily for cleaning. Parts can usually go on the top rack of the dishwasher, on air dry of course.

These are sold at most major kitchenware retailers. Economical and timesavers, these are handy kitchen gadgets.
