What is a "mandolin"?

A mandolin is a small, stringed instrument with a pear-shaped body and a short neck. It typically has eight strings arranged in four pairs, which are tuned to the same notes. The mandolin is played by plucking the strings with a pick, and it produces a bright, sharp sound with a fast, rhythmic quality. Its compact size and bright tone make it popular in folk, bluegrass, and classical music. The mandolin’s distinctive sound comes from its double courses of strings and its resonant wooden body, which contribute to its clear and lively musical presence.

What is a "mandolin"?

A mandolin is a kitchen tool used for slicing vegetables and fruits with precision and consistency. It typically consists of a flat, rectangular platform with an adjustable blade mounted at an angle. Mandolins often have a handguard or food holder to protect fingers and ensure uniform slices. To use a mandolin, you place the food item on the platform and slide it back and forth over the blade, which cuts the food into thin, even slices. Mandolins come with various blade attachments for different slicing styles, such as julienne, waffle, or crinkle cuts.
