Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a cooking utensil, in particular to a multifunctional vegetable cutter for cutting food materials. Background Art

[0002] In response to different ingredients and different cooking needs, the ingredients need to be cut into slices, blocks, strips, etc., and in order to improve the degree of rawness and doneness of all ingredients and the taste of the dishes, the ingredients in the same dish need to be cut into the same specifications as much as possible, such as radish strips of the same width, potato cubes of the same size, etc.

[0003] The tools used to cut ingredients are various types of knives, but the cutting efficiency of knives is low, and it is extremely difficult to cut ingredients of the same specification, which requires rich cooking experience. In view of this, people gradually use various types of vegetable cutters to assist in cutting ingredients. These vegetable cutters generally include a container at the bottom, with various types of blades arranged above the container, and a press plate that can be pressed down is arranged above the blade. The ingredients are pressed toward the blade by the press plate to cut the ingredients. However, just as the force required for a knife to cut ingredients obliquely is much less than the force required to cut ingredients vertically downward, a vegetable cutter that cuts ingredients by pressing downward also requires a lot of force to use, which makes it difficult to use, especially for women and the elderly with weak constitutions, and often they cannot even be used.
