Best uses for a food processor

cat4772

I have a 15 year old kenwood food processor and use it to:
mix cakes
whisk eggs
whisk cream
finely chop carrot / onion / celery / any vegetable
grate carrot / onion / celery / any vegetable
blitz old bread into breadcrumbs
make crumble topping
slice carrots (or any other vegetable)
grate cheese
made purees when weaning
made lumpy (not quite totally pureed) food when weaning
use the jug to make smoothies
blitz soup smooth
blitzed up and mixed mince with veg to make burgers
blitzed up beans and veg to make veggie burgers

I really need to get to grips with the dough hook tool and other bits and bobs it came with

I use mine all the time

Curry sauce, it slices the onions and turns the garlic and ginger into a paste

Dough hook, really does a great job kneading dough

Making pastry, blends the fat to the flour

Cheese grating

All vegetable slicing

Biscuit making

Butter making

Basically anything that makes my life easier. Mine sits on the counter and is used near enough daily

I hope mine gets used this m uch in the future. No dough hook here.

Mines on the counter too. Most of my gadgets are though, as no room in the cupboards!
