Food Processors Are Invaluable In Your Kitchen

Food processors chop and dice food that you would normally have to do by hand

. There are many different sizes of processors and some that will even mix up a New York Cheese cake batter or knead the dough for bread. Some have a capacity of 2 cups and some will go all the way up to 14 cups.

Food Processors save a lot of time in the kitchen because they will chop in much less time that you can do it manually. Most processors have different blades and can dice, slice, and chop. They have a clear bowl made of plastic that snaps into a platform. There is a plastic lid that snaps on to the bowl that has a chute where the food can be introduced to the processor. Inside the bowl is a rod where the blades are attached.

Some of the large and more expensive units have various blades. Several may look like a large disc and will allow you to slice and shred. The disc attaches to the shaft and are situated up near the lid. As the food is cut it falls through to the bowl below. The blade that chops has a central shaft that connects to the shaft into the bowl at the bottom and has two sharp blades on each side. Several brands have julienne discs, whisks and egg whips, French fry discs, dough mixers, and juicers.

It is a luxury to have a processor that will dice onions without getting the scent all over your hands. You only have to quickly take the skin off and maybe cut the onion once in half and the processor does everything else. To grate Parmesan or mozzarella you just place the shredding disc on and feed the cheese down the feeder.

Baby food is easily made in a processor and if you make it you know exactly what you are feeding your baby. To make an easy spaghetti sauce just put garlic, onions, some green pepper, and tomatoes down the chute then pour it into a pan to cook. You will be able to produce much healthier meals for your family because you will use all fresh ingredients and make it yourself.

Most processors have only one speed unlike a blender. The newer models might have two. Processors are very safe to use because the motor will not turn on unless the lid is snapped into place on the bowl. After the food is processes you have to take the blade out to get to the food, but there is little chance you can be cut. The lid will be off and the blades cannot move.

Clean up is very easy when using a processor. No more cutting boards to sanitize either. Just place the bowl with the lid and the blades into the dishwasher after giving them a quick rinse. You will have to clean off the base because the motor will not be able to be submerged into water.

Expensive food processors will chop more ways and do more things that the cheaper ones. They will do almost anything for you and have the horse power to do it. A medium priced machine is probably good for the regular household. The small types do not have much room to make much of anything and they do not have the power to create family recipes. They are good for chopping an onion or maybe some herbs. If you have a family it is better to get one that has a bit more strength and capacity.
