What Is A Food Processor?
Food processors are designed to help simplify your time in the kitchen. They open the door to a whole range of kitchen creations, ranging from convenient food prep to creating complete dishes. Creating salad dressing, pureeing dips or chopping veggies are just the start. These ideas can help you make the most of your food processor.
Food processors vs. blenders
Many food processors and blenders have a lot of similarities, so it can be difficult to know which is best for the job. If you read an online recipe and wonder if a food processor can be used as a blender and vice versa, it can lead to confusion.
There are recipes and tasks that can be made equally well either in a blender or a food processor, and others will only perform correctly with the proper small appliance.
What does a food processor do?
A food processor brings so many flavor combinations and textures that it’s the ideal tool for experimenting with different ingredients and recipes. There are many sizes and capabilities of food processors.
For example, with this KitchenAid® mini-sized food processor you can quickly chop small amounts, emulsify spreads, and stir foods with its S-blade. Use it to prepare salads, emulsify dressings, and make one-egg mayo.
Larger food processors often come with more attachments, and can include disks that slice or shred, dough blades and a multi-sized food tube to process ingredients of different shapes and sizes.
