If you are making sauces, jams or pureeing foods for any reason, then you could use either a food processor, a blender, or your hand with a mortar and pestle but a food mill is the preferred option. Using the other tools is a two step process to first process the food, and then separate the seeds/skin, which is inefficient - especially in a busy kitchen. A food mill does it all in one easy step as the food is pushed down through a sieve.
The OXO Good Grips Food Mill is great for preparing fresh purees, sauces, soups and more. It has a stainless steel inner bowl that is ideal for hot foods and will not stain, and includes 3 stainless steel grinding discs for fine, medium and coarse textures.
- The fine disc can be used for homemade jellies, creamy sauces and baby food
- The medium disc for applesauce and vegetable soups
- The coarse disc for mashed potatoes and chunkier sauces.
Three non-slip legs hold the Food Mill securely over bowls and pots up to 11 inches in diameter and the legs also fold for easy storage. The soft, non-slip handle and knob ensure comfort when gripping the Food Mill and turning the blade. All parts are dishwasher-safe.
