food processor
Having this equipment on your kitchen counter is like having extra hands, or better yet, a maid to help you with your cooking. The food processor will sit quietly in one corner, looking cool and demure. But when you call on it for help it will spring into action like a mad tiger. In seconds, it will turn old toasted bread into breadcrumbs or mix some dough for rolls. It will take just a few seconds for it to prepare some homemade mayonnaise or a mean salsa.
Are you making a salad? Think of the cutting and slicing that you will have to do in preparing the ingredients. It can take you a good half hour or more. With a food processor, it will only take seconds to reduce a pile of vegetable and fruits that will go into your salad. A useful tip is to cut the ingredients into the processor bowl in sequence, moisten with dressing then invert the salad into a serving bowl. How easy is that?
