The Choice for Culinary School
January 4, 2008 CTCookfrom Connecticut
"Last year I took a sabatical from the real world to attend culinary school. Kitchenaid mixers were the school's hands-down choice. When we learned to make sausage this grinder was the vehicle we used to grind the meat (pork, veal, etc.). The key is to cut the ingredient into medium size pieces to facilitate easy passage through the grinder. Start with the larger die then pass the ingredient through the grinder a second time, using the smaller die. To ensure proper food safety, grind the meat into a bowl (the KA mixer bowl is ideal) that's placed in a second bowl partially filled with ice water. This ensures the meat will remain at a temperature that resists the growth of harmful bacteria. I was never much of a sausage fan until I tried some of the unique products we prepared in class. The success of those efforts motivated me to order the attachment and continue my experiments at home."

Dandy grinder
December 4, 2007 Potstickerfrom Indianapolis
"When the E coli scares started, I decided to grind my own meat to avoid contamination. I purchased this attachment for my KitchenAid, bought some chuck roast, and started my grinding adventures. Assembling all the parts takes practice, and cleaning requires a bottle brush and patience, but you'll love the resulting burgers, meatloaf, and sausages. Don't stop at meat though; you can grind about anything else from bread crumbs to dried fruit for fruitcake. When you make sausage, you can grind the spices in with the meat, but I do prefer to give the spices a ride in the coffee grinder first to make them smaller. If you prefer lower fat ground meats, you'll appreciate this device because you can reduce the amount of fat in the grind significantly and save some money at the same time."
