What is a food processor?

How does a food processor work? A food processor beats, kneads, mixes, chops, slices, purees, grates, and blends ingredients such as nuts, dough, vegetables, or meat. You can use a food processor, for example, to do the following tasks:

• Cutting or grating vegetables
• Chopping vegetables or fruit
• Grating cheese
• Grinding meat into minced meat
• Grinding nuts or spices
• Whipping cream or egg whites
• Making dough
• Making milkshakes
• Making sauces or soups
• Making breadcrumbs

Food processor vs blender

Not sure if you need a food processor or a blender? What is the difference between the two? The two appliances are designed for quite different purposes and functions. Blenders are best suited for mixing wet and dry ingredients. They are ideal for smoothies, soups, and for more liquid-heavy meals in general. Food processors, on the other hand, are the better option for drier and heavier ingredients - that is, when you are using less liquid and need more intensive chopping and blending. The options for food processor accessories are many, however, and can help you perform various extra tasks. 

What to look for when buying a food processor?

Are you interested in buying a food processor? Here is a list of things to consider when looking for the best food processor for your kitchen.

• Power: the more watts, the faster ingredients are processed. With a powerful motor, grinding and blending hard ingredients such as nuts or ice cubes is made easier. If you want to use harder ingredients in your food processor, we recommend an appliance with a power of at least 1000 watts.  
• The mixing bowl: the capacity and material of the bowl are important factors to consider. The larger the bowl, the more ingredients you can process. Take into account the size of your household to make sure that the food processor you buy is big enough for your meals. As for materials, the sturdier the better - especially if you plan to use the food processor often and for a long time. We recommend materials such as stainless steel or plastic, which can withstand frequent use and are durable.
• Accessories: food processors are usually delivered with several attachments. Take into consideration the types of recipes you want to make using your food processor, and which accessories you will need to complete them. It is also possible to buy additional attachments to your food processor, in case the traditional package does not include all the accessories you may be looking for. For example, if you would like to make smoothies using your food processor, a blender mixer is necessary. 
• Cleaning: choose an appliance with detachable parts if you are looking for a food processor that is the easiest to clean.
• Functions: food processors come with various functions, such as pulse features and other speed settings. Some even include timers, so be sure to check ou the product details to find your favourite ones.
