Kenwood KMix |
This little piece of machinery is just perfect for those with limited storage space.
It is a medium sized food processor, that was fairly inexpensive, is dishwasher friendly, and does the job of a mandolin, grater, and everything else you would expect it to do.
This model was a gift from Alex when we moved into our first home together, and I must admit, it really is one of my most treasured gifts from him. (Not everything needs to come from Cartier).
It is just so useful, and I use it all the time - especially when a dish requires copious amounts of onion.....I promise you, this little lady is a Godsend.
Now I must also share this little story with you........
Every time I look at my lovely Kenwood KMix, it reminds me of Alex's father, George.
One day as George was slaving away in the kitchen, (yes it is indeed possible to get a Mediterranean man into the kitchen before the food is ready to be consumed!), manually grating onions and potatoes, he huffed and puffed, and exclaimed:
"I can't believe they haven't invented a machine to do all this bloody work for me"
I composed myself, stifled my shock and said:
"Ummmmm.......they have George, I think about 30 years ago........."
The silence was deafening........
