Kenwood kitchen machine: working with attachments

[ludmila_27.79]

ludmila_27.79, But in your photo it is fine for fries.

[Gayane Atabekova]

in the photo yes, for cutting into bars. And then I asked something else, specifically about the disk-grater for the AT340:

I only have a food processor and I always miss a disk with a fine grater there. There are large, medium and very small, for dranniki, though for me this is not for dranniki, but just some kind of puree. Does AT340 have a fine grater?

Gayane Atabekova, and on the disc that is in the photo for cutting into small bars, is it really cutting French fries? In my food processor on such a disc, it turns out very finely, as if grated on a coarse grater.

kseniya D or other members of the forum, you can take a picture of grated, for example, carrots on a fine grater AT340, not very small, but just fine. And then I always think to buy AT340 or not, because after all, they are in many ways similar to a food processor.

[ludmila_27.79]

ludmila_27.79, It is on this disk that I get for fries. On just fine, I rub carrots and beets for borscht. Unfortunately with the photo I was strained. They teach me, teach me, but I still don't understand. Probably age no longer allows you to make friends with a computer so much

[ludmila_27.79]

ludmila_27.79, girls, do not be lazy to read the topic!
There are not many pages here, and there are pictures of discs, chopped vegetables, and more.
for example... Well, look further.

I only have it frozen. Average grater of 340.

[kseniya D]

kseniya D, thanks for the photo. Here is my photo of grated carrots with a regular grater, size compared to a toothpick.

That's how I would like to grate Kesha, but in my opinion, judging by the photo, the average AT340 grater still rubs coarsely.

This will be on a fine grater.

That is, on a fine grater it turns out just finely, and not puree like in a food processor?

It will turn out so small, no mashed potatoes.

[kseniya D]

kseniya D, Thank you! So I still need AT340.

Against the clock.
There is a special. a little thing in the accessories, which can be twisted and unscrewed.

Thank you so much! Spun really "from the bottom of my heart." I had to heat up ..

anyone interested in seeing Kenwood disassembled, you can do it here

It's very interesting, but it's far from a disassembled view.
They promised to give me one machine for disassembly. I really don't know which one. Then we'll see what's inside, if not deceived. However, there will be nothing to compare with.

Members of the forum, share how you use the K-shaped nozzle and the flexi-nozzle.

In fact, the flexion nozzle is the same K-shaped nozzle, which additionally scrapes cream or oil from the walls.
Well, according to the nozzles, it can be very conditionally divided as follows:
- whisk - liquid fractions:
- K-shaped - medium soft and viscosity:
- hook - dense fractions, steep dough.

But I need not only juice, but also pulp. I want to make ketchup. Does the tomato pulp fail?

It is best to do this on an auger juicer in 3 passes.

and smooth for what?

As I understand it, the rough side for those cases when you need to tear the flesh of the product to shreds.
Smooth for all other occasions.
For example, wipe cottage cheese.

[Paul I]

I finally tried my cube cutter attachment. We can say the first pancake is lumpy. She made vinaigrette and okroshka. Boiled potatoes and carrots a day in advance and put them in the refrigerator.I began to cut potatoes with a nozzle, at first good, even pieces were obtained.

Then the pieces stopped falling, and I continued to cut, then I also cut the carrots. When I disassembled the nozzle, I saw that everything had stuck together into a single porridge, so that it turned out not cubes, but mashed potatoes and carrots.

I understood why it happened. Because I took potatoes: some from the market were homemade, and some from the supermarket. The one that is homemade, it is well cut into pieces without turning into porridge, but from the supermarket I noticed before that even manually cutting potatoes normally does not work, porridge comes out. Conclusion: for boiling for salad, you need to take homemade potatoes or one in which you are sure that it is normal. Or do as advised Paul I, cut raw potatoes, and then boil them.
Cut eggs, it turns out fine.

And somehow I almost immediately began to chop raw vegetables into cubes and put them in a double boiler! By the way, this makes the cubes smaller)

It's not even about whether it's cut or not, but about what tastes better to me. It is not the vinaigrette porridge that turns out to taste, but the combination of the taste of specific vegetables. Oh how bent

For many years (even before buying Kenwood), I cut carrots and potatoes into raw cubes for all salads, then quickly boil them in a small amount of water (maximum 1-2 minutes, as it starts to boil). No steamers, no sticky porridge! I would have boiled beets like that, if it hadn't lost color.

How long does it take to steam diced potatoes?

I cook in Panase cartoon, set the cooking mode for a couple of 10 minutes, and + until the water boils. In one basket and potatoes and carrots.

And on the stove, steam for 10 minutes too?

I put it in a double boiler for 15-20 minutes. Carrots with beets separately, they are up to an hour or also 15 minutes and in cold water, reach.

[irysikf]

irysikf, I have an AT 445 potato peeler attachment. What can I say, I either use it, or else it is lying around somewhere on a shelf idle. It cleans well only small, even, without eyes, young store potatoes. But it does not peel home potatoes very well. Here is a photo:

Then you have to clean it up manually. Here is a photo of how many more cleanings I cleaned by hand after peeling potatoes.

That is, after the potato peeler, you still have to cut out the eyes by hand and clean some places.
I saw that many online stores no longer have this attachment, they write it has been discontinued. Maybe they want to modify it and then release a newer, improved model, Paul I, What do you think?

[Olga VB]

I finally tried my cube cutter. We can say the first pancake is lumpy.
I understood why it happened. Because I took potatoes: some from the market were homemade, and some from the supermarket.

I also understand: because the topic was not read
There is already so much information on the topic of vinaigrette!
And there are several ways to avoid porridge. And the main one is to view the topic at least diagonally.

Does someone have a nozzle - a potato peeler? Please share your impressions of this nozzle, otherwise I can't find anything about it (

Irina, the same! Here you can't find something about a potato peeler - you really need to try, that is, not even start looking.
Therefore, I once again have a convincing request to everyone: before asking questions, read the topic !!! And before answering 100 times tested questions, think about whether it is worth spending time where someone else did not even bother to spend 30 seconds.

And the forum users ask questions that are already repeated, because, indeed, there is no time to read the whole topic,

Do others have a lot of free time to answer the same questions 25 times or look for links on the topic instead of you?
Read here, here, here and further - note that this is the very beginning of the topic, it would take you much less time to search than to spoil products.

Olga VB, Thank you so much.It's just that I didn't read the information under the spoiler before (I didn't know that something else was written there) and I missed a lot of information.

[Paul I]

Paul IWhy is there nowhere to improve? After all, there used to be a potato peeler with sandpaper, then it was taken out of production and came out with plastic spikes, now this one has also been discontinued. And that Kesha won't have a potato peeler anymore?

I have both potato peelers. I don't brush with my hands anymore! I bought one for home and another for the dacha. Happy !!!!
I can say with confidence that the first one is like sandpaper, peels so that the potatoes are almost smooth. only the eyes have to be cleaned, it's true. but then washing the nozzle is not easy ...
and the second, more modern one, peels the potatoes so that they are all velvety, they never turn out smooth, but after cooking everything is somehow smoothed out more or less. but the new one washes perfectly under running water, everything is easily washed off, nothing needs to be cleaned.
in order not to finish cleaning the potatoes, you have to wait a little longer, it would be faster with your hands. but this time can be spent usefully on something else.

No, well, of course any shape of potatoes can be "peeled" with this machine to perfect shine and perfect spherical shape. The question is, how much was cut in cleaning? Half a potato? Well, while fat years you can afford such lordship, but ...

clean the same time. And about cleaning, then you cut more with your hands. the machine only scrapes. when you drain everything that has been cleaned, it is clearly visible.
but soft potatoes will definitely not peel, since they scrape off the skin, but when you peel such potatoes with your hands, it is difficult to remove thinner ones. a lot of waste remains
so I still disagree with those who claim that it is a useless thing.

How do you clean for 2-3 minutes? The potatoes will not peel at all, I take 6-8 minutes. I am cleaning and already decently cleans cleanings, probably a glass of potato slurry.

like a glass of slurry. but there would be much more dry cleanings if they were cleaned by hand.
yes, I confirm that when buying potatoes, I am quite selective. I type with my hands, trying to be more or less even and of the same size.

in supermarkets, mainly in Okey. In the afternoon there is an opportunity to go to the store, while there are not many people there and fresh vegetables are on display. I tried to buy something decent after 4 pm - all to no avail.

I ordered a glass bowl for my KMH 50, and now I sit and think about how it is in operation (for strength), who can share your opinion

I also have a glass one, at first I took it, as an addition ... and now I use it all the time ... and that one is in stock ...

And why is a glass bowl better than a metal one, only because it is transparent?

I like it ... he kneads ... but I don't look inside ... but I see in the distance ... a bun ...

and for strength (with micro impacts) like a Bowl, hot syrup for protein cream can be poured in?

I didn’t hit ... hot syrup, I didn’t pour it ... I think it can handle everything ...

I have a Kesha blender with a metal container. So inconvenient, you can't see anything how it mixes up there. You have to open and watch. But you will not buy a glass blender just because of this. But the main bowl suits me and the metal one, from above the whole process is still visible.

It was I who answered the question whether my stationary potato peeler really peels potatoes well (I don’t have that barely peeling Scar attachment, I just want to buy it).I really do it in such a short time (I guess the time depends on the roughness of the iron insert and bowl). By cleaning, I meant that I clean it by hand, and the slurry is really a glass.

[irysikf]

irysikf, I'm completely confused. Kesha's potato peeler has a plastic bowl and insert. So if your Clathronic cleans well and quickly, then I think it makes no sense to buy Keshina a potato peeler.

Yes, an interesting version.

Why a version? We cooked mashed potatoes right in this bowl on the table. And before that, under the pillow, if it's far from dinner, the lid is tight.

Pavel, I understand you have a glass bowl? How is she to the fortress?

I have three of them: stainless steel, glass and plastic (from under the ice cream maker). We use all three actively.
The glass is very durable. But the crash tests did not suit. If it falls to the floor, it may break.

Pavel, that is, you can knead hot mashed potatoes in a glass bowl?

Can.

Devuli, there is an AT 647 nozzle. I want to scold the cabbage for pies. Can you please tell me which disc number can I use?
I don’t like to cut cabbage so much that I’m ready to use the nozzle.

[Rita]

Rita, fine shredder or small cubes. In the first case, there will be long columns, in the second there will be squares. I don't remember the disc numbers.

Girls. Help.
My AT640 pusher crashed
Where to buy a new one?

[3do4ki]

3do4ki,
Julia, try to call here ... I ordered a knife for mine here ...

🔗kenwood food processor pusher

Lyudmila K-shaped I mix minced meat

Minced meat just for five plus and the dough is muffin or other thin.

K-shaped mince is just fine!

How fast are you doing this? I did it at 3 or 4 (I don't remember anymore) - the minced meat stuck to the sides of the bowl and that's it. Minced meat was 700 g. Now I mix with handles. Please teach.

[Peter Push]

Peter Push, Minced meat on the first mixes perfectly

[Peter Push]

Peter Push, if for cutlets / meatballs, then beat for 1-2.

If for ham / sausage, then beat for 1-2 at first, quite a bit, until I add everything, and then on the 5th for about 12-15 minutes. If the correct ratio of meat (protein) -fat-water (milk), then at this speed and for such a time, almost an ideal emulsion.

The ideal emulsion is better with knives, but the harvester attachment, like most other combines, very warm the meat with knives. I haven't found the perfect harvester yet for the perfect emulsion at a great price. There is probably somewhere

But K-shaped is also good, almost ideal.

on the 5th for about 12-15 minutes

Ogos ... and I for 5 minutes maximum for 4-5, but first I mix it for 1.

[LisaNeAlisa]

LisaNeAlisa, but try it sometime for 10-13 minutes.
The result is completely different.

But at first I keep the minced meat in the freezer for 20 minutes, and the K-shaped one is just in the refrigerator. You can also hold the bowl in the refrigerator, but I always have no room for the bowl. And when it is spinning, I add the frozen milk until soft ice in 6-7 minutes, about 50 ml.

The main thing is that the meat does not heat up above 12 degrees, maximum 13 degrees. And so, the longer beats off, the better the emulsion.

Well, there must be fat. There will simply be no emulsion from protein-water, maximum white threads. Either a piece of lard without spices, twisted, if the meat is lean, or the meat itself is with fat.

I will do it next week, I will take a picture of how it is after 15 minutes. and ready-made.

[Miranda, kseniya D, LisaNeAlisa,]

Miranda, kseniya D, LisaNeAlisa, girls. Thank you very much, how you helped me out !!! So far, I'm making cutlets and others like them, but I really want to master the ham. Could you advise a good and inexpensive device for this purpose, maybe I'm not in the subject ((

[Peter Push]

Peter Push.Go to the topic home smokehouse with water lock. There, on the penultimate or last page, I described in detail how I make ham. Such a ham cannot be bought anywhere for any money. I make from the ham.

[Gayane Atabekova,]

Gayane Atabekova, I live in a high-rise building on the 8th floor and this option does not suit me, I meant a ham maker, with its help they make ham in a saucepan (or cartoon).

[Peter Push]

I meant a ham, with its help they make ham in a saucepan (or mult).

Peter Push, You don't want Teskomovskaya? I bought it not so long ago, but I'm very happy with it. Moreover, there is a large topic with different recipes.

[Peter Push]

Peter Push, ham and other under the press I do in Tescom.
I really like Tescom's thing.

And in general, the closed design (Teskoma or Belovin) is more pleasant to Beloboka and others of the same type with springs.

There are many topics on the forum about these things, so I do not give links, since there are more than three of them.

And what is not under pressure, that is, other sausage - a sausage syringe and a casing. (topic about a sausage syringe here https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=455592.0 )

The mixer for preparing meat / minced meat is just a great helper!

[Peter Push]

Peter PushOf course it's up to you. But I also live in a high-rise building on the 4th floor. I just put the hose from the smokehouse into the hood and there is no smoke in the apartment. I think according to my recipe, after boiling, you can bake the ham for about 15 minutes in a hot oven and do without a smokehouse. It should be delicious. Forgive me if I climb with unnecessary advice.

[Gayane Atabekova]

Gayane Atabekova, as for food, then all the tips are useful!
I think so

[Peter Push]

Peter Push, I have endever. I am very pleased. Especially in the heat, it saved me when I wanted sweets, and it was like turning on the oven for death.
