Editorial Review: Product Description: This Potato Ricer in Stainless by MIU France is ideal for making your mashed potatoes. The press is designed much like a garlic press, just lift the handles and place the food into the hopper. You squeeze the handles together to press the food through the perforated hopper. The side hook helps you to secure the placement of the press over pots or bowls. Since the press breaks down large and small chunks of food, using the press will produce lighter, fluffier and smoother mashed potatoes. Unlike a food processor, the press will not over-work or break down the starches, which can result in gooey or gummy tasting potatoes. This press can be used with all steamed fruits and vegetables to make purees and sauces. Parents can use this press to make fresh, chemical, and preservative-free foods for toddlers. Dishwasher safe. For over 15 years MIU has been producing kitchenware products for the gourmet kitchenware industry. Their extensive knowledge and know-how on product design, market demand, manufacturing techniques, and more importantly what customers want has made their products favorites all over the world.

Size: 10.75L x 3.5W x 4.75H inches <--> Color: Stainless Amazon.com Review: The way to perfect mashed potatoes is through a ricer, the most basic form of which is the potato press. The reason it's so good to mash potatoes this way, is that it breaks down lumps that a hand-held masher might miss with the least amount of effort. Overworking cooked potatoes--by using a food processor, for instance--can break down starch molecules and result in gooey rather than smooth, fluffy mashed potatoes. The MIU France stainless steel potato presser works just like a large garlic press. Two hinged handles, when compressed, push a plunger down into a cylindrical hopper; the riced potato is then extruded out the bottom of the press. (It's called ricing because the pressed potato resembles grains of rice, at least until it gets mashed.) The bottom handle's comfortably-spaced finger indentations provide a strong grip while pressing. This tool is also well-suited for pureeing fruits and vegetables for soups, desserts, preserves, or homemade baby foods. The MIU France potato presser is made of 18/10 stainless steel--brushed on the inside with a high-gloss, chrome-like polish on the outside. The presser is dishwasher-safe. However, when washing by hand, avoid harsh abrasive scrubbers or cleansers in order to preserve the polished finish. The presser measures 11 by 4 by 4 inches, including handles. --Garland Withers Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Best Mashed Potatoes EverIf you want lump free mashed potatoes, this is the perfect gadget for you! It also makes spaetzle quite easily as well. It sits well ontop of a bowl which is important in a potato ricer. Easy, Easy, Easy to use, and easy to clean if you do it right away, a little more difficult if you let set out for a while with out soaking it. The extra discs could be stored a little better, but it's nice to have those options. All in all a very nice product. One more little tip, when ... Read More Rating:  - MIU France Stainless Steel Potato PresserA really good tool for the kitchen. It makes making mashed potatoes as easy as boiling water. You don't even have to peal them, just squeeze them through the skin and they are ready to add milk, butter, salt and pepper. Clean up is easy also, just put in the dishwasher and turn it on. I don't really care for the way the different grates are stored. If they could be placed with the Presser in a slot of holder that is part of the presser it would be nice. Over all it is very useful ... Read More |
