Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of MIU France Stainless Steel Potato Ricer
Customer Review: Best Mashed Potatoes Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
If 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 you do make mashed potatoes with this, you won't need to add as much milk. This is a mistake you only make once!
Description of MIU France Stainless Steel Potato Ricer
Stainless Steel Jumbo Potato RicerThe 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
