WHAT MAKES IT TICK?
The
mixer has had a long time following and continues to be a coveted wedding gift,
according to wedding industry experts. Owing to the fact that not only is it a
very useful tool to have, but it comes in fun colours. Even people who don’t
cook all that much want the KitchenAid to stand proudly on their counter and
accessorize their kitchen. In India KitchenAid offers the mixer in colours
such as Tangerine, Raspberry Ice, Candy Apple, Onyx Black etc. The most popular
colour for newly married couples, however, is the Empire Red. One of the newest
improvements to the KitchenAid stand mixer is their sturdiest wire whip
yet. Unlike the dough hook and paddle attachments, the whip have several
different parts affixed together, making it the part that takes the most abuse
literally. When the couple already has the mixer, the pasta roller attachment
is phenomenal for making fresh pasta a regular event rather than a special
chore. Other attachments include the ice cream maker, a meat grinder, and a
citrus juicer. Known as the workhorse and the ‘John Deere of the kitchen’, the
appliance is valued by most users because it makes cooking easy and fun. It
saves the hands so much time to continue prepping other ingredients as one need
not stand and watch as things mix together. Basically this decadently versatile
stand mixer is a smaller version of commercial-size models; and is designed
with enough power and capacity to prepare large batches of cake batter or
cookie dough without compromising one the kitchen counter space. ‘Food should
be fun’ as Thomas Keller once said and the KitchenAid Stand mixer just
does that…. as the KitchenAid mixer can turn any novice to a bonafide chef. Happy
Cooking on that note!
