Known in France as a moulin á légumes, this classic low-tech tool treats food more gently than food processors. It purees and strains ingredients at the same time, producing a perfectly smooth, even texture. When you turn the crank, a rotating blade pushes foods through a perforated disk into a bowl, leaving unwanted fibers and particles behind. Cooks make the most of autumn’s root vegetables by using a manual food mill to create flavorful purees – the perfect accompaniment to roasted poultry and meats.Made of stainless steel, with a system of double milling on the bottom and sides. Capacity 8 quarts, produces 10 lbs per minute, fits on any pan or bowl with a diameter of 10 1/4” to 24”. Comes with 1/8” basket-shaped grid.
