Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the Cuisinox MIL 924 food mill used for?
It is used to mash and puree cooked foods while straining out skins, seeds, and fibers. Common uses include tomato sauce, applesauce, mashed potatoes, soups, and homemade baby food. - What do the 3 interchangeable blades do?
They provide different textures. Use the fine disc for smooth purees and sauces, the medium disc for general mashing and straining, and the coarse disc for chunkier results. - Can I use this food mill for tomatoes to remove skins and seeds?
Yes. A food mill is a popular tool for tomato processing because it helps separate seeds and skins from the pulp for smoother sauce and passata. - Do I need to cook food before using a food mill?
For best results, yes. Cooked fruits and vegetables pass through the mill more easily and produce a smoother puree, especially for potatoes, apples, and tomatoes. - Is a food mill better than a blender for baby food and purees?
A food mill can be better when you want to strain out skins and seeds and avoid incorporating extra air. It also offers more control over texture without relying on electricity. - How do I choose the right disc for mashed potatoes?
For creamy mashed potatoes, many cooks prefer the fine or medium disc. If you like a more rustic texture, the coarse disc can be a better fit.
