Reviews
Diamond blender is capable of performing a lot of operations. Of course, he will not replace the meat grinder, but the boiled meat will grind well.
All other functions are performed quickly and efficiently, helping to prepare the most healthy, tasty and healthy dishes.
Some users liked the submersible KitchenAid of the Artisan model so much that no cooking in the kitchen can do without it now. Its owners come up with regular cocktails, smoothies, try new recipes for cream soups.
Some complain that it’s impossible to get minced meat on an Artisan blender.But I must say that the device is not adapted for the production of a large amount of minced meat in one session. Medium portions can be successfully obtained.
It is necessary to cut the meat smaller, free from the veins, cartilage and bones, wash and slightly dry, then the power of the blender will be enough to process it.
