Cookware, Bakeware & Gadgets Discussions

I could not do without my Kitchenaid stand mixer. Not only does it do the best job of mixing ingredients, but it also saves so much time because I can get other things done while it's mixing. I haven't used a hand mixer since I bought this.

I love my Kitchenaid mixer too! I've had it for years. Do you use any attachments? I occassionally make homemade pasta by hand (yes I'm Italian) and thought about buying some attachments to the Kitchenaid to save time and a little elbow grease. Have you used any of these attachments?

I love tupperware....I like the microwaveable stuff.  We always have leftovers and tupperware usually last, if something happens to it usually they will replace it free.

I use the pasta attachments. My husband bought them for me last year and I've been making homemade pasta since then. I also have the food grinder attachment. I used to use it a lot to make baby food.

   I am a big baker, on my days off, I love to cook and bake, my wife loves it when I have supper all ready for her when she gets home from work, I try to make healthy things, like pork and chicken dishes, but I also love to bake cookies, pies, cakes, and I even have made a few batches of different types of biscotti, which my wife loves to eat with her chai.  I love my hand mixer, and I always use my measuring spoons and plastic measuring cups.  I am the type of person who loves to tweek a recipe to my own individual tastes.

 

I agree with the Kitchen Aid mixer.  I inherited one from a relative (she got a new one and gave me her old one). I love it!

But another thing I cannot bake without are my silicone baking mats.  My cookies never burn and always come out perfect.  And I never have to grease my cookie sheets anymore which is a huge plus.  They are expensive but well worth the investment.

My boyfriend got me a kitchenAid mixer for christmas last year and I love it! We're both hunters so I would love to get a meat grinder attachment for it! MMM vension jerky!

Baking first and foremost is the KitchenAid Mixer. What did we do without it?

I also just got the Cuisinart 4 cup food chopper. Wow - what an amazing tool! I use nuts a lot in my baking (brownies, breakfast pastries, etc.) and get so sick of the chopping. This little guy makes perfectly sized pieces in about 4 seconds (am not exaggerating!).

While not a supply, I add cinnamon to many recipes. Anyone else have a "signature spice" that they can't resist throwing in?
