Mine is a basic white plastic model.<br />You look like your's is the Rolls Royce of ricers.<br />Maybe it's time I upgraded. <br />Hopefully you're not snowed in... we're currently are having quite a few flurries.Neesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-77163341640282711112016-02-14T07:21:26.496+00:002016-02-14T07:21:26.496+00:00making much faster using a potato ricer because yo...making much faster using a potato ricer because you can bypass peeling your spuds. I usually rice them straight onto my plate then top with butter.

It did not come apart so I found it a pain to clean afterwards and gave it away. Might try again with a fancier version.Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354350096358468967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-76953016259135936622016-02-13T17:40:17.310+00:002016-02-13T17:40:17.310+00:00Have an old one found at car boot sale, red wooden...Have an old one found at car boot sale, red wooden handle nicely worn, likely from the 40's. Not only as you say, does it makes the best mashed potatoes with no lumps...they are never 'gluey' as my old way of doing them sometimes was. I sometimes put in a spoonful of cream cheese after they have been riced. OHMY!

The hotter they are the easier to push through. Then just take a fork and take out the skin. This also works on applesauce. It's smooth not chunky but again no peeling.

That last gadget, we call it a food mill, is on my wish list. And you are quite right about quality - it's worth investing in sturdy pieces. They not only last a lifetime but make for a pleasurable rather than frustrating job.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.com
