Next time I use my meat grinder, I'll give it a try. Use a large holed plate, and since grinders pass food but once the results will be very homogenous, so to produce ever finer crumbs simply pass the crumbs through again... but I've no idea what one does with fine fresh crumbs. I do know that to make fine crumbs a processer will produce a mixture of all size crumbs, but by the time there are no large crumbs there'll be mostly powder. Naturally I hope we're not talking Wonder here, I grind fresh bread crumbs all the time, from crusty breads. ---= BOYCOTT FRENCH--GERMAN (belgium) =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- Sheldon ```````````` "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation." |

Unfortunately, I can't get the image of >something other than "crumbs" coming out of it. Depending on the type of bread you may get a few 'worms' but they will fall apart as soon as you handle them. It really matters not as I don't grind fresh bread for later use... why would anyone? Most of my fresh bread crumbs will go into meat balls/loaf anyway, so the bread is the last ingredient pushed through, after the meat and the veggies, and so who cares if a stray meatloaf crumb is a bit weird. ---= BOYCOTT FRENCH--GERMAN (belgium) =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- Sheldon ```````````` "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation." |

One thing people use food processors for is pesto, and I can't understand it. It comes out tasting like the prepackaged supermarket stuff. Why bother? A mortar and pestle is the way to go. -Mike |

A Chopped Salad//Barb's Coffee Cake!
"Mike Pearce"
<snip> : I cant remember the last time I used my food processor for anything other : than making mayonnaise. It is pretty good for that. : : -Mike : : ====== I/we use ours quite a bit. I tell ya Mike, if you want a really good excuse to give yours a little exercise - make Barb's Cream Cheese Coffee Cake(s). The entire recipe can be made in your processor. Hmmm, speaking of which, I still have one in the downstairs freezer... time to bring it upstairs for breakfast this week! Below, printed without permission, is Barb's lovely, lovely coffee cake recipe. I use the second version because it makes 6 at a time - which takes the same amount of time to make 'just the one' recipe. Cyndi (remove a "b" to reply) Barb's Cream Cheese Coffee Cake 1st Place, Minnesota State Fair 1985, 1986, 1989, 1990! Second Place, 1987; not entered 1988. Bombed, 1991 Crust: 1/4 cup scalded milk 2 Tbsp sugar 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 cup butter or margarine 1 pkg. active dry yeast 1/4 cup warm water 1 egg 1-3/4 cups all purpose flour Filling: 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup sugar 1 egg 1 tsp. vanilla extract Topping: 1/2 cup butter 3/4 cup sugar 1 cup flour Combine the milk, sugar, salt, and butter. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Cool the milk mixture and add the proofed yeast to it. Add the egg and flour to the yeast mixture (dough will be soft and sticky). Place in a greased bowl and let rise until double -- about 30-45 minutes. Roll or pat dough into a circle and place in a greased 16² pizza pan. With greased fingers, shape as a pizza crust. Make filling by creaming the cheese and sugar together and adding the egg and vanilla. Pour filling evenly over crust. For topping, cut margarine (butter) into sugar and flour with pastry blender until crumbly. Sprinkle on top of filling. Let raise for 30 minutes. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes, until brown. Drizzle with powdered sugar icing. Cut into wedges. Serves 12-16. NOTES: Everything can be mixed in the food processor -- and I do. Make crumbly topping first; mix dough, then mix filling ingredients. I always use butter for topping and crust. ============= For 6 coffee cakes: Crusts: 1/2 cup scalded milk 1/4 cup sugar 1 tsp. salt 1/2 cup butter or margarine 2 pkg. active dry yeast 1/2 cup warm water 1 egg 3-1/2 cups all purpose flour -- and likely more -- up to 3/4 cup or so. Filling: 3 - 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened 1-1/2 cup sugar 3 egge 3 tsp. vanilla extract (optional: grated rind and juice of a lemon) Topping: 1 cup butter 1-1/2 cup sugar 2 cups flour I divide the dough into six parts and filling and topping accordingly, using about 1 cup filling and maybe 2/3 cup of topping. Use 8² disposable/reusable foil cake pans, available at fine stores everywhere. Bake them for about 15-20 minutes. After about 15 minutes from oven, flip them out of the pans using two cake cooling racks. Baking them near the top of your oven doesn't hurt them. Oops! I only make this in the food processor. Mix the topping first, and set it aside. Then mix the crust dough. If you have a food processor but have never mixed dough in it, do it this way: Using the steel blade in the work bowl, measure the flour into the work bowl, add the egg(s) and process for about 10-20 seconds; it will look kind of mealy maybe. Gradually add the combined liquids (milk, butter, yeast, etc., as recipe directs) with machine running until everything is mixed and doughy. It¹s a pretty sticky dough. Sometimes I add a little more flour at this point so it¹s more like bread dough and sometimes I don¹t. Mostly I do, because it's really soft and sticky otherwise. When measuring the yeast, I don¹t quite double the amount (I use about 4 teaspoons dry yeast.). Then mix the filling. When cool put them on 8² cardboard circles (or don't) from Maid of Scandinavia/Sweet Celebrations and freeze in gallon-size Glad Food Storage bags, from which you've sucked the air. They freeze well. I've served it and sold it. If you're doing it for yourself, consider cutting it into wedges before freezing, then thaw only what you'd like to eat at one time. Or, once it's frozen, cut the wedges. Others who have served it have topped it with fresh fruit topping. That's pretty good, too, although I prefer it plain. |

No, I do not expect such utter precision on an $8 salad dinner. It was beautiful, but really not necessary. Not complaining. nancy |

If I'm going to use it for chopping, etc. I still need to clean my knife and cutting board anyway so I just do it all with my knife or grater. Those things are much easier to clean. In addition I kind of like doing things by hand anyway. I use a knife to zest a lemon and I mix and knead bread dough by hand. If you like the food processor, more power to you. I'm just not that crazy about them. -Mike |

Where the hell are you getting this "mandating" stuff from? If someone likes using a food processor or any other kitchen gadget that's fine with me. I was just saying that I'm not a big fan.

I wonder... <g> I don't know that I'm quite as passionate about food processors as you seem to be, but I can imagine pulling out one of those things to slice a carrot or a cucumber. Even for slicing quantity, I'll pull out my cheap plastic mandolin which is much simpler to clean. -Mike |
