- Ideal for removing the seeds from cooked tomatoes, removing pulp or larger pieces from foods, making any type of purée, and making mashed potatoes
- This piece of kitchen equipment bridges the gap between a sieve and the electric blender or food processor
- For those not familiar, a food mill consists of three parts: a bottomless bowl, an interchangeable bottom with holes like those in a colander, and a crank
- The crank carries a bent metal blade which mashes the food and pushes it through the bottom as the crank is turned
- Use this utensil for mashing and sieving soft foods
