I use a food processor all the time. Why spend several minutes
grating a block of cheese, let alone the wear and tear it does on your
knuckles, when you can do it in seconds in a food processor? I also
have a pressure canner/cooker that I use for canning green beans and
tomatoes. The one common kitchen appliance that I rarely use is a
mixer. I prefer to mix by hand ( with a spoon of course) so I know
everything is thoroughly incorporated. It seems like whenever I've
used an electric mixer I've had to go back and stir in the stuff that
the beater missed at the bottom of the bowl.
