Food Grinder and Strainer Set

KitchenAid Food Grinder and Fruit and Vegetable Strainer Set with 2 Grinding Plates

All You Need for Delicious Homemade Meals

The KitchenAid Food Grinder and Strainer Set will have you preparing all kinds of exciting dishes from scratch. It takes on the demanding preparation, leaving you with the creative part. Between the two attachments, you can make everything from vegetable burgers, pâtés and meatballs to smooth salsas, purées, sauces and jams.

Use the food grinder on its own to process meat, fish, vegetables, cheese, nuts and bread, or combine it with the fruit and vegetable strainer for beautifully smooth results from soft fruit and cooked vegetables.

Let Your Stand Mixer Do the Hard Work

The set is simple to assemble and connects to the multipurpose attachment hub of any KitchenAid stand mixer. Use the grinder by itself or fit the strainer components to the included grinder body to expand what your mixer can do.

Set the mixer to speed 4 and watch ingredients emerge with an even texture, ready for homemade meat or vegetable burgers, meatballs, breadcrumbs, pâtés and savoury spreads. Add the strainer to prepare smooth fruit and vegetable purées, jams or sauces while remaining in control of the ingredients and flavour combinations.

Choose a Fine or Coarse Grind

With the food grinder, you can choose the ingredients you enjoy and create homemade versions of familiar favourites. Experiment by adding parsley, garlic, rosemary, chilli or other seasonings directly to your mixture.

The fine 4.5 mm grinding plate is ideal for cooked meats, pâtés and spreads, as well as hard cheese and fresh breadcrumbs. Choose the coarse 6 mm plate for raw meat destined for burgers or chilli, or vegetables for chunky salsas and sauces.

The stainless steel knife and two interchangeable plates also let you experiment with with fish, fruit, nuts, herbs, beans and vegetables for recipes such as falafel and vegetable patties. For the cleanest results when grinding meat, make sure it is extremely cold or partially frozen.

Stress-Free Straining for the Smoothest Dishes

The fruit and vegetable strainer works with the grinder body to break down soft fruit and cooked vegetables. The strainer cone separates the smooth mixture from unwanted skins, seeds, stems and other fibrous pieces, while the strainer shield and splash lid help guide the finished food neatly into your bowl.

Use it with ingredients such as tomatoes, grapes, raspberries and citrus fruit, or prepare homemade apple sauce, pumpkin purée, coulis, jams and smooth pasta sauces. Place one bowl beneath the strainer shield to collect the finished mixture and a smaller container beneath the open end to catch the separated waste.

Everything You Need for a Thorough Job

Alongside the grinder body, stainless steel knife and two grinding plates, the set includes a food pusher that safely guides ingredients towards the mechanism. The removable food tray keeps prepared ingredients close at hand, making it easier to work through recipes in organised batches.

For straining, the set provides the long grind screw and shaft assembly, strainer cone, strainer shield and splash lid. These pieces connect to the grinder body, so there is no need to purchase a separate foundation attachment.

Straightforward Cleaning After Every Recipe

Once you have finished, disassemble the grinder and strainer for thorough cleaning. The food pusher, collar, removable tray, strainer cone, strainer shield and splash lid can be washed in the top rack of the dishwasher.

Hand-wash the grinder housing, standard grind screw, grinding plates and stainless steel knife in warm, soapy water. The strainer’s long grind screw and shaft assembly must also be washed by hand. Dry every component thoroughly before reassembling or storing the set, ready for your next homemade creation.
