Mother’s Helper: Magimix

I love my kitchen. When I’ve had a hard day or am super stressed over something, I mosey on into the kitchen and whip something up. What makes my time in the kitchen a little more fun are the fantastic tools at the ready. I have a ton of single task items, but the true stars in my kitchen are the hard working multipurpose tools.

I recently received a Magimix by Robot-Coupe, a multifunction 16-cup food processor that is exclusive to Chefs Catalog and this thing is a beast! First it comes with three separate sized bowls, which comes in handy when I need to make a large batch of salsa or smoothies for the whole family or when I need to just chop a cup of almonds for a tart crust. If you’re creating a complex dish, the three bowls can become invaluable, with not having to stop and clean your bowl in between steps. Just use one of the alternate bowls depending on the size of the job!

The Magimix processors were created by a country that leads the world in culinary advances; France. You can find these stellar products in more than 60 countries and are favored by top chefs, culinary schools, food writers and amazing home cooks.

So what all can this multifunction food processor do? Chop, crush and blend. It has a dough blade for heavy pasta and bread doughs as well as brioche and pastry. Slice, press citrus, whisk and grate. It even has a special attachment for making smoothies, pancake batter and soups. I am sure there are many more things that the Magimix can do that I haven’t attempted yet. This unit, exclusive to Chefs Catalog, includes the Juice Extractor attachment and Creative Discs.

In addition to all the functions it holds, the Magimix is also incredibly easy to use. There are only three buttons; Auto, Pulse and Stop. The lack of dials and buttons ensure that you can have hands at the ready for adding to the machine, let’s say when you are making some silky hummus.

So this year, instead of buying just another kitchen gadget for mom to add to the counter, why not get her THE ONE tool that can replace so many that she already has and free up some countertop space so she can showcase that adorable macaroni art you can’t believe she held onto all these years.
