Potato Mashers
The potato masher is an indispensable tool for mashing soft foods into an even mush with no lumps. It is essential for preparing gnocchi or mashed potato, allowing you to mash the potato easily and to prevent any lumps from forming. Depending on the size of the holes, it can also be useful for mashing pulses, separating the pulp from the skins, or for reducing boiled vegetables into a creamy soup, such as pumpkin or courgettes. The potato masher can also be used to make perfectly formed hamburgers. All you need to do is line the bottom of the masher with a disk of greaseproof paper, insert the minced meat and then press down gently until you obtain the desired thickness. And much more... the potato masher is also perfect for working boiled chestnuts to prepare a delicious Monte Bianco cocktail or for giving the distinctive shape to Romagna Passatelli pasta. It is available both in the traditional model and in a version featuring two interchangeable disks that allow you to work ingredients of different textures and shapes as efficiently as possible.
