I bought this to replace a 5 qt. KitchenAid Artisan

I bought this to replace a 5 qt. KitchenAid Artisan. I do a little cake decorating and I needed something that would handle large batches of buttercream icing a couple times per week, as well as general kitchen use. It was a toss up between this one and the KitchenAid Pro. I was a little nervous about spending so much money on something that doesn't have the solid reputation that KitchenAid mixers have, but I'm so glad I took the chance! This is a wonderful mixer!! In my opinion, it is far superior to the KitchenAids in almost every way. I would recommend this to anyone.
Pros:
It handles large and small quantities equally well.
The more powerful motor is wonderful! It handles lots of heavy dough and icing with ease.
The splash guard forms a tight seal. Not air tight, but when I make huge batches of buttercream icing (using 5# of powdered sugar) it keeps in all the powdered sugar dust and I don't have quite so much to clean up afterward. In fact, I have very little to clean up!
If you start on a high speed it gets faster gradually so that you don't end up splashing what is in the bowl all over you.
The timer turns the mixer off automatically when time's up. No more over mixing!!
The paddle, whisk and dough hook are dishwasher safe.
I can't say anything about the attachments as I don't have any yet, but I love that I can add a blender or chopper to it without having to by the whole small appliance.
Cons:
It is mostly plastic and therefore much lighter than the KitchenAid. I haven't found this to be a problem at all with it walking of wobbling like I thought I would. But, the plastic body makes it look kind of cheap.
It is louder than my KitchenAid was.

Overall, the cons are very minimal. I've not found them to be enough of a bother to skew my opinion of the mixer. I absolutely LOVE this mixer and I will never go back to KitchenAid!

I've been a long-time fan of the KitchenAid mixer. My grandmother has been using the same KitchenAid mixer since the late 50s, and it's still going strong. I was thrilled to get a KitchenAid "Ultra-Power" mixer as a gift about seven years ago, and it worked great for occasional use. Over the past couple of years I've been doing more and more baking, and about a year ago I began making my own bread. After about six months of using my KitchenAid to knead two loaves of whole-wheat bread every week or so, it made a terrible grinding noise, and stopped working. I decided I'd better buy a new KitchenAid with a more powerful motor, and went online to see which was recommended. Much to my surprise, the reviews for the KitchenAid were no longer as positive as they had been. People were complaining about a decrease in quality and customer service. The biggest complaint was that some metal parts had been replaced by plastic, and while it sounded as if the company had recently started making the parts out of metal again, people were giving tips on how to determine if the model you were purchasing had the metal or plastic gearboxes. On top of that, Cooks Illustrated ranked the Cuisinart mixer above KitchenAid in a March 2008 review.

I did more research and found that the warranty was much better on the Cuisinart than on the KitchenAid. So, nervously, I decided to switch from what I had always considered to be the top brand, and I bought the Cuisinart.

My first impressions were mixed. I immediately liked the way the mixer looked, but I was nervous about it, because the body and the mixing paddles are much lighter in weight than on the KitchenAid. It lacks the solid, all-metal feel of the KitchenAid.

After combining the crumbs and spices you choose, place the aggregate into a large plastic bag.

Dip each porkchop in a aggregate of egg and milk. Allow any excess to drip off before placing one pork chop at a time into the plastic bag. Shake the bag to wholly coat the pork chop before placing on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with a Cooking spray. Place the baking sheet in an oven that has been preheated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the porkchops for roughly 35 minutes, depending on the thickness.

You will know they are ready when they are golden brown in color. Remove the pan for the oven. Before serving, cover the baking pan loosely with foil, allowing them to rest for 3 to 5 minutes. For tender and juicy porkchops don't neglect this step.

A Good Gumbo Recipe!

A Good Gumbo Recipe!


I am going to give you my gumbo recipe. I learned to cook from my mother and grandmother who were born and raised in New Orleans and surely knew how to cook. Most of the time, you could not get them to write down their recipes because they used a "pinch" of this and "just sufficient of that" and "two fingers of water" and so on. This method is a mixture of both of their recipes which I have added to over the years. My brother cooks his gumbo a puny dissimilar than mine and like all good cooks; he will tell you his is better.

A Good Gumbo Recipe!

You need a large pot. I like to use Magnalite brand pots which are what my mother always used for everything. I have cooked gumbo in other types of pots and it still tastes good. The magic of any good Creole dish is the "roux". This is flour which is browned to a rich mahogany color. A lot of population try manufacture the roux while they are Cooking the vegetables in the bacon grease. My mother taught me to brown the flour first and then you can add it as you cook your gumbo. The advanTAGe is you don't have to worry about burning all your seasonings and you don't have to Watch all things as closely.

She would take a five pound bag of flour and brown it in a flat pan in the oven. This is only good for population who do a lot of Cooking and even I don't cook that much. I take a large Teflon frying pan and put in a cup or two of flour and under a medium to high heat gradually brown the flour. I permanently stir the four with a spoon or spatula and it will brown quite nicely in a matter of ten minutes or less. You can get it as brown as you want and if it burns, you have not wasted all your seasoning. surely there are a lot of gravy and roux mixes on the shop now and they work quite well as a roux so you can substitute that if you like. A brand named Tony Chacherie's is a good choice. I buy a large package of gravy mix at Sam's when I am feeling lazy. This would not meet with my mother or grandmother's approval however.

Here is the method and Bon Apetit. Creole Gumbo

Recipe shared by Edgar M. Dapremont Jr.

1c. Chopped celery 1 large onion, chopped 1 large green bell pepper, chopped 4 tsp. File (if you can't get this, it will still be a very good gumbo) 2 toes minced or chopped garlic 1 cup of all purpose flour 3/4 cup bacon grease 1 lb. Andouille sausage (a Cajun sausage) - if you can't get this use a good smoked sausage 1 tbsp. Sugar 1/8 cc Tabasco 1/2 teaspoon Tony Chachere's seasoning 3 Qt. Water 6 beef bouillon cubes 4 bay leaves 1/2 tsp. Dried leaf thyme 1(14 1/2-oz.) can stewed tomatoes 1 small can tomato sauce 2 (10oz.) icy cut okra, thawed 2 tblsp. White vinegar 1 or 2 lbs. Of lump crabmeat 3 lbs. Shrimp 2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

Roux: Add flour to 3/4 cup melted bacon grease in large heavy skillet and stir well to blend. Cook this over low medium heat stirring permanently until it becomes a dark mahogany rich brown color. This will take 20 to 30 minutes and it must be Watched continuously and you must continue to stir until terminated or flour will burn.

Alternate method of making ready Roux: I take the flour and brown it on a high fire while stirring permanently until it is a rich brown. I make the roux by then adding the brown flour to the bacon grease and then I just add the processed vegetables. I use brown flour a lot in gravies and soups so I have a big package of brown flour always available. (My mother browns 5 lbs. Of flour in enlarge in her oven and then keeps it in the freezer for whenever she needs it. Both methods of manufacture a roux work well but you just have to make sure it is good and rich brown.

Vegetables: Process the onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic in a Food processor. Add sausage and the processed ingredients to the roux and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring permanently to saute the vegetables. Set this aside.

Boil Water: While making ready the roux and vegetables start the 3 quarts water to boiling in a large Dutch oven or Gumbo pot at least 6 Qt. Size. Add beef bouillon to boiling water to originate a beef broth. Consolidate roux mixture to boiling broth and stir. Sacrifice heat and add bay leaves, thyme, tomatoes, tomato sauce, sugar, salt, Tony's seasoning, and Tabasco to boiling mixture. Simmer on low heat for 1 hour. At the 45 puny mark, add 2 teaspoons file to gumbo and stir.

Okra: While the gumbo is Cooking, cook the okra in a large frying pan with the 2-tablespoon of vinegar for about 15 or 20 minutes. Drain the fat off the okra and set aside.

Crabmeat, Shrimp, Okra: After the gumbo has been cooking for about 1 hour, add crabmeat, shrimp, okra, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for about 45 minutes more after adding these last ingredients. At the end add 2 more teaspoons of file.

Serve over rice.

ComMents from Edgar: The gumbo can be icy or refrigerated and many population like it best the next day. Bon Apetit!
