With all of today’s modern conveniences, sometimes it is nice to get back to basics.  One such area that lends itself to this is the kitchen.  Somewhere along the line people have forgotten what it is like to actually get in the kitchen and make a meal from scratch.  This means actually getting your hands a little dirty and not using the pre-packaged meals from Trader Joe’s and stuffing them in the oven, but using appliances like a stainless steel food mill to prepare and cook items.

It can be argued that some of the modern appliances have made life easier for everyone to cook, but at the same time the actual artistry of making a great dinner has been lost.  While just about anyone can now make a very good meal for the family to eat, the truly great meals come from old fashioned preparation.  Take something as simple as mashed potatoes and you will soon realize what we are talking about.

It is pretty common today for people to make up their potatoes and then throw them into a mixing bowl and blend them to death before they put them out on the table.  Who wants pureed potatoes?  This is not true mashed potatoes, yet people everywhere are putting this horrible mix out on the table and portraying it as something that it is not.

No, mashed potato purists everywhere need to stand up and insist that mashed potatoes need to be mashed, not blended.  How you do this is with a good old fashioned food mill.  After you boil your potatoes, you can blend them with your mix of spices, cream and butter into the food mill to create true ecstasy for the potato lover deep inside of us all.  They will be smashed down and run through the food mill, but there will still be just a hint of a piece of potato here and there to remind you that you are indeed easting potatoes and not soup for dinner.

Truth be told, blended mashed potatoes just don’t hold a candle to mashed potatoes that are made like this.  When they are blended down like that, they simply lose some of what makes mashed potatoes taste so good.  The same can be said for many other products where blending or a food processor is just overkill.  There are times to puree food and then there are times to use a food mill.

If you are a purist, you can use one of the many hand food mills that are on the market.  If you insist on having some of the convenience of modern technology, there are also some very nice electric food mills that you can purchase that will give the same result without the physical exertion that a true food mill may require.

Every now and then you have to look at modern technology and laugh.  Sometimes newer and faster is not better.  In cooking, this is usually the case as nothing beats good old fashioned hearty food.  You can hardly make that in a blender!

Everyone is more health conscious these days and there is a very good reason to be this way.  America as a whole is obese and one of the main reasons is the food that we eat.  Sure we don’t exercise enough and our kids spend too much time playing video games, but our diets play an integral part in our health.  Unfortunately, most of us learn bad eating habits before we make our own choices.  You can correct that with your children by using a baby food mill for their meals.

Have you ever looked at the label of a regular bottle of baby food?  Those so called healthy little meals are packed with just about everything we as adults try to avoid.  This is processed food that needs preservatives in order to remain safe to eat, but in the process the flavor of the food is changed dramatically.

If you don’t believe it, give your child a sample of their favorite baby food.  Now make the same food and puree it and you can be all but guaranteed that they will make a face and refuse to eat it.  This is because the food that they are eating is loaded with salt, sugar and other little goodies that are not meant to actually be in there if you were cooking the item yourself.  Then parents wonder why junior refuses to eat those green beans that he loved when he was a baby.  The reason is that they are used to food that is hardly an honest representation of what they will be eating once they go to normal solid foods.

Now the way to avoid all of this is by making your own baby food with a baby food mill.  There is simply no reason that you cannot feed the baby real food as long as it is prepared properly.  Not only is your baby eating healthier, but you are also saving a ton of money by making your own food versus paying the high price of the individual bottles of baby food.

In addition to all of this, your child is getting used to what real food tastes like. The transition from baby food to table food will be much easier and you are assured that the bowl will not go flying across the room in fine Stuey fashion when you put down those carrots.  Instead, the child will learn to like food the way it is supposed to taste like instead of the “candy” version that the baby food manufacturers are serving up.

There is nothing like the pure taste of food and using a baby food mill to prepare your child’s meals will enable them to enjoy these flavors very early on in life.  Not only that, but they are more than likely to continue to eat healthy and put up less of a fight when they finally get moved to table food.  Your choice, feed them the bottled garbage that will have them begging for French toast every night at dinner or use a baby food mill and get them used to the real flavors of food.
