The Importance Of Mixers In Cooking

Cuisinart Mixer

Food mixers have become an integral part of the modern kitchen as they lend themselves to a variety of tasks and make cooking much easier, added to which, using your hands or tools is time-consuming and inconvenient. There are different types of mixers available in the market all with varying price tags and a range of functions and accessories, so it is necessary to choose one based on the usage. A high end mixer will usually cost more, but only because it offers a wide range of advanced features, usually only suitable for professionals and catering companies. However, there are many more cheaper options offering only the basics which are more than adequate for most people, and they cost significantly less.

Cuisinart Mixer

Food mixers are generally used for folding, beating, whipping and mixing different food ingredients. They are available in two major variations - stand mixers and hand mixers. As the name implies hand mixers are hand held while stand mixers are mounted on a stand. Depending on the usage and convenience you need to decide which type is right for you. For those who do not have much to do with mixers beyond liquidising and blending, a hand mixer will serve the purpose.

Food Mixers are a popular item in restaurants where the chefs are under constant time pressure. Food mixers are not only important for chefs and catering companies, it is just as essential for those who do cooking only for their family. This is mainly because it eases tasks and helps to prepare a variety of foods. Mixers are generally simple to use, with only the main speed settings and, in some cases, a timer.

Cooking has become one of the simplest tasks with the help of mixers. The powerful motor helps in chopping, liquidizing and blending food faster and also helps in handling even the heaviest mixtures. Mixing or chopping food items is easy with a mixer and you get a smooth, even texture.

Mixers are available in different sizes and shapes with different motor powers. It is up to an individual to decide on one of the best mixers that suits his/her cooking style and requirements. Some brands allow you to customize the mixer as per your requirements. Mixers are generally available with jars of different size to enable the cook to use each according to the quantity. Some mixers have a plain blending and liquidising option whereas a full set will have accessories which run the gamut from extracting juices of fruits and vegetables to dry grinding of hard spices. Food mixers are marvels of technology which have been resourcefully created for the convenience of the modern day cook.

Papermate Pens

The pen has a long history. The name is derived for a Latin word, 'Penna', which means feather. The idea behind how it works is derived from the ancient feather ones which had a high capillarity rate. They were dipped in ink and they would suck it up. The end of the feather stick would be sharpened and split to allow the ink to pass through as you write. This is how the modern day writing items were born since the feather ones were not very reliable.

Cuisinart Mixer

You will find many types of writing and drawing tools in the market today which come with many names like Felt, Reed, Quills, Metal nibs, Fountain, Ball points, Roller balls and the Porous Points. Others are named according to the type of nib that is attached to them for example the roller ball and ballpoint ones.

Cuisinart Mixer

The Papermate pens are ones that have a long history. The best thing that came out of them is that they are known to use some kind of instant-drying ink that does not require you to wait for all eternity for it to dry. Who would not like to use such a convenient writing instrument? This high quality aspect is what has made the Papermate pens to thrive and outdo some others in the market.

One other good thing about the Papermate type is that they can use range of different shades of different colors. The colors can either be translucent or bright depending on how you like them. You can get them from anywhere around the world either for use in your business or in school if you are a student.

Shaun T Insanity VS the P90X Workout Program - Which One is Better?

Over the next couple minutes you will learn the comparisons and differences between these two rival "workout at home" exercise programs.

Cuisinart Mixer

The P90X workout program used to be the one exercise program that everyone knew thanks to early morning and late night infomercials. Recently Beachbody added a new program to the game that to some may be considered a rival, that program is Shaun T Insanity.

Cuisinart Mixer

But which one is more intense?

Comparably they are both equal in their own rights but each workout program focuses on a different approach towards fitness.

I have personally used both programs and this gives me the rare opportunity to offer a first hand look at both the P90X workout program and Shaun T Insanity. After this article you will be fully equipped with the answers you are looking for.

Which works better? P90X or the Insanity workout?

Great questions, though it's hard to put both workout programs side by side as it's not a simple apples to apples comparison but more like apples to oranges. Both programs are capable of offering a huge physical challenge but each has it's own approach and it's own target results. I'll explain.

The P90X workout program is a 90 day system which could otherwise be considered an "at home boot camp". You will need a chin up bar, a chair, a set of dumbbells and/or bands, shoes, plus about 1 hour to 1 hour and a half 6 days a week. The 7th day is an optional stretch or complete rest day.

From first hand experience I like to look at P90X as a "all-in-one" program. It is not designed to just bulk you up, it's not going to just help you lose weight, it's not just balance, and it's not just cardio.

The P90X workout program just tosses a bit of everything into the equation. You lift heavy one day (or light if you want);, you're punching and kicking with Kenpo karate another day, and to top it off on other days you will be doing 1 and a half hours of Yoga for a complete mind/ body/ soul adventure.

You will go through three phases of 1 month each in P90X with each month switching it up. Most of the cardio, stretch, and balance routines stay the same. The difference in each phase is that you change out the resistance workouts so that your muscles are constantly challenged so they will always be receptive to the workout rather than plateauing.

Shaun T Insanity takes a completely different approach. The workout program is 60-days in length and is based solely on Plyometrics, Core, and Cardio training. You will not lift weights, you will not do chin ups, you don't need a chair, and the workouts range from 35-45 minutes the first phase to 1 hour and 15 minutes the second phase.

You will need very good shoes, preferably a mat to jump on, and near perfect form to avoid injury.

You can already see that Shaun T Insanity is different than P90X so how are the comparable?

The Insanity workout program, though shorter in length, is based on maximum effort Interval cardio. Meaning it's all about fast, powerful, and coordinated moves. You will still be doing push-ups just like in P90X but otherwise you only use your body, gravity, and will power to push through.

I am telling you from personally experience, with Insanity you literally drip buckets of sweat, seriously! Just because it's shorter than P90X doesn't mean it's not as intense.

You will not be running in one place for an hour, you are jumping around, squatting, balancing, and crunching your core. Shaun T Insanity is on the same level as P90X but the difference is you don't need extra equipment, you won't be lifting weights, and the workouts go by much faster.

Insanity is more for the leaner ripped look while P90X will allow for more muscle size and strength.

If you have already completed P90X then I will tell you this. Shaun T Insanity is like taking P90X Plyometrics, doubling the intensity, and doing it 6 days a week.

So which one is better, P90X or Shaun T Insanity?

I don't think you will find one "better than the other" but what you will find are two different approaches towards fitness.

P90X is a longer 90 day program that has longer workouts but incorporates a slower pace compared to Insanity offering more time to adapt and become stronger. Also you are lifting weights so there is more potential to gain size and muscle definition.

Shaun T Insanity is 60 days with much shorter and faster pace workouts, you won't be able to adapt as fast and you won't get great results by pausing through each workout. Insanity is a balls to the walls style workout, it's straight forward and fast but demands major motivation and energy.

Both workout programs have a "mix-it-up" style so each one changes things throughout the program so there is no monotony.

One final note, if you have knees or lower body joint issues, Insanity may not be for you. It is based on a lot of jumping and really can and will tax your knees and joints if not performed correctly. It is much higher impact compared to P90X. That is something to consider when looking at the two side by side.

Because of the approach Insanity takes I like to look at it this way. If you feel you are P90X capable and are in decent shape, if you can do push-ups, chin-ups, and if you can handle interval cardio, then either program is suitable.

If you cannot do some or all of the previously mentioned exercises then it's better to avoid Insanity until you can at least complete P90X. Insanity is not a beginner workout, so if you just stepping back into the physical fitness game, throw the ego out, start somewhere small and build up.

  • Tilt-back head for easy access to mixture

KITCHENAID ARTISAN STAND MIXER *325 watts, 10 speeds *5 qt. bowl with handle *Includes pouring shield, wire whip, flat beater and dough hook *Tilt head platform *Boxed *White

Black Friday KitchenAid KSM150PSWH Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, White Specifications

KitchenAid's Artisan stand mixer is a substantial piece of equipment: 325 watts of mixing power make child's play of creaming butter, kneading dough, and whipping cream. The kid in you will appreciate how quick and easy it is to mix up a batch of cookie dough. This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solidly constructed and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist. This model also includes a pouring shield for guiding ingredients to their proper destination, and the bowl itself locks tight to the base. Standing about 15 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman's bowling ball, this stand mixer isn't the sort of appliance you'll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged--you'll want to show it off. --Betsy Danheim

From the Manufacturer

The Artisan mixer's strong 325-watt motor delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mix large batches easily.

The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to handle large batches of heavy mixtures. Its ergonomically designed handle is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable.

Unique Mixing Action

The beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise; moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl. This unique mixing action creates a thorough blend of ingredients and eliminates the need to rotate the bowl.

Multiple Speeds

10 speeds allow the user to select the right speed for the mixing job; from very high to very slow stir. It's easy to select the precise speed needed for a perfect mix.

Versatile Accessories

The flat beater, dough hook, and the professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. The flat beater is the ideal accessory for mixing normal to heavy batters. From cake mixes to firm cookie dough, the flat beater mixes quickly and thoroughly.

The dough hook mixes and kneads yeast dough, saving both time and the effort of hand-kneading. The wire whip incorporates the maximum amount of air in whipped mixtures for fluffier whipped cream and angel food cakes.

All attachments are solidly constructed, and attach easily to the stand mixer.

Easy Clean Up

The pouring shield fits around the top of the bowl and prevents ingredient splash-out. The chute makes it convenient and easy to add ingredients.

The tilt-back mixer head allows for easy access to bowl and beaters. A lock lever holds the mixer head securely in place and the bowl fastens tightly to the base.


Optional Attachments

Optional attachments (sold separately) complete the package to make cooking a pleasure. From citrus juicer to sausage stuffer, KitchenAid stand mixers can handle just about any job in the kitchen.

Chemical Composition of Pepper Sprays

The first known development of aerosol defensive sprays first originated in 1969 with a company named Aerko International Corporation (A.I.C.). The original goal was to produce an aerosol spray that would be packaged into the housing of a small flashlight. The chemical ingredient of choice was, Oleoresin Capsicum (OC). OC, is a red pepper oil that's main purpose is to cause coughing, a burning sensation of the skin, and watering in the eyes. The purpose for its development was to ward off potential dog attacks or person to person aggression. Dogs presumably are less affected by traditional tear gas.

Cuisinart Mixer

Choice Of Product: Effectiveness issues with this chemical "stopped" any further development for the next twenty five years, by Aerko. In 1994, interest in developing a self defense spray was renewed. Aerko International was again asked to redesign a product which would now include the chemical agents of: Chloracetophenone (CN) and Orthochlorobenzalmalonitrile (CS).

Cuisinart Mixer

CN, "chloacetophenone," is classified as a "lachrymator" which attacks the tear ducts (lacrimal duct) causing the eyes to water and have a burning sensation.

CS, "orthochlorobenzalmalonitrile" is an irritant that causes tearing, severe burning of the eyes, stimulation of the nerve endings, advanced secretions of the mucous membranes, and the sensation for restricted breathing.

Consistent military testing by both the United States and Great Britain indicated that it took less CS exposure than the amount of CN to achieve the same effect. It was concluded that CS is a safer irritant than CN, because it took a far less amounts of CN to reach a potential lethal level than did CS.

The chemical composition of defensive sprays includes: CN, CS, and OC.

CS (Orthochlorobenzalmalonitrile)
CN (Alphachloroacetaphenone)
OC (Oleoresin Capsicum)

CS and CN, alone are not as affective as when they are enjoined with OC. The three chemicals compositions working in unison together will act like-a-rock embankment between the perpetrator and the defender. Pepper Spray, which equates to the chemical "OC", has the effect on so-called "hard-liners" of hitting the proverbial wall, when sprayed full face with OC pepper spray. It stops them cold in their tracks, no questions asked. A well-placed (full-faced) blast of OC pepper spray, they will stop what they are doing. These individuals lose their ability for concentration. The so-called "hard liners" alluded to as impervious to the effects of CS and CN, are not resistant to the affects of OC red pepper. This includes inebriated individuals, on drugs, or psychotic.

The primary aspect of interest was that the product needed to be effective. There are many different chemical compositions used in the development of Pepper Sprays. The following chemicals are the bases for many of the defensive sprays available on the market today:

* CS (Orthochlorobenzalmalonitrile)

* CN (Alphachloroacetaphenone)

* OC (Oleoresin Capsicum)

1. One finalizing conclusion was reached that a stream pattern was far more likely to achieve. It's goal than a mist pattern application of the chemical upon the intended target.

2. The surface area of the target needs to be the face of the perpetrator to be fully effective. Quick penetration of the chemical upon the breathing apparatus of the perpetrator is necessary to achieve the maximum result of incapacitating the person.

3. A third dimension of this product is that an invisible skin coloring dyes the skin.

4. UV Dyes marks the perpetrator and may aid in identification once apprehended.

5. The UV Dyes only become visible under ultra violet lamps for up to 48 hours.

6. In order to maintain constant pressure within the aerosol can, a liquefied agent had to be into the canister. The liquefied propellant boils to maintain constant pressure in the canister.

This chemical action takes place after every use. A ballistic forceful-like characteristic
reaction result

Size and Capacity: The size of the canister ranges from 1/2 ounce canisters for personal usage up to 9 ounce canisters for the bear pepper spray category. Wildfire 18% Pepper Spray offers 1 pound canisters of pepper spray. There is key chain sized defensive sprays or larger that can be easily carried on a belt or in a purse. Even small canisters of spray have enough chemical agents in them to be effective if and when a direct application to the perpetrator's face is administered.

Spray Pattern: Mists are known to be too negatively affected by the shift in wind current. Trying to deliver an incapacitating amount of material to the surface area of the advancing perpetrator was aggravated, by the concern to avoid the change of "blow back" upon the chemical administrator. OC pepper is most effective when the spray hits the perpetrator squarely in the eyes and nose, so they haven't any choice about inhaling its properties.

Pepper Spray Stream is most effective when the perpetrator is sprayed directly in the eyes and nose. Pepper Spray Stream takes longer to affect the perpetrator. Pepper Spray Stream does have a good range of effectiveness.

Pepper spray mists have a shorter range of effectiveness than the pepper spray stream. Wind currents have a negative accuracy ratio in comparison to the pepper spray stream. Pepper
spray mist is inhaled instantly upon direct exposure to the nose and or mouth than a pepper spray stream.

A 6-8 foot range is plenty since that is where most personal assaults will take place. Most defensive sprays are also classified by number of one second bursts. A good 1-2 second burst will disable almost any assailant.

CS and CN, alone are not as effective as when they are enjoined with OC pepper. The three chemicals composition works in unison together, and will act like-a-rock embankment between the perpetrator and the defender.

**The two defining factors that need to be understood are that, the range of distance the product is rated to be effective in, and the number on one second bursts the canister contains.

In order for this self defense equipment to work for you, it must be carried at all times, wherever you go and practice using your chosen implement of self defense. Because your car keys are not always with you, have a second spray on your person at all times, for a backup.

Hives - Causes and Relief

People who suffer from hives know how uncomfortable it can be to have an outbreak. Hives are also called urticaria and are an outbreak of pale red bumps, patches or welts that are swollen on the skin. They can appear suddenly and are caused by either allergies or other reasons. Some people will have hives appear anywhere on the body including ears, throat, lips, tongue, ears or face. The size of the hives can also vary from person to person. Some people get smaller size hives and others can have large hives. Sometimes, they can join together and form larger areas that are called plaques.

Cuisinart Mixer

Hives can last anywhere from a few hours up to a few days before they begin to start showing signs of fading and becoming less apparent. Hives are caused by a response to histamine, which is when blood plasma leaks out of the blood vessels and into the skin. The histamine that is released is a chemical. There are also allergic reactions to things and certain chemicals that can be found in certain kinds of foods, insect bites or stings, exposure to sunlight and even some medicines.

Cuisinart Mixer

In some cases, it can be very difficult to determine what caused the hives. There are some things that you should avoid if you are having an outbreak of hives that include hot water, and use lukewarm water in place of it, try to use only gentle and mild cleansers, use cool compresses on the affected areas of the hives and try to work and sleep in a room with a cool temperatures.

There are certain symptoms that you may experience that you should contact your doctor for right away if you start to experience them with an outbreak of hives. If you are suffering from dizziness, wheezing, difficulty in breathing, tightness in the chest and any swelling of the tongue, lips or on your face, call your doctor. If you know what causes your outbreaks of hives, you can try to avoid those situations. However, some people are not sure what triggers the hives, and makes it very difficult to know what to avoid.

Hives are a very common allergy that affects a lot of people. Some people may only have hives on occasion and they may not last very long, while others have more frequent cases of hives and they may last for days. For some, they know what causes the hives to come out and others are not able to figure out what causes them. You may have only hives as your allergy, or it is possible to have other types of allergies along with hives.

Are You a Gourmet?

What exactly does it mean to be a gourmet? Does watching public television cooking shows on Saturday morning while folding the laundry count? How about being fascinated with Julia Child and having all of her cookbooks on your Amazon wish list? Knowing what zest, garam marsala and charcuterie mean, does this qualify you as being a gourmet? Where did the term come from and what exactly does it mean?

Cuisinart Mixer

A gourmet is someone with a discriminating palate who is savvy when it comes to fine food and drink. The word comes from the French word groumet which defines a person in charge of the wines at a meal. While this definition is a start, most people think they have a discriminating palate, but discriminating between a Big Mac and a Whopper probably doesn't count. What exactly are gourmets discriminating about? Who decides what is and isn't gourmet? From my research, I have come up with three things that qualify a person to call themselves a gourmet. While not an exhaustive list, qualifying in each of these three categories is a good indication that you can call yourself a gourmet.

Cuisinart Mixer

If you still don't own a blender because you are saving up for a Waring or refuse to brown your bagels in anything other than a Dualit toaster, you are good in the first category of gourmet, knowing your equipment. Note that I don't say you need to own this equipment to be a gourmet, just know what it is and have a sincere desire to own it all someday, like when you win the lottery and can actually afford it. A few of the necessities in a gourmet kitchen include a Cuisinart food processor, Emilie Henry bakers, All-Clad pots and pans, Viking range, SubZero built in refrigerator, Kitchenaid mixer, Espressione espresso machine, Wusthof knives, and a Polder thermometer and timer. You will also need to include fine china, silver cutlery and beautiful table linens. Doing some calculations from the Williams Sonoma site (which should be one of your favorite places to shop), a fully equipped gourmet kitchen including service for 8 would come to over ,000.00 This figure doesn't even start to cover the many food items you should have.

That brings us to our next category, food. Do you know terms such as foie gras, sevruga, gravlax, fleur de sel, truffles (not the chocolate kind) and herbes de provence? Have you ever eaten any of them? If you can answer yes to most of these, you are a definite gourmet. A good gourmet kitchen will be stocked with the finest wines, caviars, cheeses, produce, meats, breads and pastries. It will also have multitudes of herbs and spices as well as liqueurs and natural extracts. Hundreds of volumes of cookbooks are also a necessity and must include authors such as Jacques Pepin, Simone Beck, James Beard and of course, Julia.

The last area that defines a gourmet is drive. This means wanting to constantly learn more about fine foods and wines. Taking vacations to France and Italy are a start as well as visiting wineries, fish markets and farmers markets everywhere you go. Food should be an obsession, not just a past time. Magazines such as Saveur, Cuisine, Cook's Illustrated, Fine Cooking, Gourmet and Bon Appetit should dot the landscape of your home. You should also have a strong desire to take cooking classes and cooking vacations and your ultimate dream would be to one day attend "Le Cordon Bleu" cooking school in Paris. Yes, knowing French is a strong plus.

If you can say you qualify in even two of these categories, I would say you are a budding gourmet. Three would mean you are definitely a gourmet. Now that you have qualified yourself as such, don't hesitate to share it with others. Remember, however, that they may want you to actually cook something for them since they assume all gourmets can cook. This, however, was not one of the qualifying factors, so don't feel pressured if actually using your gourmet items scares you. Instead invite them to a gourmet restaurant and correct their pronunciations of items on the menu. Knowing the equipment, understanding the names and tastes of the foods and having the desire to cook someday is all you need to be a gourmet. Besides, who has time to cook when you are so busy learning to be a gourmet?

  • Tilt-back head for easy access to mixture

Black Friday KitchenAid KSM150PSIC Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Ice Overview

Powerful 325-watt motor mixer, with 10 speeds.

Black Friday KitchenAid KSM150PSIC Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Ice Specifications

KitchenAid's Artisan stand mixer is a substantial piece of equipment: 325 watts of mixing power make child's play of creaming butter, kneading dough, and whipping cream. The kid in you will appreciate how quick and easy it is to mix up a batch of cookie dough. This model comes with three attachments: a flat beater for making batter, meat loaf, and all textures in-between; a wire whip for egg whites, mayonnaise, and more air-infused creations; and a hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs. All three are solidly constructed and easily secured to the beater shaft with a simple twist. This model also includes a pouring shield for guiding ingredients to their proper destination, and the bowl itself locks tight to the base. Standing about 15 inches high, jutting out a foot, and weighing more than a grown woman's bowling ball, this stand mixer isn't the sort of appliance you'll wipe down and put away. Better to find a square foot of free counter space for easy access; besides, this machine is as pretty as it is rugged--you'll want to show it off. --Betsy Danheim

From the Manufacturer

The Artisan mixer's strong 325-watt motor delivers the power to handle the heaviest mixtures, and mix large batches easily.

The 5-quart polished stainless steel bowl with ergonomic handle is big enough to handle large batches of heavy mixtures. Its ergonomically designed handle is contoured to fit the hand and makes lifting the bowl more comfortable.

Unique Mixing Action

The beater spins clockwise as the shaft spins counter clockwise; moving the beater to 67 different points around the bowl. This unique mixing action creates a thorough blend of ingredients and eliminates the need to rotate the bowl.

Multiple Speeds

10 speeds allow the user to select the right speed for the mixing job; from very high to very slow stir. It's easy to select the precise speed needed for a perfect mix.

Versatile Accessories

The flat beater, dough hook, and the professional wire whip add to the versatility of the mixer. The flat beater is the ideal accessory for mixing normal to heavy batters. From cake mixes to firm cookie dough, the flat beater mixes quickly and thoroughly.

The dough hook mixes and kneads yeast dough, saving both time and the effort of hand-kneading. The wire whip incorporates the maximum amount of air in whipped mixtures for fluffier whipped cream and angel food cakes.

All attachments are solidly constructed, and attach easily to the stand mixer.

Easy Clean Up

The pouring shield fits around the top of the bowl and prevents ingredient splash-out. The chute makes it convenient and easy to add ingredients.

The tilt-back mixer head allows for easy access to bowl and beaters. A lock lever holds the mixer head securely in place and the bowl fastens tightly to the base.


Optional Attachments

Optional attachments (sold separately) complete the package to make cooking a pleasure. From citrus juicer to sausage stuffer, KitchenAid stand mixers can handle just about any job in the kitchen.

Heavy Duty Blender

Most blenders work for exactly what you want them to do, making malts and shakes. The one thing that some blenders have a problem with is the act of crushing ice or other hard objects thrown in. This is where it helps to have a heavy duty blender.

Cuisinart Mixer

When a person starts looking at buying a blender for the most part they just go out and purchase a pretty cheap one at the local Wal-Mart. Unfortunately, this is not always the best way to go about picking out any product. Now the first step to picking out a blender is to look at the statistics. You will easily be able to find thing such as horsepower, RPM (rotations per minute), and other features. Obviously higher horsepower and RPM means that the blade spins faster are should allow the blender to crush better. This is true except that more often than not the reason that a blender does not crush well is because the ice never gets pulled into the blades.

Cuisinart Mixer

This is where finding product reviews will be most important. There are many places where a consumer can find user reviews easily, and the easiest is on websites such as Amazon.com that allow users to submit their own reviews. Here a person will be able to read things like how a pocket of air keeps this particular blender from crushing ice. There are also other sites that offer product reviews that you can find on the internet.

The moral of the story is that any average blender will not always do the work that you want it to. Sometimes you are going to need more of a heavy duty blender. Also you should never go into buying any product without checking out some user reviews. That is where you can find all of the juicy details that any advertisements will not share.
