Food Mill – buying considerations

When purchasing a food mill, consider buying the medium or large size, and, although stainless steel is more expensive, it is worth having. It will never warp, crack or corrode and will last you a lifetime. There are American, French, and Italian mills…the American model has just one disk, permanently attached; the French and Italian models have interchangeable disks with small, medium, and large holes that mill food fine or coarse as wanted. In addition, they have practical fold-away clamps on the bottom that allow you to rest the food mill securely over a bowl or a pot while it does its work.
