Which chopper is best?

Want to quickly chop vegetables, but don't yet know exactly how best to do this? With a mincer you can do this in no time! Read on and see which one is best for you.

Which chopper is best for you depends on what you are going to use it for. The mincer can be used for chopping, mashing, beating or stirring. Plenty of choice! Chopping is the most obvious, for this you need to look closely at the blades to see which one is right for the job. Volume is also important to consider when choosing. If you are cooking for large households, it is nice to have a larger mixing cup. Let your imagination do its work because there are plenty of options with a chopper!

How much power should a good mincer have?

Of course, this very much depends on what you are going to use it for; a good mincer doesn't even have to have power. In fact, you also have variants that you control by hand that can also grind a lot. If you're more into electric mincers, we recommend around 400 watts, then you can also put in somewhat harder ingredients like nuts or hard vegetables. When a chopper has a higher wattage it can also work at a lower wattage, because of this we recommend choosing one with a higher wattage.

What should you pay attention to when buying a mincer?

The important thing is that you have the right wattage so that it does not overload and therefore can overheat when it is chopping. It is also very nice that it is easy to clean, if that is a lot of work or difficult then you are also less likely to pick it. Also look at the different accessories that come with it, think about the types of blades there are or how much volume it has. In short, pay attention to wattage, ease of use, capacity size and accessories.

Ordering a mincer?

Then order it quickly at Cookinglife.nl! Kook Are you working for a larger household? Then don't forget to pick one that holds more volume and look at the wattage. A chopper is almost indispensable in the kitchen. After all, it is perfect for chopping, mashing, whisking and stirring all your ingredients to put the tastiest possible dish on the table.

When cleaning a mincer, it is nice if it can go in the dishwasher, so you don't have to think about it anymore. Of course you can do it by hand, but this adds an extra obstacle when you want to use it for a while. We also sometimes see that the lid cannot be cleaned properly because it fills itself with water. Very annoying of course, a good point to consider when buying one.

The linchpin of the mincer is of course the blade, because this is where the real work is done. When you choose a knife, it is nice if it stays sharp for a long time and can be put in the dishwasher, which is why it is best to choose a stainless steel knife.

It is also useful to see if the chopping mill has certain functions such as the Turbo Pulse, with which you let the blades run at maximum speed for a short time. This allows you to get all the harder ingredients in smaller pieces in no time. For example, think of the ice you need for a furthest smoothie, you can then put it in the chopping mill.
