Kenwood Cooking Chef – Food Mixer Cooks Food Too

kenwoodcookingchef_small.jpg

The Kenwood KM070 Cooking Chef let’s you mix your food and cook it too. The claim is you put all your food and a mixer and cook it too – but we’re having a hard time figuring out – what that would be as far as a meal? Soup? Bread? Well – they claim scrambled eggs, soups, and recipes that look alot like a slow cooker might be better. We’ll have to just see it in action before buying.

When Helen and Milan moved into their home in 1958, Helen’s father gave them a new double-oven stove as a housewarming [...]
