Bad Day In The Kitchen....

[EcclesCake]

The cauli soup has killed the mouli :-(

On the bright side it is something to put on the Christmas list!

[Tilly2]

How did that happen, Eccles?

[jourdain2]

Always look on the bright side......... You can buy a hand-held blender very cheaply. I also wonder how cauli did it!

[EcclesCake]

I have a hand blender but for soup with stringy things like celery in it in like to pass through a mouli to get it super/souper smooth.

The mouli decided it was time to give up the ghost :-(

[Tilly2]

That cauliflower must have been a tough cookie!

[DTCwordfan]

God, I would be in mourning.

[EcclesCake]

It was a mouli not a Moulinex. Perhaps that should read it is an ex mouli.

[woofgang]

mouli....boy that's a blast from the past. I use a stick blender then sieve if necessary.

I do believe that Bensonmum, our butler, is quite fond of his Cuisinart.

[DTCwordfan]

methyl, they are brilliant at extracting all the good juices from the residue of blending......and good for making coulis, as well as being a back-up sieve.

God bless Eccles' kitchen,
She love its every nook,
And bless her Lord as she does her work,
Wash the pots and pans and even cook,
And may the meals that she prepares,
Be seasoned from above,
As the Eccles lot partake of earthly food,
Thy table for them spread,
We'll not forget to thank the Mouli so dead
Who gave her daily soup with bread,
So bless Eccles' kitchen,
God and those who enter in,
May they find but wine, soup and peace
And happiness within

[jourdain2]

How lovely, DCT.

Methyl - you got a Mouli-mixer to blend babyfood in the 60's (and 70's). It's a sort of hand-powered mechanical sieve. (I'm assuming that Eccles has a similar affair.)
