A stand mixer is used for beating, whipping and mixing various foods. It is a more heavy-duty kitchen appliance than the hand mixer, and more effective if you plan to do a great deal of mixing. The head and body of a stand mixer are attached, with a platform for the mixing bowl. Depending on the stand mixer, the bowl or the beaters will rotate during the mixing process. The Kitchen Aid mixer featured in these clips has a classic design, which has changed little since the design was patented in 1918.
In this free kitchen appliance video, our baking expert will demonstrate how to use this workhorse mixer. Jennifer Cail begins with an overview of the parts of a stand mixer, then demonstrates various mixing attachments, such as the wire whisk, the flat beater and the hook. She also shows you various modes of operation, from slow mixing to high-speed whipping. To conclude the series, you will watch a video on how to clean your standing mixer so this powerful baking tool will last as long as possible.
