Why use a Universal cast iron tomato miller / food strainer / food processor? Because customers for over a century and a half have known it is the secret to great food preparation, shouldn't you experience the best as well? Since 1842 Universal has been producing top quality tomato milling machines and meat grinders. The secret to its quality food production is the low RPMs of a hand turn system. The low RPMs keep the juices and pulp from scorching or evaporating under the fast revolutions of some motorized systems. Also the main body is cast iron. Cast iron not only lasts forever with the right care, but it is a chef's choice for quality food preparation. All non cast iron pieces are made in a material that is easiest to clean and keep sanitary; also replacement parts are avail able for all pieces.
The salsa screen allows big chunks of tomato, onion, pepper and what ever else you would like in your salsa, giving you a great fresh chunky garden salsa.
Tips:
Apple Sauce:
Wash, remove stems and then quarter the apples. Do not peal, remove cores, or seeds. Simmer until soft - about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and cool slightly. Process through strainer. Add sugar, honey or seasoning. Combine different apple varieties to suit your particular tastes.
Tomato Sauce & Juice:
For best results use fresh, ripe uncooked tomatoes. Wash and cut into quarter. Process through strainer. Add seasoning before or after straining. If you cook tomatoes first, let then cool slightly before straining. For thicker sauce or tomato paste, simmer pulp until thick.
Apricots, Peaches, Pears, Prunes, Plums, Etc.:
Wash fruit and remove pits if necessary. Simmer until soft. Drain and cool prior to straining. Add sweetener or season to taste.
Vegetable soups, purees & baby foods:
Wash vegetables and cut into quarter or cubes. Simmer until soft, then drain. Cool slightly before straining. Purees will be seedless, skinless, and free of tough fibers.
Beans & Peas:
Use any cooked beans or peas for soups, side dishes, bin dips, burritos, tacos, or enchiladas. Simply process through strainer and season to taste with onion, garlic etc.
Berries
Use the Berry Screen to process berries that have very small seeds. Wash, remove stems, and process through strainer. Perfect for making jams, jellies, pie fillings, dessert and ice cream toppings, adding to puddings, and for fruit leathers.
Pumpkin & Squash
Use the pumpkin screen to process squash and pumpkin. Wash, remove seeds and cut into small sections. Steam or bake until soft. Cool, then strain. Just right for pies, breads and side dishes.
