AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN UNLEASHES THE FOOD PROCESSOR’S FULL POTENTIAL WITH AN EYE-OPENING COLLECTION OF KITCHEN-TESTED RECIPES TO MAKE YOUR COOKING EASIER, FASTER, AND BETTER

The food processor is a powerful tool, but we’ve found that in the average home kitchen it is often relegated to only a handful of specialized tasks. The food processor never gathers dust in the test kitchen; it has helped us test our way through hundreds of iterations of pie dough, pureed dips, and vegetable side dishes. Now we’re sharing our best tips and tricks to help everyone treat this device as a motorized sous chef. Food Processor Perfection presents 75 foolproof recipes (plus over 40 flavorful variations) where the food processor is the star, from a no-bowl cake to a perfectly sliced stir-fry. It will transform how you use this appliance, streamline everyday cooking and baking, and open doors to projects you would never have considered tackling by hand.

While 83 percent of America’s Test Kitchen fans own a regular-size food processor, only 30 percent use it at least once a week, and 34 percent admit that they drag it out only a few times a year.

Embrace Almost-No-Bowl Baking: We made rich, tender baked goods such as Chewy Sugar Cookies, Easy Lemon Pound Cake, and Light and Fluffy Buttermilk Biscuits easy by using the food processor from start to finish. Other baking recipes tackle multicomponent projects—including our Classic Apple Pie, where both crust and filling are simplified, and our Carrot Layer Cake, where vegetables, batter, frosting, and even the nuts that decorate the cake take turns in the machine for supereasy prep and impressive results.

Salads and Sides at the Push of a Button: A great side dish can be what makes the meal, but too often sides are left until the last minute and treated as an afterthought while the main dish gets all the attention. We bring great sides back to the table by mobilizing the food processor to chop, slice, and shred a huge variety of vegetables for everything from a fresh Sliced Green Salad to Curried Cauliflower Rice to elegant Sautéed Zucchini with Sage and Almonds.

Process Your Way to Perfect Dips and Spreads: Go DIY with Homemade Mayonnaise, Almond Butter, Caramelized Onion Jam, Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, and more. Homemade staples are a lot more accessible when they’re kick-started by the food processor, and the results are way better than store-bought.

Knead Dough in No Time at All: Get all the crisp crust and fluffy crumb of a great loaf of bread with almost none of the hand-kneading. The food processor is by far the fastest way we’ve found to knead dough for our favorite American Sandwich Bread, Fluffy Dinner Rolls, and Yeasted Doughnuts. It also brings together the dough for Homemade Fresh Pasta in just seconds, which leaves plenty of time to create a quick Tomato–Brown Butter Sauce (also made with an assist from the food processor, of course).

Chill Out with Elegant Creamy Desserts: Frozen and chilled desserts have a reputation for being finicky; you usually need a load of specialized equipment like an ice cream maker to even attempt them at home. We show you how to make the Easiest-Ever Vanilla Ice Cream, soft and creamy Lemon Ice, and even fuss-free Classic Cheesecake, all with just your food processor.

Discover New Techniques: Did you know your food processor came with a grating disk and even a slicing disk? (Many people don’t!) Use your processor to make flavored salts, crush ice, or grind superfine sugar. Slice onions without crying. Faster and better prep is at your fingertips.

Essential Buying Guide: Our unmatched testing protocols will tell you what the best food processor is for your kitchen (and your budget). We’ve also evaluated all the extra attachments and accessories to find out which are worth your money and which are completely useless.
