The Kit
Mix and Match
If you only use your stand mixer to make cakes, you’re
missing out on all the other clever things it can do when
you attach an accessory
T
he KitchenAid Artisan stand mixer has become the centrepiece of many kitchens. As stressed-out
contestants on The Great British Bake Off prove week after week, they are indispensable if you like
making cakes. To only use all that horsepower and the revolutionary planetary mixing action to turn
flour, eggs, sugar and butter into something delicious though is to underplay their versatility. By
attaching an accessory, they can do everything from help you make ice cream to stuff a sausage, roll fresh
pasta or spiralize a courgette.
KitchenAid has always pioneered this approach with its Artisan mixer by extending the functions of it with an
accessory. The Power Hub at the top of your KitchenAid (it’s covered by a silver cap) can take a multiplicity of official
accessories which we will showcase over the next three pages. Apparently, it’s compatible with add-ons going all the
way back to 1937. Simply plug one in and do great new things in your kitchen.
