5 Genius Kitchen Hacks Using a Mixer Grinder You Need to Try

Kitchen hacks in today’s time are the key to saving time and effort while preparing meals. Whether you're an experienced cook or a newbie, knowing how to use a mixer grinder effectively can make your cooking more simplified. The Wipro Elato Mixer Grinder from Wipro Appliances can handle a wide range of kitchen tasks, from grinding and chopping to blending. With these hacks, you can make the most of this multi-purpose mixer grinder.

In this blog, we’ll share 5 practical hacks for using your mixer grinder to improve your daily cooking.

  1. Blend with Ice Cubes for a Smoother Paste

When making curry pastes or chutneys, it is essential to maintain a smooth texture without thinning or adding too much water. In such a situation, try pulsing ice cubes with your ingredients. This keeps the mixture thick while ensuring it stays cool. This way, you can preserve the freshness and flavour of all ingredients. It also avoids overheating the mixture when grinding tough or fibrous ingredients. 

The deep Flow Breaker (DFB) technology of the Wipro Elato mixer grinder ensures that even tough ingredients blend smoothly. Further, adding ice cubes can help you create creamy and thick pastes for your dishes.

  1. Soak Ingredients in Advance for Quicker Grinding

Some ingredients like lentils, grains, and chickpeas can take time to grind and strain with your mixer grinder. To ease the load on the motor and blades, pre-soak these ingredients for a few hours before grinding. Soaking softens the ingredients and allows your mixer grinder to grind them faster and more efficiently. Furthermore, it helps to reduce wear and tear on the motor blades, speeds up the grinding process and gives a smooth texture to your batters and pastes.

The Wipro Elato’s 1000W multi-purpose mixer grinder has a pure copper motor and stone-pounding SS blade that gives you the perfect blending.

  1. Pre-chill the Blades for Effective Spice Grinding

Grinding spices can be tricky, as the heat generated during grinding can cause the spices to lose their aroma and flavour. A clever solution is to cool the grinder blades by placing the jar and blades in the freezer for 15–20 minutes before use. This helps keep the temperature down while grinding and preserving the essential oils and flavours of spices. This way, you can preserve the natural oils and aromas of spices and produce more smooth and even spic powders.

The Wipro Elato FMG206 comes with 100% stainless steel jars and stone pounding blades that are perfect for grinding spices. Chilling the blades can further enhance their performance, giving you fresher, more aromatic spice blends every time.

  1. Process in Smaller Quantities for Smoother Results

Overloading your mixer grinder can result in uneven grinding, especially when working with hard ingredients like grains, nuts, or spices. A simple hack to get better results is to grind in smaller batches. This ensures that the blades can process the ingredients more evenly, giving you control over the texture, resulting in a much smoother and more consistent texture. It also avoids putting strain on the motor and prolongs the appliance's life.

The Wipro Elato Mixer Grinder is equipped with large-capacity jars (1500ml, 1200ml, and 500ml SS jars) that allow you to grind in both small and large batches. To ensure consistent results, it's best to work with smaller portions, especially for ingredients that require fine grinding.

  1. Cut Onions Tear-Free with Ease

One of the most dreaded kitchen tasks is chopping onions, mainly because it causes watery eyes. You can avoid the tears by letting your mixer grinder do the hard work for you. Simply cut the onions into quarters and place them in the grinder. Pulse for a few seconds to achieve evenly chopped onions without the tears. Pulsing onions means you can avoid irritation and watery eyes. You can quickly and evenly chop onions and save time and effort in meal preparation.

The Wipro Elato Mixer Grinder features ergonomically designed handles and easy-to-clean jars, making it ideal for this quick task. It saves you time and hassle, especially when you need onions for curries, stir-fries, or salads.

From making silky pastes with ice cubes to chopping onions without the tears, these hacks will help you get the most out of your multi-purpose mixer grinder.
