Glad you mentioned this. When food processors came on the market in the
70's there was a fad for 'beaten biscuits' and I intended to try it should I
ever own a food processor. I got one last month just in time for feast.
Thanks for the reminder.
I share Aoife's interest in testing out period method's, but for practical
feast prep. my new little buddy really did the job on slicing 15 lbs of
leeks and grating 7 lbs of carrots and mincing 3 lbs of herbs.
