What's the best food mill for making seedless jelly?
2013109
I have never made seedless jelly but I have used this food mill to make tomato sauce and it keeps tomato seeds out if the sauce.

Food mills will still allow small amounts of seeds to get into your milled juice. They are very small and the only way to get truly seedless jelly or jam is to strain it through cheese cloth over a bowl are large jug. You could also used a clean unused pair of panty hose. My grandmother used pantyhose because cheeseclothe wasn't readily available in the small rural town we lived in. I highly recommend this mill for all your other processing needs. I did tomatoes and no seeds passed through the sieve. It's a quality item. I loved it so much I bought my neighbor one for her birthday because she was always borrowing mine!

Do yourself a big favor and get a SQUEEZO strainer. I've had one for 30 years and it is wonderful! This Winco will NOT work for raspberries. The straining holes are too large. I also have a Kitchen Aid electric and it actually crushes the seeds and pushes them through. Awful! My advice is go with the Squeezo.

I can't speak to other food mills, but this one works really well and has a good price. We've used it to rice potatoes for mashed potatoes and have made tomato sauces with it (this is why I bought it). The occasional seed slips through, but it works! If you're looking for perfectly seedless, you'll still need to let the juices pass through a strainer.

I have a WonderMill grain mill and fresh mill Kamut brand wheat as well as a Hard White Spring wheat called "Prairie Gold" Both are marvelous grains for whole wheat flour. I make 100% all the time and works great. PERIOD!! I add 1 Tbs of vital wheat gluten just to make sure, as well as 1/8 tsp of Ascorbic acid (a yeast conditioner). I also use ingredients for Large loafs but set the setting for sandwich and works fine.

Any kind will work, we usually use on online recipe that uses dishsoap, water, and corn syrup. We love this machine, and it works well!

the one I bought recently didn't work so I sent it back. I went back to using a plastic food mill that I already had. Amazon may not want to use my response.

Hi, I have not tried that yet, but my first response would be no. When I do try to get the juice out without any seeds at all, without question I would use the food mill first then put the pulp thru my fine mesh sieve (strainer). When I do cactus apples I use my food mill and its great but is you need to be careful not to have any seeds, go with the food mill first then strain the pulp. It also makes it easier to strain once it's been thru the mill. Hope this helps. Food mills are a great addition to any kitchen!

I noticed some low or no sugar recipes on the website 'fresh preserving dot com' . Just go to Recipes & pick the filter FreshTECH Automatic Jam / Jelly Maker so it narrows the results. You can narrow it further by choosing a specific fruit. God bless you!

Most recipes which call for eggs can be made with a ground flax seed and water gel as a replacement. I have not tried it with Bob's HWM mix, but don't know why it wouldn't work.If you go to www.bobsredmill.com and click of recipes, you will find one called Bob's Red Mill Dairy-Free , Wheat-Free Bread Mix; this is the recipe Bob's recommends using instead of the one on the package. It's the one they now use in their bakery, Hope this helps.

I have only used jelly bellies. They work super. It is a big hit for all who pass by. I have had other auto dispensing in the past. This machine has been the best! I would highly recommend it.

I use the food mill for a variety of fruits and vegetables. You can make mashed potatoes, egg salad, tomato sauce, salsa, etc. You can also use it to make baby food. Depending on how chunky you want your food, pick the appropriate size disc.

I use ground flax seed, but I also use blueberries and strawberries and those seeds aren't broken down but they're very small. You might want to grind them in a coffee grinder or something, then add.

It is seedless, I make wedding cakes, and use this filling all the time. It is delicious

I haven't used a food mill to reduce a dry food to a powder, but I don't think it would work. A food mill is for moist foods, I don't think it would do much if anything with something dry and light like dried greens. A food processor is probably your best bet.

The advantage I see to this recipe for jam made with Clear Jel is that it is lower in sugar than normal jam. Of course that also means that it is going to spoil fast. But it is still going to be goopy rather than jam-like or jelly-like. If low sugar is what you are after, try no-sugar pectin. You can usually find it at supermarkets, but it is also here on Amazon.com. Do a search on "no sugar pectin" and you will come up with a number of good products.

You can make applesauce with these, or you can just cook down the ingredients and either puree them in a blender or leave it chunky. An old fashioned hand potato masher also does a nice job of make a less chunky version. A food mill can allow you to process the apples with skin on (quarter the apples and de-seed), then cook down and either jar or freeze. It kind of depends on how much and what style you want to make.

I've only used the powdered pectin to make freezer jam and you put it in 3/4 cup water and boil it before adding to the fruit/sugar mixture. I wouldn't try using a liquid pectin recipe with the dry stuff but there are plenty of recipes with the Sure Jell powder.
