The Emerilware^™ BAM! Machine by T-fal^® Combines Three Essential Kitchen Tools in One Machine

WEST ORANGE, NJ (March 17, 2008) – Chef Emeril Lagasse revolutionizes food preparation and eliminates kitchen clutter with the new Emerilware^™ BAM! Machine – a 3-in-1 Food Processor by T-fal^®, available in May 2008. Designed with multi-tasking in mind, the BAM! Machine combines three essential prepping tools – a food processor, blender and citrus juicer – all on one base with a powerful 550-watt motor that can handle any culinary endeavor.

Skillful multi-tasking requires not only the right equipment but also organization, which is why the BAM! Machine is equipped with a built-in storage drawer to keep blades and cutting discs handy. Plus, clean up is a snap since all parts are dishwasher safe. The easy locking mechanism dismantles in seconds and allows the home chef to smoothly transition between all three pieces of equipment, making the BAM! Machine the ultimate in power and versatility.

Chop!

The BAM! Machine’s 12-cup food processor bowl can handle meal prep for any size crowd. With two speeds and a pulse setting, a variety of discs and blades lets you chop, slice, shred and emulsify foods and make dough. The food processor tools include:

• a durable stainless steel chopping blade that chops ingredients in seconds;
• two stainless steel slicing and shredding discs that let you create fine and coarse options;
• an emulsifying disc to whip cream and eggs lighter than air;
• a dough hook to create every kind of dough, from pizza to cookies; and
• a dual feed tube that handles large or small items, making foods like potatoes and carrots easy to process.

Blend!

Blend ingredients flawlessly with the touch of a button. In the BAM! Machine’s 40-ounce blender jar, you can create delicious thirst-quenching beverages, from crowd-pleasing frozen drinks to fruity summer smoothies.

Juice!

If freshly-squeezed orange juice sounds like the perfect reason to get out of bed in the morning, just attach the direct drive citrus press to the motor base. It serves juice right into the glass in seconds. Churn out refreshing lemonade on a hot summer afternoon or fresh squeezed lime juice for a key lime pie in no time.

“Anyone who spends time in the kitchen knows that cooking requires a lot of multi-tasking,” says Chef Emeril Lagasse. “Whether I’m prepping for an everyday meal or a special dinner, I need a food processor that can perform how I need it to and clean up easily. My 3-in-1 Food Processor was designed with the busy cook in mind…it’s a real workhorse that will help you breeze your way through any meal!”

The “Emerilware” BAM! Machine by T-fal includes seven recipe cards created by Chef Emeril so anyone can cook like a pro in their own kitchen. The suggested retail price is $149.99. Images are available at http://newsroom.mbooth.com/T-fal/MediaGallery.
