Yeah, we never used a ricer for applesauce either. Don't even own one. Our applesauce-smoother is a sort of food-mill thing with a crank. And we cook skins-on, as far as I recall. I haven't made applesauce in yonks.
We mash potatoes with a fork, or occasionally get really fierce with the wooden meat-tenderizing mallet. My stepmother used to put mashed potatoes in the Cuisinart, or it might have been my father. Um, glue, folks.
It's definitely a chinois, a.k.a. china cap strainer. My Dad sells restaurant supplies, and I've seen them described as such in a hundred catalogues.
Also, this conversation has made me realize that I need many, many more kitchen gadgets. Also, a new kitchen.
Huh. I'm watching "The Jury", and they're currently holding it against the defendant that he stayed completely silent upon arrest.

Scots Law is different from English Law. In Scotland there's none of that saying nothing will get you in trouble nonsense.
The few glimpses of Scots Law I've had so far seem to be a damn sight more sensible than their English equivalents. IIRC, for example, gazumping properties isn't allowed. Go Team.
Wow - no not a good thing. And a new (to me) word. Thanks Fay.
BTW - does this mean property values are still rising in London?
