Using the multipur_pose blade

To chop fr_esh fr_uits or_ vegetables:

Peel, core, and/or remove seeds. Cut food in 1 to 11/2-inch (2.5- 3.75 cm) pieces. Process food

to desired size, using Low speed. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary.

To pur_ee cooked fr_uits and vegetables (except potatoes):

Add 1/4 cup (60 ml) liquid from recipe per cup (235 ml) of food. Process food, using short pulses, until finely chopped. Then process continuously until reaching desired texture. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary.

To pr_epar_e mashed potatoes:

Shred hot cooked potatoes using the shredding disc. Exchange shredding disc

for multipurpose blade. Add softened butter, milk, and seasonings. Pulse 3 to 4 times,

2 to 3 seconds each time, until smooth and milk is absorbed. Do not over process.

To chop dr_ied (or_ sticky) fr_uits:

The food should be cold. Add 1/4 cup

(60 ml) flour from recipe per 1/2 cup

(120 ml) dried fruit. Process fruit, using short pulses, until reaching desired texture.

To finely chop citrus peel:

With sharp knife, peel colored portion (without white membrane) from citrus. Cut peel in small strips. Process until finely chopped.

To mince gar_lic or_ to chop fr_esh her_bs or_ small quantities of vegetables:

With processor running, add food through the feed tube. Process until chopped. For best results, make sure work bowl and herbs are very dry before chopping.

To chop nuts or_ make nut butter_s:

Process up to 3 cups (710 ml) of nuts to desired texture, using short pulses, 1 to

2 seconds each time. For a coarser texture, process smaller batches, pulsing 1 or

2 times, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Pulse more often for finer texture. For nut butters, process continuously until smooth. Store

in refrigerator.

NOTE: Processing nuts and other hard foods may scratch the surface finish on the inside of the bowl.

To chop cooked or_ r_aw meat, poultr_y, or_ seafood:

The food should be very cold. Cut in 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces. Process up to

1 pound (455 g) at a time to desired size, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary.

To make br_ead, cookie, or_ cr_acker_ cr_umbs:

Break food into 11/2 to 2-inch (3.75-5 cm) pieces. Process until fine. For larger pieces, pulse 2 to 3 times, 1 to 2 seconds each time.

Then process until fine.

To melt chocolate in a r_ecipe:

Combine chocolate and sugar from recipe in work bowl. Process until finely chopped.

Heat liquid from recipe. With processor running, pour hot liquid through the feed tube. Process until smooth.

To gr_ate har_d cheeses, such as Par_mesan and Romano:

Never attempt to process cheese that cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. You can use the multi-purpose blade to grate hard cheeses. Cut cheese in 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces. Place in work bowl. Process, using short pulses, until coarsely chopped.

Process continuously until finely grated. Pieces of cheese can also be added through the feed tube while the processor is running.

Using a slicing or_ shr_edding disc

Rotating Blade Hazard Always use food pusher. Keep ngers out of openings. Keep away from children.

Failure to do so can result in amputation or cuts.

To slice or_ shr_ed fr_uits or_

vegetables that ar_e long and r_elatively small in diameter_,

such as celer_y, carrr_ots, and bananas:

Cut food to fit wide mouth feed tube vertically or horizontally, and

pack feed tube securely to keep

food positioned properly. Do not exceed the Max Fill line. Process using even pressure with

wide food pusher.

Or use the small feed tube in the 3-in-1 food pusher. Position food vertically in the tube and use the small food pusher to process food.

To slice or_ shr_ed fr_uits and vegetables that ar_e r_ound, such as onions, apples, and gr_een pepper_s:

Peel, core, and remove seeds. Cut in halves or quarters to fit feed tube. Position in feed tube. Process using even pressure with food pusher.

To slice or_ shr_ed fr_uits and vegetables that ar_e small, such as str_awberrr_ies, mushr_ooms, and r_adishes:

Position food vertically or horizontally in layers within the feed tube. Fill feed tube in order to keep food positioned properly. Process, using even pressure. Or use the small feed tube in the 3-in-1 food pusher. Position food vertically in the tube and use the small food pusher to process food.

To slice uncooked meat or_ poultr_y, such as stir_-fr_y meats:

Cut or roll food to fit feed tube. Wrap and freeze food until hard to the touch, 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on thickness of food. Check to be sure you can still pierce food with the tip of a sharp knife.

If not, allow to thaw slightly. Process using even pressure with food pusher.

To slice cooked meat or_ poultr_y, including salami, pepper_oni, etc.:

Food should be very cold. Cut in pieces to fit feed tube. Process food using firm, even pressure with food pusher.

To shr_ed spinach and other_ leaves:

Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed tube. Process using even pressure with food pusher.

To shred firm and soft cheeses:

Firm cheese should be very cold. For best results with

soft cheeses, such as mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes before processing. Cut to fit feed tube. Process using even pressure with food pusher.

Using the Dough Blade

The dough blade is specially designed for mixing and

kneading yeast dough quickly and thoroughly. For the best

results, do not knead recipes which use more than 2-3 cups (250-375 g) of flour.

21

TIPSCMDFOR+ SHIFTGREATCLICKRESULTSTO CHANGE COPY

Helpful hints

To avoid damage to the blade or motor, do not process food that is so hard or firmly frozen that it cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. If a piece of hard food, such as a carrot, becomes wedged or stuck on the blade, stop the processor and remove the blade. Gently remove food from the blade.

Do not overfill work bowl. For thin mixtures, fill work bowl up to 1/2 to 2/3 full. For thicker mixtures, fill work bowl up to 3/4 full. For liquids, fill up to the maximum level as described in the “Using the Food Processor” section.

When chopping, the work bowl should be no more than 1/3 to 1/2 full.

Position slicing discs so the cutting surface is just to the right of the feed tube. This allows the blade a full rotation before contacting the food.

To capitalize on the speed of the processor, drop ingredients to be chopped through the feed tube while the processor

is running.

Different foods require varying degrees of pressure for best shredding and slicing results. In general, use light pressure

for soft, delicate foods (strawberries, tomatoes, etc.), moderate pressure for medium foods (zucchini, potatoes, etc.), and firmer pressure for harder foods

(carrots, apples, hard cheeses, partially frozen meats, etc.).

Soft and medium-hard cheese may spread out or roll up on the shredding disc. To avoid this, shred only well-chilled cheese.

Sometimes slender foods, such as carrots or celery, fall over in the feed tube, resulting in an uneven slice. To minimize this, cut food in several pieces and

pack the feed tube with the food. For processing small or slender items, the small feed tube in the 3-in-1 food pusher will prove especially convenient.

When preparing a cake or cookie batter or quick bread, use the multipurpose blade to cream fat and sugar first. Add dry ingredients last. Place nuts and fruit on top of flour mixture to prevent over chopping.

Process nuts and fruits, using short pulses, until blended with other ingredients. Do not overprocess.

When shredded or sliced food piles up on one side of the bowl, stop the processor and redistribute the food using a spatula.

When food quantity reaches the bottom of a slicing or shredding disc, remove the food.

A few larger pieces of food may remain on top of the disc after slicing or shredding. If desired, cut these by hand and add to mixture.

Use a spatula to remove ingredients from the work bowl.

Organize processing tasks to minimize bowl cleanup. Process dry or firm ingredients before liquid ingredients.

To clean ingredients from the multipurpose blade easily, just empty the work bowl, replace the lid, and pulse 1 to 2 seconds to spin the blade clean.

After removing the work bowl cover, place it upside down on the counter. This will help keep the counter clean.

Your Food Processor is not designed to perform the following functions:

-- Grind coffee beans, grains, or hard spices

-- Grind bones or other inedible parts of food

-- Liquefy raw fruits or vegetables

-- Slice hard-cooked eggs or unchilled meats.

If any plastic parts should discolor due to the types of food processed, clean them with lemon juice.
