Food Processing Tips
MULTIPURPOSE
................BLADE
To chop fresh fruits or vegetables:
Peel, core, and remove seeds. Cut food
in 1 - to 1½ -inch (2.5 to 3.75 cm) pieces.
Process food to desired size, using short
pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Scrape
sides of bowl if necessary.
To puree cooked fruits and
vegetables (except potatoes):
Add 1/4cup (60 mL) liquid from recipe
per cup (235 mL) of food. Process food
using short pulses until finely chopped.
Then process continuously until desired
texture is achieved. Scrape sides of bowl
if necessary.
To prepare 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 dried (or sticky) fruits:
The food should be cold. Add 1/4cup
(60 mL) flour from recipe per 1/2cup
(120 mL) dried fruit. Process fruit using
short pulses until desired texture is
achieved.
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 garlic or to chop fresh
herbs 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 butters:
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.
To chop cooked or raw meat,
poultry or seafood:
The food should be very cold. Cut into
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 bread, cookie,
or cracker crumbs:
Break food into 11/2- to 2-inch (3.75 to
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 for a recipe:
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 grate hard cheeses, such as
Parmesan and Romano:
Never attempt to process cheese that
cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp
knife. You can use the multipurpose
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.

Food Processing Tips
USING A SLICING OR
SHREDDING DISC
/
.... To cut
julienne, or
match stick, strips of
vegetables and fruits:
Cut food to fit feed tube
horizontally. Position food
horizontally in feed tube.
Process,using even pressure
to make plank-like slices.
Re-stackslices and position vertically or
horizontally in feed tube. Process,using
even pressure.
To slice or shred fruits or vegetables
that are long and relatively small in
diameter, such as celery, carrots,
and bananas:
Cut food to fit feed tube vertically or
horizontally, and pack feed tube securely
to keep food positioned properly. Process
using even pressure.
To slice or shred round fruits
and vegetables, such as onions,
apples, and green peppers:
Peel, core, and remove seeds. Cut in
halves or quarters to fit feed tube. Position
in feed tube. Processusing even pressure.
To slice or shred small fruits and
vegetables, such as strawberries,
mushrooms, and radishes:
Position food vertically or horizontally in
layers within the feed tube. Fill feed tube
in order to keep food positioned properly.
Processusing even pressure.
To shred spinach and other leaves:
Use the slicing side of the disc. Stack
leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed tube.
Processusing even pressure.
To slice uncooked meat or poultry,
such as stir-fry 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.
Processusing even pressure.
To slice cooked meat or poultry,
including salami, pepperoni, etc.:
Food should be very cold. Cut in pieces
to fit feed tube. Processfood using firm,
even pressure.
To shred firm and soft cheeses:
Firm cheese should be very cold. For
best results with soft cheesessuch as
mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes
before processing. Cut to fit feed tube.
Process using even pressure.
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 (475-710 mL) of floun
15
Helpful Hints
1. Never process food that is so hard or
firmly frozen that it cannot be pierced
with the tip of a sharp knife. Hard
food can cause damage to the blade
or motor. If a piece of hard food, such
as carrot, becomes wedged or stuck
on the blade, stop the processor and
remove the blade. Gently remove food
from the blade.
2. Do not overfill work bowl or mini
bowl. For thin mixtures, fill work bowl
up to 1/2to 2/:3full. For thicker mixtures,
fill work bowl up to 3/4full. For liquids,
fill up to the maximum level as
described on page 10. For chopping,
the work bowl should be no more
than % to 1/2full. Use the mini bowl
for up to 1 cup (235 mL) of liquid or
1/2cup (120 mL) solids.
3. Position the slicing disc so that the
cutting surface is just to the right
of the feed tube. This allows the
blade a full rotation before contacting
the food.
4. To capitalize on the speed of the
processor, drop ingredients to be
chopped through the feed tube while
the processor is running.
5. 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-texture
foods (zucchini, potatoes, etc.), and
firmer pressure for harder foods
(carrots, apples, hard cheese, partially
frozen meats, etc.).
6. Soft and medium-hard cheese may
spread out or roll up on the shredding
disc. To avoid this, shred only well-
chilled cheese.
7. 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.
8. 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 over process.
9. When shredded or sliced food piles
up on one side of the bowl, stop the
processor and redistribute the food
using the spatula.
10. When sliced or shredded food in
the work bowl reaches the bottom of
the disc, remove the food.
11. 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.
12. Organize processing tasks to
minimize bowl cleanup. Process dry
or firm ingredients before liquid
ingredients.
13. To clean ingredients from the
multipurpose blade quickly and easily,
empty the work bowl, replace the lid,
and pulse for 1 to 2 seconds to spin
the blade clean.
14. After removing the work bowl
cover, place it upside down on the
counter. This will help keep the
counter clean.
15. To remove
the contents
of the work
bowl without
removing the
multipurpose blade,
grasp the work bowl
from the bottom and
place one finger through
the center opening to
hold the blade in place.
Then remove food from the bowl and
blade with the spatula.
16.
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
17. If any plastic parts should discolor due
to the types of food processed, clean
them with lemon juice.
