TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

Quick tips

• If you’re making beverages using ice, start with ICE, then finish with Speed 5 in order to produce a smoother texture.

• Ice directly from the freezer will crush better than partially melted ice for snow.

• Smaller ice cubes can be chopped or crushed faster than large ones.

• For many ingredient mixtures, start the blending process at speed 1 to thoroughly combine the ingredients. Then increase to a higher speed, as desired.

• If desired, remove center ingredient cup of pitcher lid to add liquids or ice cubes while the Blender is operating at speeds 1, 2, or 3.

How to...

Dissolve flavored gelatin: Pour boiling

water into the pitcher; add gelatin. Remove center ingredient cup, and place a towel over the lid. Blend at speed 1 until gelatin is dissolved, about 10 to 30 seconds. Add other ingredients.

Make cookie, cracker or bread crumbs: Break cookies, crackers, or bread into pieces about 4 cm in diameter. Place in pitcher. In Pulse mode, cover and blend at speed 2, pulsing a few times, about 3 seconds each time, until reaching desired consistency.

Make a finer crumbs for pie and dessert crusts: Break cookies, crackers, or bread

into pieces about 4 cm in diameter and place in the pitcher. Pulse in shorts bursts until reaching desired consistency, about 20 to 30 seconds

Chop fruits and vegetables: Put 2 cups (475 mL) of fruit or vegetable chunks in pitcher. Use short runs of speed 1 until reaching desired consistency.

Puree fruits: Place 2 cups (475 mL) canned or cooked fruit in pitcher. Add 2 to 4 tablespoons (30 to 60 mL) fruit juice or water per cup (240 mL) of fruit. Cover and blend at speed 4 about 5 to 10 seconds.

• Stop the Blender before using utensils in the pitcher. Use a rubber spatula to mix ingredients only when the Blender is off. Never use any utensil, including spatulas, in the pitcher while the motor is running.

• Cool hot foods, if possible, before blending. Begin blending warm foods at speed 1. Increase to higher speeds, one at a time, if necessary.

• When blending hot foods or liquids, do not fill the blender pitcher to the top. Secure the lid, remove the center ingredient cup, and place a towel over the lid. Operate only on speed 1. Do not place bare hand on pitcher lid when processing hot foods or liquids.

Puree vegetables: Place 2 cups (475 mL) canned or cooked vegetables in pitcher. Add 2 to 4 tablespoons (30 to 60 ml) broth, water, or milk per cup (240 mL) of vegetables. Cover and blend at speed 4 about 10 to 20 seconds.

Puree meats: Place cooked, cubed, tender meat in pitcher. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons (45 to 60 mL) broth, water, or milk per cup (240 mL) of meat. Cover and blend on speed 1 for10 seconds. Stop the Blender and scrape sides of pitcher. Cover and blend on speed 4 for 10 to 20 seconds longer.

Take lumps out of gravy: If sauce or gravy becomes lumpy, place in the pitcher. Cover and blend at speed 3 until smooth, about 5 to 10 seconds.

Combine flour and liquid for thickening: Place flour and liquid in pitcher. Cover and blend at speed 1 until smooth, about 5 to 10 seconds.

Prepare white sauce: Place milk, flour, and salt, if desired, in pitcher. Cover, and blend at speed 1 until well-mixed, about 5 to 10 seconds. Pour into saucepan and cook as usual.

Make smoothies: Place liquids and frozen ingredients in pitcher first, then add other ingredients on top. Cover and blend on Ice for 10 to 15 seconds, then speed 5 for 10 to 15 seconds, as desired.

Prepare pancake or waffle batter from mix: Place mix and other ingredients in

pitcher. Cover and blend at speed 3 until well-mixed, 10 to 20 seconds. Stop the Blender and scrape sides of the pitcher as needed.

Grate cheese: Cut very cold cheese into

1.5 cm cubes. Place up to 1/2 cup (120 mL) cheese in the pitcher. Cover, and blend at speed 5 about 5 to 10 seconds. For hard cheeses, such as Parmesan, bring to room temperature, then blend at speed 5 for 10 to 15 seconds.

CARE AND CLEANING

Cleaning the Blender

The Blender pitcher can be easily cleaned while still attached to the base, or individually.

• Clean the Blender thoroughly after every use.
