FOOD TOOL SPEED DIRECTIONS
Crumbs (Bread,
Cookie, Cracker,
Chip)
Chopping/Mixing Blade Pulse
and High
Break into pieces. Pulse to break up, and then process until desired
consistency. This will make perfect bread/cracker/chip crumbs for
coating meats and fish. Processed cookies make delicious pie and
cake crusts.
Fresh Herbs Chopping/Mixing Blade Pulse Wash and dry herbs thoroughly. Pulse to roughly chop. Continue
pulsing until desired consistency is achieved.
Ground Meat Chopping/Mixing Blade Pulse Cut meat into 1-inch pieces. Pulse to chop, about 25 long pulses, or
until desired consistency is achieved. If a purée
is desired, continue to process. Never chop/purée more than
2 pounds at one time. Make sure to never process meat containing
bones.
“Ice Cream” Chopping/Mixing Blade Pulse
and High
Put frozen fruit cut into 1-inch pieces into the work bowl, with liquid
(juice or milk), any desired sweeteners, such as sugar, honey, simple
syrup and other flavors. Pulse to break up. Process until smooth.
Milk Shakes/
Smoothies
Chopping/Mixing Blade Low For milk shakes, first add ice cream. While unit is running,
add milk through the feed tube until desired consistency is achieved.
For smoothies, add fruit first, then add the liquid through the feed
tube while unit is running.
Nuts Chopping/Mixing Blade Pulse and
High
Pulse to chop to desired consistency. To make a nut butter, pulse to
break up, and then process until smooth, stopping to scrape down
as needed.
Superfine Sugar Chopping/Mixing Blade High Process granulated sugar for about 1 minute until finely ground.
Excellent for using in meringues and other baked goods.
Whipped Cream Chopping/Mixing Blade Low Process well-chilled cream until cream begins to thicken.
Add sugar as desired; process continuously until cream reaches
desired consistency. This cream is dense and perfect as a whipped
topping for cake or ice cream.
DOUGH BLADE
Dough Blade Operation
For use with the large bowl. Carefully place the
dough blade on the shaft and push to lock into
place.
Kneading
(using the Dough Blade or the Chopping/
Mixing Blade with Low Speed)
• The chopping blade is ideal for pastry doughs,
while the dough blade is specifically designed
for kneading yeast doughs.
• The large pusher lock is recommended to be in the
locked position when kneading dough to avoid it
from moving around — some vibration is still normal.
• Dough kneading should be done in the large
bowl only.
