Dough
• First, process the dry ingredients (flour, salt, etc).
Press On to start processing. With the machine
running, add the liquid ingredients through the feed
tube as quickly as the dry ingredients will absorb
them. Should liquid be added too quickly, wait until
ingredients in work bowl have been incorporated
before adding more liquid. Add remaining liquid
slowly with machine still running. If dough appears
too sticky, add additional flour, about 1 tablespoon
at a time, until a cohesive dough ball is formed.
Conversely, do the same should the dough be too
dry, adding additional liquid 1 tablespoon at a time
until a cohesive dough ball forms.
Never use more than 2 cups of flour when
preparing a yeasted dough in this food
processor.
Using the Reversible Slicing and Shredding Discs
• The slicing side of the discs makes whole slices.
It slices fruits and vegetables, cooked meat, and
semi-frozen raw meat. The shredding side of
the discs shreds most firm and hard cheeses.
It also shreds vegetables like potatoes, carrots,
and zucchini.
• Always pack food in the feed tube evenly for slicing
and shredding. The food will dictate the amount of
pressure: Use light pressure for soft foods, medium
pressure for medium foods, and firm pressure for
harder foods. Always process with even pressure.
• For round fruits or vegetables: Remove a thick
slice on the bottom of the produce so that it sits
upright in the feed tube. If food does not fit in the
feed tube, cut in half or quarters to fit. Process with
even pressure.
• For small ingredients like mushrooms, radishes, or
strawberries: Trim the ends so the food sits upright
in the feed tube.
• When slicing or shredding cheese, be sure that the
cheese is well chilled.
• To shred leafy vegetables like lettuce or spinach:
Roll leaves together and stand them up in feed
tube. Process with even pressure.
NOTE: Do not use universal blade when slicing
or shredding.
NOTE: Always use the pusher when slicing or
shredding. Never put your hands in the feed
tube while unit is running.
