TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
• 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rmer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 two piece food
pusher will prove especially convenient.
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
350g(3cups)ofour.
• Toavoiddamagetothebladeormotor,do
notprocessfoodthatissohardorrmly
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overllworkbowlormini-bowl*.
Forthinmixtures,llworkbowlupto
1/2to2/3full.Forthickermixtures,ll
workbowlupto3/4full.Forliquids,ll
up to the maximum level as described
in the section “Using Your Food
Processor - Maximum Liquid Level”.
Whenchopping,theworkbowlshould
be no more than 1/3 to 1/2 full. Use the
mini-bowl
*
for up to 235 mL (1 cup) of
liquid or 120 mL (1/2 cup) solids.
• 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.
