RECIPE TIPS AND HINTS
• The Cuisinart
®
PrepExpress™ allows you to prepare ingredients quickly and easily, whether
you’re cooking for one person or for a party. Plus, cleanup is a breeze. Just rinse the
accessories when you’re done and run them through the dishwasher.
• Most vegetables and some fruits can be prepped with the Cuisinart
®
PrepExpress™.
Recommended foods that can be used with all Cutting Cones include zucchini, summer
squash, cucumbers, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, beets, radishes, daikon and small
apples.
• Larger items, such as butternut squash, may also be processed by trimming the sides or
quartering to fit desired Feed Tube. (Keep in mind that round items spiralize best.)
• Some softer items may be sliced, such as firm plum tomatoes, avocados and mangoes.
• Prepped foods can be enjoyed raw, pickled, sautéed, fried, roasted or mixed into recipes.
They can be used as toppings, served as a side or main dish, or even as a garnish.
• Other fun uses for the Cuisinart

Making rose-like garnishes using radishes and the Slice/Ribbon Cone.
