USING THE FOOD CHOPPER
Use the Food Chopper to chop raw fruits, vegetables, or nuts and mince parsley, chives,
or garlic for easy preparation in your favorite recipes� Purée cooked fruit or vegetables to
make baby food or to use as bases for soups or sauces� You can also make bread crumbs
or grind raw meat� Use the drizzle basin and pour spout to easily make mayonnaise or
dressings�

For best results, larger food items should be cut into approximately 2�5-cm
cubes before processing� This step also allows processing of more food at a single time�

Do not process coffee beans or hard spices such as nutmeg, which may
damage the Food Chopper�
