Hints and tips for
blending
Use your blender for soups, sauces,
drinks, pates, mayonnaise, dressing etc.
• Don’t put dry ingredients into the blender
before switching on. If necessary, cut
them into pieces, remove the filler cap,
then, with the machine running drop the
pieces through one by one.
• When making mayonnaise, put all the
ingredients, except oil, into the blender.
Then with the machine running, pour the
oil slowly into the blender through the
filler cap hole.
• Thick mixture, eg. pates and dips, may
need scrapping down with a spatula.
Ensure the appliance is switched off first.
If the mixture is difficult to process add
more liquid.
• When blending pour the liquids in first
and then add the solid food. Begin
blending at the lower speed and increase
when needed.
IMPORTANT: To ensure the long life of
your blender never run it for longer than 60
seconds and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
Switch off as soon as you have reached the
desired consistency.
• The machine will not work if the blender is
fitted incorrectly.
• Don’t use the blender as a storage
container. Keep it empty when not in use.
• Never blend more than 1 litre (1
3/
4
pints)-
less for frothy liquids such as milk shakes.
