Chopping
For the best, most consistent results, you
should try to process pieces of food that are
approximately equal in size. When you break,
cut or tear food into uniform pieces before
you begin processing, the finished results will
be more uniform.
More consistent processing results are
achieved if the container is not overloaded.
Mincing
Pre-cut meat into cubes approximately 2cm
square.
Vegetables
When processing vegetables such as onions,
peel and quarter or cut large vegetables into
eighths.
Mixing
The quantities that can be processed within
the processing bowl will vary with the density
of the mixture.
Adding Ingredients
When various recipes require dry ingredients
such as flour, add them directly into the
processing bowl before processing. There
is no need to sift ingredients when using
your food processor. Liquid ingredients may
be added while the processor is operating
by pouring through the feed tube in the
processor cover.
Note:
When processing sauces or semi-liquid
ingredients, stop the food processor and
scrape down the container sides with the
spatula provided.
Using the Feed Tube
The most important factor for successful
slicing and shredding is the way in which the
food is packed into the feed tube.
When slicing, shredding and grating
Cut all ingredients to a size that fits
comfortably into the feed tube. Pack the
feed tube and, while holding food steady
and upright with the food pusher, press
down evenly until all ingredients are sliced
or shredded. The more firmly you push,
the thicker the slices or shreds. Do not use
excessive force or you may damage the food
processor.
Note:
Never use fingers to push food down
the feed tube. Always use the food pusher.
For best results when slicing
The feed tube should always be packed firmly
to allow each piece of food to support the
others. There will always be a small portion
of food left unprocessed between the food
pusher and the blade.
Preparing longer slices
Pack food items horizontally in the feed tube,
see figure 16.
