knife blade
/ dough tool
The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments.
The length of the processing time will determine the texture
achieved. For coarser textures use the pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping
raw and cooked meat, vegetables, nuts, pate, dips, pureeing
soups and to also make crumbs from biscuits and bread. It
can also be used for yeasted dough mixes if the dough tool
is not supplied.
Use the dough tool for yeasted mixes.
