BASIC FOOD PROCESSING TECHNIQUES

WARNING

When slicing and shredding, always 
use the food pusher to guide food down 
the feed chute. Never put your fi ngers 
or spatula into the feed chute. Always 
wait for the disc to stop spinning 
before removing the lid.

Leafy vegetables

For cabbage, wash and shake off excess 
water. Cut into wedges to fi t feed chute. 
For lettuce, separate leaves, wash and dry 
thoroughly, then roll up and pack vertically 
into feed chute. Slice or shred.

NOTE

Slicing or shredding is not 
recommended for spinach. To process 
spinach, wash and dry thoroughly, tear 
into pieces and use mini chopping 
blade or S Blade

.

Cheese

Caution should always be taken when 
processing cheese in a food processor. 

For soft cheese such as Mozzarella and 
Bocconcini, partially freeze, until fi rm 
otherwise it will jam in the disc. For hard 
cheese such as Parmesan, check fi rst that it 
is not too hard otherwise it will damage the 
disc - the cheese should slice easily with a 
sharp knife.

For round cheese such as Mozzarella and 
Bocconcini, slice one end and pack into the 
feed chute so the fl at end is facing the disc.

For wedge-shaped cheese, pack 2 pieces 
side by side into chute to form a rectangular 
shape (one piece with tip facing down, other 
piece with tip facing up). Slice or shred.

Deli meats

Cut the meat to fi t the length of the feed 
chute (no more than 5 

½

 inches (14cm)).

Pack into the feed chute with the cut side 
facing disc.

Raw meat

Partially freeze trimmed meat that has 
been cut to fi t the feed chute until fi rm. 
Recommended cuts: pork and lamb fi llet, 
thickly cut boneless sirloin. Pack into the 
feed chute vertically. Slice.

Chocolate

Break block of chocolate into pieces. 
Chill until fi rm. Pack into the small feed 
chute. Shred. 

JULIENNE DISC 

BASIC FOOD PROCESSING TECHNIQUES

Slicing and shredding

1. 

Place the desired cutting disc onto the 
disc spindle in the processing bowl.

2. 

Prepare food as directed in the following 
food categories or recipes.

3. 

Pack food into the feed chute as directed 
in the following food categories. For 
smaller size food leave the large pusher 
in place and use the small pusher 
instead. The food should fi t snugly so it 
is supported upright in the feed chute, 
but not so tight that it prevents the food 
from easily moving down the feed chute 
when guided by the food pusher.

4. 

Process using the START/PAUSE button 
while at same time, gently guiding the 
food down the feed chute using the food 
pusher. Never force the food down as this 
will damage the discs. Apply light pressure 
for soft foods such as tomatoes and 
bananas; medium pressure for fi rmer foods 
such as potatoes and apples; and fi rm 
pressure for hard foods such as Parmesan 
cheese and deli meats such as salami.

5. 

Repeat this process until all food has 
been sliced, shredded or grated.

Round fruit and vegetables

Prepare fruit or vegetables by washing or 
peeling, and coring or seeding (if necessary). 
For small fruit and vegetables (e.g. kiwi fruit, 
roma tomatoes), trim one end so the food 
sits fl at in the feed chute.

For large fruit and vegetables (e.g. apples), 
cut in half (if required) to fi t in the feed 
chute. Pack into the feed chute from left 
to right with the adjustable slicing disc at 
the slot number required for the desired 
thickness.

Tomatoes in chute 

Sliced tomatoes

Apples in chute 

Sliced apples

Long fruit and vegetables

Prepare fruit or vegetables by washing or 
peeling. First cut the food to fi t the length 
of the feed chute (no more than 5 

½

 inches; 

(14cm). If food fi ts without the need to cut, 
trim one end so that it sits fl at in feed chute 
or the food should be able to lie on the side 
if you require a long thin slice of vegetable 
or fruit.

Pack food vertically or horizontally, into the 
feed chute with cut side facing disc.

The small feed chute can be used for long 
vegetables such as carrots and zucchini.

Zucchini in chute
