For best results:
• Always cut large pieces of food into smaller pieces of even size of approximately 1.5cm to
achieve even results.
• Use the sharp edge for chopping, puréeing and mixing. It is ideal for chopping softer food such
as herbs, celery, onions, garlic and most cheese. It is also useful for puréeing cooked vegetables,
making mayonnaise and mixing salad dressing.
