Handy Blending Hints
• A brief whirl in the blender will rescue a lumpy gravy, or an eggs-
based sauce that has separated.
• Food items for blending should be cut into cubes (approximately
2-3cm), this will assist in achieving an even result.
• Never fill the Glass jug above the maximum level indicated.
• To ensure efficient mixing when blending dry mixtures, it may be
necessary to stop the blender and push ingredients down the sides
of the jug with a spatula.
• When pureeing fruit or vegetable, cooked or raw, cut into small
pieces to facilitate blending.
• When blending a variety of ingredients together, blend the liquids,
first, then add dry ingredients.
• Always ensure stones are removed from fruit and bones from meat as
these can harm the blades.
• Do not process hot liquids in your blender. Allows it to cool before
processing.
Always ventilate the Glass jar when pureeing warm ingredients. This is
achieved by lifting the measuring cup out of the lid, after starting the
blender.
