BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
• Cut food into pieces no larger than
¾
”
for use in the blender.
• When preparing foods that have several different kinds of
ingredients, always add liquid ingredients first.
• When ingredients splatter onto the sides of the jar or the mixture is
very thick, press the ON/OFF button to turn appliance off. Remove
the lid and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the
jar and to redistribute the food, pushing food toward the blades.
Replace the lid and continue blending.
• When making bread crumbs or blending dry goods, make sure
blending jar and blade assembly are completely dry.
• The PULSE/ICE CRUSH function is helpful when short bursts of
power are needed, such as when preparing thick smoothies or
milkshakes. Do not use pulse for more than 10 seconds at a time.
Release the PULSE/ICE CRUSH button regularly, allow the blender
to rest briefly, then continue.
• Do not run blender for longer than 1
½
minutes at a time.
• Do not use if blender jar is chipped or cracked.
• It is helpful to begin the blending process on the lowest speed and
then increase to a higher speed, if necessary.
• To stop blending at any time, press the ON/OFF button.
• When blending hot ingredients open the ingredient slot. Cover
lid with a cloth to avoid splattering and use speed 1. Do not blend
more than 2
½
to 3 cups at a time.
• Always operate the blender with the lid on the jar.
• Do not store foods in the blending jar.
• Do not overfill the blender (the blender is more efficient with less
rather than more).
DO NOT USE BLENDER TO BLEND:
• Large pieces of frozen foods
• Tough foods such as raw turnips, sweet potatoes and potatoes
• Bones
• Hard salami, pepperoni
• Boiling liquids (cool for 5 minutes before placing in blending jar)
• Egg whites
• Dough
• Meats
