BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
• Cut food into small pieces 3/4” (2 cm) before adding to the blender.

action and remove the lid. Use a rubber spatula to push food toward the blades.
Replace the lid, then continue blending.
• Some of the tasks that cannot be performed efficiently with a blender are:
beating egg whites, whipping cream, mashing potatoes, mixing dough, and
extracting juices from fruits and vegetables.
• The following items should never be placed in the unit as they may cause
damage: dried spices and herbs (ground alone), bones, large pieces of solidly
frozen foods, tough foods such as turnips.
• Use the lid cap to measure ingredients up to 60 ml (2 oz.) when adding
ingredients like lemon juice, cream, or liqueurs.
