MACHINE FUNCTIONS
Using the Metal Blade
Chopping
• For raw ingredients: peel, core and/or remove
seeds and pits. Food should be cut into even,
½ to 1-inch pieces. Foods cut into same size
pieces produce the most even results.
• Pulse food in 1-second increments to chop.
For the finest chop, either hold the pulse down
or press ON to run the machine continuously.
Watch ingredients closely to achieve desired
consistency and scrape the work bowl as
necessary.
Puréeing
• To purée fresh fruits or cooked fruits/
vegetables: Ingredients should be cut into
1-inch pieces; a smooth purée is achieved
easiest when all the pieces are equal in size.
Pulse to initially chop and then process ON
until food is puréed; scrape the work bowl as
necessary. Do not use this method to purée
cooked white potatoes.
• To purée solids for a soup or sauce: Strain
the solids from the liquid and process the
solids alone. Add cooking liquid and process
as needed.
Reversible Slicing/Shredding Disc
• Always pack food in the feed tube evenly
for slicing and shredding. The food will dictate
the amount of pressure: Use light pressure for
soft foods, medium pressure for medium
foods, and firm pressure for harder foods.
Always process with even pressure.
• For round fruits or vegetables: Remove a thick
slice on the bottom of the food so that it sits
upright in the feed tube. If food does not fit in
the feed tube, cut in half or quarters to fit.
Process with even pressure.
• For small ingredients, like mushrooms,
radishes or strawberries: Trim the ends so the
food sits upright in the feed tube.
• When slicing or shredding cheese, be sure
that the cheese is well chilled before slicing.
• To shred leafy vegetables like lettuce or
spinach: Roll leaves together and stand up
in feed tube. Process with even pressure.
