RECIPE TIPS
The simple recipes that follow include some old Cuisinart
®
favorites as well
as some creative combinations that are sure to please your friends and
family. Thanks to the superior ice-crushing power and pre-programmability
of the PowerEdge
®
1000-Watt Blender, you’ll also be able to make delicious
frozen drinks effortlessly.
Chopping Nuts:
Place shelled nuts in the blender jar and cover blender.
Use pre-programmed Pulse on High until desired chop is achieved. Pulse
fewer times for coarsely chopped nuts. For best results process small
amounts, ½ cup or less.
Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs:
Break or cut bread, cookies or
crackers into pieces ½ inch or less in size. For best bread results, use
day-old bread (drier bread works best). Place bread, cookie or cracker
pieces in blender jar. Use Pulse on High to chop, then blend continuously
on Low until desired texture of crumbs is achieved. For best results,
process 1 cup or less at a time.
Crushing Ice:
Add up to 8 standard ice cubes to the blender jar.
Cover. Press the pre-programmed Ice Crush button. Timer will sound;
turn blender off.
Grating Fresh Citrus Zest:
For best results, blender jar and blade
assembly must be clean and dry. Remove zest from fruit in strips using a
vegetable peeler; use a sharp knife to remove the bitter white pith from the
underside of the zest. Process no more than 8 strips at a time (zest of 1
medium lemon). Cut strips in half. Add strips and 1 to 2 teaspoons of sugar
or coarse salt (from recipe) to the blender jar. Cover blender jar. Set on High;
blend for 15 to 20 seconds. Turn blender off.
Baby Food:
Combine no more than 1 pound of cooked vegetables or
fruit with ½ cup liquid (water, milk, fruit juice, broth, or cooking liquid) in
the blender jar. Cover. Set on High. Blend until smooth. Add more liquid
as necessary and process further until desired texture is reached. Always
consult with your pediatrician/family physician concerning the best foods for
your baby and when to introduce new foods to his/her diet.
Grinding Hard Cheese:
Cut cheese into ½-inch pieces; remove the outer
hard rind. Place cheese in blender jar and cover blender. Pulse to chop
cheese, then blend on High until desired grind is reached. For best results,
grind no more than 3 ounces of cheese at a time.
Grinding Spices:
For best results, blender jar and blade assembly must
be clean and dry. Add ¼ to ½ cup of spices/seeds/peppercorns to blender
jar. Cover. Pulse on High to break up, then blend on High until desired
consistency is achieved.
Whipping Cream:
If possible, chill blender jar and blade assembly in
refrigerator for 15 minutes. Add 1 cup heavy or whipping cream to blender
jar. Cover jar. Set on High and blend until cream is thickened. (Do not
overblend – bits of butter will begin to form.) If desired, add 1 tablespoon of
