Tips for Great Results

WARNING

Cut Hazard

Handle blades carefully.

Failure to do so can result in cuts.

Using the Multipurpose Blade

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - Using the Multipurpose Blade - 1

To chop fresh fruits or vegetables:

Peel, core, and/or remove seeds.

Cut food in I to 112 -inch

(2.5-3.75 cm) pieces. Process

food to desired size, using short pulses, I to 2 seconds each time. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary.

To puree cooked fruits and vegetables (except potatoes):

Add 1/4 cup (60 ml) liquid from recipe per cup (235 ml) of food. Process food, using short pulses, until finely chopped. Then process continuously until reaching desired texture. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary.

To prepare mashed potatoes:

Shredd hot cooked potatoes using the shredding disc. Exchange shredding disc for multipurpose blade. Add softened butter, milk, and seasonings. Pulse 3 to 4 times, 2 to 3 seconds each time, until smooth and milk is absorbed. Do not over process.

To chop dried (or sticky) fruits:

The food should be cold. Add 1/4 cup (60 ml) flour from recipe per 1/2 cup (120 ml) dried fruit. Process fruit, using short pulses, until reaching desired texture.

To finely chop citrus peel:

With sharp knife, peel colored portion (without white membrane) from citrus.

Cut peel in small strips. Process until finely chopped.

To mince garlic or to chop fresh herbs or small quantities of vegetables:

With processor running, add food through the feed tube. Process until chopped. For best results, make sure work bowl and herbs are very dry before chopping.

To chop nuts or make nut butters:

Process up to 3 cups (710ml) of nuts to desired texture, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. For a coarser texture, process smaller batches, pulsing 1 or 2 times, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Pulse more often for finer texture. For nut butters, process continuously until smooth. Store in refrigerator.

NOTE: Processing nuts and other hard foods may scratch the surface finish on the inside of the bowl.

To chop cooked or raw meat, poultry or seafood:

The food should be very cold. Cut in 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces. Process up to 1 pound (455 g) at a time to desired size, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary.

Break food into 1^1/2 to 2-inch (3.75-5 cm) pieces. Process until fine. For larger pieces, pulse 2 to 3 times, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Then process until fine.

To melt chocolate in a recipe:

Combine chocolate and sugar from recipe in work bowl. Process until finely chopped. Heat liquid from recipe. With processor running, pour hot liquid through the feed tube. Process until smooth.

To grate hard cheeses, such as Parmesan and Romano:

Never attempt to process cheese that cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. You can use the multi-purpose blade to grate hard cheeses. Cut cheese in 1-inch (2.5cm) pieces. Place in work bowl. Process, using short pulses, until coarsely chopped. Process continuously until finely grated. Pieces of cheese can also be added through the feed tube while the processor is running.

Using a Slicing or Shredding Disc

WARNING

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - WARNING - 1

Rotating Blade Hazard Always use food pusher.

Keep fingers out of openings.

Keep away from children.

Failure to do so can result in amputation or cuts.

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - WARNING - 2

To slice or shred fruits or vegetables that are long and relatively small in diameter,

such as celery, carrots, and bananas:

Cut food to fit feed tube vertically or horizontally, and pack feed tube securely to keep food positioned properly. Process using even pressure with the food pusher. Or use the small feed tube in the two-piece food pusher. Position for and use the small food.

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - WARNING - 3

To slice or shred fruits and vegetables that are round, such as onions, apples, and green peppers:

Peel, core, and remove seeds. Cut in halves or quarters to fit feed tube. Position in feed tube. Process using even pressure with the food pusher.

To slice or shred fruits and vegetables that are small, such as strawberries, mushrooms, and radishes:

Position food vertically or horizontally in layers within the feed tube. Fill feed tube in order to keep food positioned properly. Process using even pressure with the food pusher. Or use the small feed tube in the two-piece food pusher. Position food vertically in the tube and use the small food pusher to process food.

To slice uncooked meat or poultry, such as stir-fry meats:

Cut or roll food to fit feed tube. Wrap and freeze food until hard to the touch, 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on thickness of food. Check to be sure you can still pierce food with the tip of a sharp knife. If not, allow to thaw slightly. Process using even pressure with the food pusher.

To slice cooked meat or poultry, including salami, pepperoni, etc.:

Food should be very cold. Cut in pieces to fit feed tube. Process food using firm, even pressure with the food pusher.

To shred spinach and other leaves:

Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed tube. Process using even pressure with the food pusher.

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - WARNING - 4

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - WARNING - 5
To shred firm and soft cheeses:

Firm cheese should be very cold. For best results with soft cheeses, such as mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes before processing. Cut to fit feed tube. Process using even pressure with the food pusher.

Helpful Hints

  • To avoid damage to the blade or motor, do not process food that is so hard or firmly frozen that it cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. If a piece of hard food, such as a carrot, becomes wedged or stuck on the blade, stop the processor and remove the blade. Gently remove food from the blade.
  • Do not overfill work bowl. For thin mixtures, fill work bowl up to 1/2 to 2/3 full. For thicker mixtures, fill work bowl up to 3/4 full. For liquids, fill up to the maximum level as described in the "Using Your Food Processor" section of this book. When chopping, the work bowl should be no more than 1/3 to 1/2 full.
  • Position slicing discs so the cutting surface is just to the right of the feed tube. This allows the blade a full rotation before contacting the food.
  • To capitalize on the speed of the processor, drop ingredients to be chopped through the feed tube while the processor is running.
  • Soft and medium-hard cheese may spread out or roll up on the shredding disc. To avoid this, shred only well-chilled cheese.
  • Sometimes slender foods, such as carrots or celery, fall over in the feed tube, resulting in an uneven slice. To minimize this, cut food in several pieces and pack the feed tube with the food. For processing small or slender items, the small feed tube in the two piece food pusher will prove especially convenient.

KITCHENAID KFP0711CU - Helpful Hints - 1

  • Different foods require varying degrees of pressure for best shredding and slicing results. In general, use light pressure for soft, delicate foods (strawberries, tomatoes, etc.), moderate pressure for medium foods (zucchini, potatoes, etc.), and firmer pressure for harder foods (carrots, apples, hard cheeses, partially frozen meats, etc.).
  • When preparing a cake or cookie batter or quick bread, use the multipurpose blade to cream fat and sugar first. Add dry ingredients last. Place nuts and fruit on top of flour mixture to prevent over chopping. Process nuts and fruits, using short pulses, until blended with other ingredients. Do not over process.
  • When shredded or sliced food piles up on one side of the bowl, stop the processor and redistribute the food using a spatula.
  • When food quantity reaches the bottom of a slicing or shredding disc, remove the food.
  • A few larger pieces of food may remain on top of the disc after slicing or shredding. If desired, cut these by hand and add to mixture.
  • Organize processing tasks to minimize bowl cleanup. Process dry or firm ingredients before liquid ingredients.
    To clean ingredients from the multipurpose blade easily, just empty the work bowl, replace the lid, and pulse 1 to 2 seconds to spin the blade clean.
    After removing the work bowl cover, place it upside down on the counter. This will help keep the counter clean.
  • Your Food Processor is not designed to perform the following functions:

  • Grind coffee beans, grains, or hard spices
    -Grind bones or other inedible parts of food

  • Liquefy raw fruits or vegetables
  • Slice hard-cooked eggs or unchilled meats.

If any plastic parts should discolor due to the types of food processed, clean them with lemon juice

If your Food Processor should malfunction or fail to operate, check the following:

Food Processor doesn't run:

Make sure that the bowl and lid are properly aligned and locked in place.
- Press only one button at a time.

The Food Processor will not operate if more than one button is pressed at the same time.

  • Is the Food Processor plugged in?
  • Is the fuse in the circuit to the Food Processor in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed.
  • Unplug the Food Processor, then plug it back into the outlet.
  • If the Food Processor is not at room temperature, wait until it reaches room temperature and retry.

Food Processor not shredding or slicing properly:

  • Make sure the raised-blade side of the disc is positioned face up on the common adapter.
    If using the adjustable slicing blade, make sure it is set to the correct thickness.
  • Make sure ingredients are suitable for slicing or shredding. See "Food Processing Tips"

If the work bowl cover won't close when using the disc:

  • Make sure the disc is installed correctly, with the raised nub on top, and is positioned properly on the drive adapter.
