Food Processing Tips USING THE MULTIPURPOSE BLADE To chop fresh fruits or vegetables: Peel, core, and/or remove seeds. Cut food in 1 to 1

⁄2-inch (2.5 to 3.8 cm) pieces. Process food to desired size, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Scrape sides of bowl, if necessary. To puree cooked fruits and vegetables (except potatoes): Add

⁄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: Insert chef’s bowl into the work bowl. Using the shredding disc, shred hot, cooked potatoes. Remove the chef’s bowl with potatoes. Place multipurpose blade in work bowl, and add shredded potatoes, softened butter, milk, and seasonings. Pulse 3 to 4 times, 2 to 3 seconds each time, until milk is absorbed and texture is smooth. Do not overprocess. To chop dried (or sticky) fruits: The food should be cold. Add

⁄4 cup (60 ml) flour from recipe per

⁄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 narrow 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 (710 ml) 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. 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. To make bread, cookie, or cracker crumbs: Break food into 1

⁄2 to 2-inch (3.8 to 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 narrow 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 (2.5 cm) 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 narrow feed tube while the processor is running. USING A SLICING, SHREDDING, OR CUTTING DISC NOTE: When cutting and packing food items in the Ultra Wide Mouth™ feed tube, do not exceed the maximum fill line. This will permit the pusher to engage the interlock and the unit to operate. To cut julienne, or match stick, strips of vegetables and fruits: Cut food to fit feed tube horizontally. Position food horizontally in feed tube. Process, using even pressure to make plank- like slices. Re-stack slices and position vertically or horizontally in feed tube. Process, using even pressure. 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 the feed tube vertically or horizontally, and pack feed tube securely to keep food positioned properly. Process using even pressure. Use the medium-size feed tube in the 3-piece food pusher, and process with the medium pusher (KFPW763 & KFPM773). Or use the narrow feed tube in either the two-piece food pusher (KFPW760 & KFPM770) or three-piece pusher. Position food vertically in the tube with the small end going in first and the large end processed last. Use the narrow food pusher to process the food. 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. 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, but do not exceed the maximum fill line. Process, using even pressure. Use the medium-size feed tube in the 3-piece food pusher, and process with the medium pusher (KFPW763 & KFPM773). Or use the narrow feed tube in either the two-piece food pusher (KFPW760 & KFPM770) or three-piece pusher. Position food vertically in the tube and use the narrow food pusher to process the food.

Food Processing Tips ENGLISHENGLISH

Food Processing Tips To shred spinach and other leaves: Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed tube. Process, using even pressure. 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. 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. 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. To slice or shred items that are “pear-shaped” like sweet potatoes, eggplant and squash: Position food horizontally so that the bigger/fatter side is to the left of the feed tube when you are facing the unit. Process, using even pressure on the food pusher. USING THE DOUGH BLADE The dough blade is specially designed for mixing and kneading yeast dough quickly and thoroughly. For the best results, do not knead recipes which use more than 2-3 cups (475-710 ml) of flour.

To make soft egg white meringue: Place 3 egg whites and

⁄4 teaspoon (1 ml) cream of tartar in work bowl fitted with egg whip. Process until foamy, about 30 to 45 seconds. With processor running, slowly add

⁄3 cup (80 ml) sugar through the narrow feed tube. Process until stiff peaks form, about 2

⁄2 to 3 minutes. Stop processor as necessary to check texture of mixture. To whip cream: Place heavy cream in work bowl fitted with egg whip. Process 30 seconds. With processor running, add 2 tablespoons (30 ml) powdered sugar through the narrow feed tube. Process just until soft peaks form, about 30 to 40 seconds. Stop processor as necessary to check texture of mixture. With processor running, add

⁄2 teaspoon (2 ml) vanilla, if desired, through the narrow feed tube. Process just until mixed. Do not overprocess.21 Helpful Hints

1. 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.

2. When cutting and packing food

items in the Ultra Wide Mouth™ feed tube, do not exceed the maximum fill line. This will permit the large pusher to engage the interlock and the unit to operate.

3. Do not overfill work bowl or mini

bowl. For thin mixtures, fill work bowl up to

⁄3 full. For thicker mixtures, fill work bowl up to

⁄4 full. For liquids, fill up to the maximum level as described on page 13. When chopping, the work bowl should be no more than

⁄2 cup (120 ml) solids.

4. 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.

5. To capitalize on the speed of the

processor, drop ingredients to be chopped through the narrow feed tube while the processor is running.

6. 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.).

7. Soft and medium-hard cheese

may spread out or roll up on the shredding disc. To avoid this, shred only well-chilled cheese.

8. 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 medium feed tube in the three-piece pusher with the food (models KFPW763 & KFPM773). For processing small or slender items, the narrow feed tube (all models) will prove especially convenient.

9. 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 overchopping. Process nuts and fruits, using short pulses, until blended with other ingredients. Do not overprocess.

10. When shredded or sliced food piles

up on one side of the bowl, stop the processor and redistribute the food using a spatula.

11. When food quantity reaches the

bottom of a slicing or shredding disc, remove the food. WARNING Cut Hazard Handle blades carefully. Failure to do so can result in cuts. ENGLISH Continued on next pageENGLISH

12. 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.

13. Organize processing tasks to

minimize bowl cleanup. Process dry or firm ingredients before liquid ingredients.

14. 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.

15. After removing the work bowl cover,
