RECIPES TIPS

The simple recipes that follow include some Cuisinart favourites as well as some creative combinations that are sure to please your friends and family. Thanks to the superior ice crushing power of the Premium 2 in 1 Blender, you’ll also be able to make delicious frozen drinks.

Chopping Nuts: Place ½ cup (125 ml) shelled nuts in the blender jar and cover blender. Set on low and pulse until desired chop is achieved. Pulse fewer times for coarsely chopped nuts. For best results process small amounts, ½ cup (125 ml)or less.

Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs: Break or cut bread, cookies or crackers into pieces ½-inch (1.25 cm) 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. Set on low or high and pulse to chop, then blend continuously until desired texture of crumbs is achieved. For best results, process 1 cup (250 ml) or less at a time.

Crushing Ice: Add up to 10 standard ice cubes to the blender jar. Cover. Press the Pulse button, then press the high button, using short bursts,10 times, or until cubes are the consistency of snow. Turn blender off. Pulse fewer times if coarsely chopped ice is desired.

Grating Fresh Citrus Zest: For best results, blender jar and cutting 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. Cut strips in half. Process no more than 8 strips at a time (zest of 1 medium lemon).

Add strips and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) sugar or coarse salt (from recipe) to the blender jar. Cover blender jar. Set on low; blend for 15 to 20 seconds. Turn blender off.

Baby Food: Combine ½ cup (125 ml) cooked vegetables, fruit or meat with 3 to 4 tablespoons liquid (water, milk, fruit juice, broth, or cooking liquid) in the blender jar. Set on Low or High. Blend for 15 to 20 seconds until a smooth purée is reached.

Add more liquid as necessary and process further until desired texture is reached. For “junior” type foods, set on high and use the pulse function. 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 (1.25 cm) pieces; remove all outer hard rind. Place cheese in blender jar. Set on low. Pulse to chop cheese, 10 to 12 times, then blend until de- sired grind is reached. For best results, grind no more than 3 ounces (90 g)of cheese at a time.

Grinding Spices: For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean and dry. Add ¼ to ½ cup (50-125 ml) of spices/seeds/ peppercorns to blender jar. Set on low or high; pulse to break up, then blend for 20 to 40 seconds. Turn blender off.

Whipping Cream: If possible, chill blender jar and cutting assembly in refrigerator for 15 minutes. Add 1 cup (250 ml) heavy or whipping cream to blender jar. Cover jar. Set on low and pulse (1-second pulses) 20 to 30 times until cream is thickened. (Do not overblend – bits of butter will begin to form.) If desired, add 1 table- spoon (15 ml) sugar and 1 to 2 teaspoons (5-10 ml) of vanilla or other flavouring. Consistency will be that of a thickened but not fluffy whipped cream and is most appropriate for topping desserts or coffee drinks.

Puréeing Hot Mixtures: When using the blender to purée hot mixtures such as creamed soups and baby foods, strain the solids from the liquid, reserving the cooking liquid. Allow hot foods to

cool slightly before blending to prevent steam buildup, which may cause the lid to lift up from the blender jar. Place the cooked solids in the blender jar along with ½ to 1 cup (125-250 ml) of the reserved cooking liquid. Pulse to chop, then blend until desired consistency/purée is reached.

NOTE: It is highly recommended NOT to dis- pense hot ingredients through the dispenser tap.

Keep ice cubes made of juices, yogurt, milk or fruit purées on hand, and use instead of plain ice when making smoothies and frosty beverages to prevent diluting the drink.

For quick cleaning, add 1 cup (250 ml) of warm water and a drop of liquid dish soap to the blender jar. Cover and blend on low or high for 30 seconds or more as needed. Discard the soapy water and rinse blender thoroughly before the next use.

Keep your blender out on the counter within easy reach and you will be surprised how often you will use it.
