To Prepare for Shredding

 

 

Long narrow foods like carrots, celery, cucumbers and zucchini

Cut into even lengths about 1" shorter than height of feed tube. Stand pieces upright in feed tube, flat side down, adding enough pieces so they cannot tilt.

For long shreds, cut into largest size that will fit sideways in feed tube. Stack in feed tube to about 1" from top. For shorter shreds, stand pieces upright in feed tube, flat side down (as described in slicing column).

Apples, onions, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes and other large, round fruits and vegetables

Cut one end flat, then cut lengthwise into halves or quarters. Pack solidly in feed tube to prevent tilting. Fill feed tube to about 1" from top.

Use light to moderate pressure.

Same as slicing. Place in feed tube sideways for longer shreds, or upright for shorter shreds.

Strawberries, mushrooms, radishes and other small, round fruits and vegetables

Slice off top and bottom, leaving center section. Place in feed tube, flat side down.

Same as slicing. Radishes shred well.

Cabbage, iceberg lettuce

Cut off top and bottom, leaving center section.

Do not shred.

 

Cut into wedges to fit feed tube upright. Remove

 

 

 

core. Cut top and bottom pieces into similar

 

 

wedges.

 

Uncooked meat and poultry (8 oz. maximum at one time)

Use boneless cuts. Cut into feed-tube lengths.

Same as slicing.

Remove skin if desired. Wrap in plastic wrap and

 

put in freezer until it feels hard when you try to

 

squeeze it but is still easily pierced with tip of

 

sharp knife. Remove plastic wrap and stand

 

pieces upright in feed tube. Note: Chicken and

 

beef for stir-fries should be sliced with the grain.

 

Boned, skinned chicken breast will usually fit

 

when frozen as described above and cut in half

 

crosswise.
