RECIPE TIPS:

Chopping Nuts

Pulse 1/2 cup of nuts (shells removed) on Chop

4-5 times. Turn blender OFF; scrape blender jar with spatula. Turn blender ON and pulse on Chop 2-3 times. Turn blender OFF. Do not pulse as many times for more coarsely chopped results. For best results, process no more than 1 cup at a time.

Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs

For best results, use day old bread (drier bread works best). Break bread slices into 1/2" pieces, and process no more than 1 cup of pieces at a time on Chop for 5-10 seconds. Crackers and cookies should also be broken into 1/2" pieces; process 1 cup at a time on Chop for 10-15 seconds. Turn blender OFF.

Crushing Ice

Add up to 10 large ice cubes to blender jar. Press the Ice Crush Button, using short bursts, 10 times or until cubes are the consistency

of snow. Turn blender OFF. Do not pulse as many times if coarsely chopped ice is desired.

Grating Citrus Zest

For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean and dry. Remove zest from fruit in strips (using vegetable peeler). Use no more than 8 strips at a time (zest of one medium lemon).

Cut strips in half. Add strips and 1 teaspoon sugar (from recipe) to the blender jar. Blend on Liquefy for 15-20 seconds. Turn blender OFF.

Grinding Hard Cheese

Cut cheese into 1/2" pieces. Blend on Liquefy for 30 seconds. Turn blender OFF. For best results, grind no more than 3 ounces of cheese at a time.

Grinding Spices

For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean and dry. Add 1/4-1/2 cup of spices/seeds/peppercorns to blender jar. Blend on Liquefy for 30-35 seconds. Turn blender OFF.

Whipping Cream

Whip 1 cup of cream (whipping or heavy cream) at a time. Blend on Chop, and process for 45-60 seconds or until creamy and smooth. If making sweetened cream, add sugar after 10 seconds. Turn blender OFF. Makes about 1 cup.

Puréeing Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Rehydrate 1 ounce of tomatoes in 1 cup boiling water. Allow to sit for 10 minutes or until softened. Add tomatoes and water to blender jar. Cover and pulse on Liquefy 5 times; then run continuously on Liquefy for 15-20 seconds. Turn blender OFF. Drain in fine strainer if desired. Makes about 1/2 cup of puréed tomatoes.
