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 feed tube vertically or horizontally. Pack feed tube securely in order to keep food positioned properly. Process using even pressure. Or use the small

chamber feed tube in

the two-piece food pusher. Position food

vertically in the chamber and use small food pusher attached

to the top of the food pusher to process food.

To slice or shred fruits and vegetables that are round, such as onions, apples, and green peppers: Peel, core, and/or remove seeds. Cut in halves or quarters to fit feed tube. Position in feed tube. Some foods are easier to insert into tube from the bottom. 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 in feed tube.

Fill feed tube in order to keep food positioned properly. Process, using even pressure. Or use the small chamber feed tube in the two-piece food pusher. Position food vertically in the chamber and use small food pusher attached to the top of the food pusher to process food.

To shred spinach and other leaves: Stack leaves. Roll up and stand roll 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.
