PAB geSICheaderFOOD PROCESSING..... TECHNIQUES

The food processor can process food in a variety of ways depending on which blade or disc you choose.

Chopping with the micro-serrated S Blade™

The Micro-serrated universal S Bladechops raw and cooked food to the consistency required, from coarsely chopped to minced. For many large processing tasks, the micro- serrated S Bladewill cut the processing time needed to achieve the desired results. The result depends on the type of food and how long the food is processed. Always remember to place the S Bladeinto the processing bowl before adding the food.

NOTE

To avoid over-processing, check the consistency frequently. For many processing tasks we recommend to use the PULSE button, as it may only take a few seconds to fully process the food to the desired consistency. If necessary, press the POWER/OFF button, unlock the lid and use the spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even processing.

Raw Vegetables, Fruit and Cooked Meats

Trim and cut food into 1 inch (2.5cm) cubes. Process no more than 8 cups at a time using the PULSE button at 1-2 second intervals until chopped to desired size or consistency.

Spanish Onion wedges

Chopped Spanish Onion

Raw meat, chicken and fish

Trim and cut food into 1 inch (2.5cm) cubes. Ensure all bones are removed. Chill well until firm as this will help to cut through the food more readily. Process no more than 2 1/4 pounds (or 1kg of raw meat for no more than 30 seconds at a time) using the START/ PAUSE button until chopped or minced to desired size or consistency.
