TECHNIQUES FOR USE

For smooth, even, consistent results, foods should be cut into uniform pieces, 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) or less. Insert the Cuisinart® Quick Prep® Hand Blender into the food to be processed and use a gentle up-and-down action for blending, mixing and puréeing. For some thicker mixtures, a stronger motion may be necessary. Always keep the blade below the surface of liquid/ingredients to prevent spatter. Turn the hand blender off before lifting it out of the foods you are processing.

As you use your Cuisinart® Quick Prep® Hand Blender more, you will find the best method for your favourite recipes.

TO BLEND, MIX OR PUREE

Insert the Cuisinart® Quick Prep® Hand Blender in the mixture to be processed. Process on the speed needed to produce optimum results (use EveryDay Uses and Recipes as a guide). For Shakes/Smoothies, use the 2-cup (500 ml) mixing container that comes with the hand blender, or a tall pitcher. To mix instant desserts, use a deep, narrow bowl for best results. For puréeing, use either the mixing container, an appropriate mixing bowl, or for soups and hot sauces, use the Quick Prep® Hand Blender right in the pan. Use this technique to prepare fresh, homemade baby foods from your family favourites (consult your family physician or pediatrician for appropriate food recommendations).

TO EMULSIFY

(mayonnaise / vinaigrettes)

Place the ingredients in the 2-cup (500 ml) mixing container or an appro- priate mixing bowl. Insert the Quick Prep® Hand Blender into the mixture and run on Lo speed for 15 seconds, until the mixture begins to thicken. Continue to blend, using a slow, gentle up-and-down motion, taking care not to lift the mixing blades above the top surface of the ingredients to avoid spatter. Blend until mixture has reached the desired thickness.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Always clean the Cuisinart® Quick Prep® Hand Blender thoroughly after each use. Unplug the unit and hold the blade portion of the Quick Prep® under hot running water to rinse clean. If food particles are not easily rinsed off the blade area, use a small spatula or brush to remove parti- cles. Do not use your fingers as the blade is sharp. NEVER submerge or allow water to run onto the motor base of the appliance. Wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth and dry before storing. Wash the mixing container in hot, soapy water and dry before storing, or conveniently place in the dishwasher after each use.

Cleaning Tip: After preparing oily foods (salad dressing, mayonnaise, etc.), fill the container with hot soapy water. Unplug the Quick Prep® Hand Blender and place it in the container in the sink to soak. Rinse the blade with hot water.
