NOTICE

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).

INTRODUCTION

The Cuisinart® Mini-Prep®Processor handles a variety of food preparation tasks including chopping, grinding, puréeing, emulsifying and blending. The patented two-position blade provides a super-sharp edge for the delicate chopping of herbs, and for blending and puréeing other soft foods, while the blunt edge offers a powerful cutting surface to grind through coffee beans, spices and other hard foods. Two operating speeds with pulse activation give maximum control for precision processing.

A powerful high-speed motor works hard and fast to accomplish any small job with ease. Chop herbs, onions, garlic; grind coffee beans, spices, hard cheese; purée baby foods; blend mayonnaise and flavored butters all with the same compact appliance. The Mini- Prep® takes up a minimum of counter space and stores neatly on the countertop or in a cabinet.
