INTRODUCTION

The Cuisinart®Mini-Prep®Plus Processor
handles a variety of food preparation tasks
including chopping, grinding, puréeing, emulsify-
ing and blending. The patented auto-reversing
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. Pulse
activation gives maximum control for precision
processing, whether chopping or grinding.
The 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®Plus
Processor takes up minimum counter space and
stores neatly on the countertop or in a cabinet.
