Processing Tips and Techniques

•For a uniform consistency when chopping, leave room in the bowl for the food to be tossed around.

•Also for a more uniform consistency, start with pieces of food that are similar in size. Carrots, for example, should all be cut in 1-inch (2.5 cm) chunks. Do not process 4-inch (10 cm) pieces with 1⁄2-inch (1 cm) pieces.

•This food processor is excellent to chop, mix, slice, or shred most foods. However, to maintain peak performance, do not use your food processor for the following: grinding grain, coffee beans or spices; slicing frozen meat; or crushing ice.

•Do not puree or mash starchy vegetables like potatoes. They will be over-processed in a second and turn gummy.

•Operating time will depend on quantity of food being processed. Most foods can be sliced, chopped, or shredded in seconds. Do not operate processor for more than 1 minute at a time. If processing large quantities, let the processor rest about 1 minute before continuing.

•Do not make bread dough or cookie dough in this food processor. It may damage the unit.
