Food Processing Tips

To slice uncooked meat or poultry, such as stir-fry meats: Cut or roll food to fit feed tube. Wrap and freeze food until hard to the touch, 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on thickness of food. Check to be sure you can still pierce food with the tip of a sharp knife. If not, allow to thaw slightly. Process, using even pressure.

To slice cooked meat or poultry, including salami, pepperoni, etc.: Food should be very cold. Cut in pieces to fit feed tube. Process food, using firm, even pressure.

To shred firm and soft cheeses: Firm cheese should be very cold. For best results with soft cheeses, such as mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes before processing. Cut to fit feed tube. Process, using even pressure.

USING THE DOUGH BLADE

To make bread: Use the dough blade for bread recipes using 2-3 cups flour. The multipurpose blade can be used for recipes calling for less than 3 cups flour.

USING THE EGG WHIP

To make egg white meringue: Place 3 egg whites and 1⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar in work bowl fitted with attachment (See page 11). Process until foamy, about 30 to 45 seconds. With processor running, slowly add 1⁄3 cup sugar through feed tube. Process until stiff peaks form, about 21⁄2 to 3 minutes. Stop processor as necessary to check texture of mixture.

To whip cream: Place heavy cream in work bowl fitted with attachment (See page 11). Process 30 seconds.

With processor running, add 2 tablespoons powdered sugar through feed tube. Process just until soft peaks form, about 30 to 40 seconds. Stop processor as necessary to check texture of mixture. With processor running, add 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla, if desired, through feed tube. Process just until mixed. Do not overprocess.
