BLENDING TIPS

HOW TO USE A RUBBER SPATULA WITH YOUR SUNBEAM® BLENDER

When blending ingredients of a heavy consistency such as cheese dips and sandwich spreads, it is necessary to use a rubber spatula to help the mixture get down to the blades. To use spatula, turn motor off, remove the cover, move the spatula up and down rapidly along sides of the container, and push the ingredients from the sides of the container

to the centre.

ICE CRUSH

To crush ice, fill Sunbeam Blender Container with 3 cups of ice cubes. Use liquefy Setting or Pulse/Ice Crush feature to crush ice. For shaved ice, process for longer period of time.

WHITE SAUCE

To smooth gravy or white sauce which may be lumpy, put 1/2 cup (125 ml) into Blender container, cover and start processing at STIR (ON) Remove feeder cap, and with motor running, gradually add remaining gravy or sauce. Continue to process until smooth.

CHOPPING GIBLETS

To chop giblets for gravy, cook the giblets in water or broth, then cool to room temperature. Cut giblets into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces, put in Blender container and cover with cooled cooking liquid. Cover container, and process 2 cycles at BLEND (ON). (If giblets are not chopped finely enough, process for one or two additional cycles.)

MAKING BUTTER

Heavy cream, sweet or sour can be used to make butter – pour into Blender container. Cover and process at WHIP (ON) until butter forms. Pour into strainer to drain off liquid, then put butter into small bowl and press with spatula to remove as much liquid as possible. Add salt while kneading butter. Try adding 1 Tbsp. (15 ml) dried herbs (parsley, tarragon, savory or a garlic clove) per cup (250 ml) of cream for

a delightful herb butter.

GRINDING POPPY SEEDS

To grind poppy seeds for fillings, place 1/2 cup (125 ml) poppy seeds in jar and process at Blend (ON) until seeds are crushed and moist. Stop Blender once or twice to shake down seeds from top of container.

GRATING COCONUT

To grate fresh coconut, remove feeder cap, start motor, set speed at LIQUEFY (PULSE), and drop coconut pieces into revolving blades. After grating 1-1/2 cups (375 ml) coconut, empty container and repeat process until all coconut is grated.
