TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

Using a slicing or shredding disc

To slice or shred fruits or
vegetables that are long
and relatively small in
diameter, such as celery,
carrots, and bananas:
Cut food to fit feed tube vertically or
horizontally, and pack feed tube securely
to keep food positioned properly. Process
using even pressure. Or use the small feed
tube in the two-piece food pusher. Position
food vertically in the tube and use the small
food pusher to process food.
To slice or shred fruits and vegetables
that are round, such as onions, apples,
and green peppers:
Peel, core, and remove seeds. Cut in halves or
quarters to fit feed tube. Position in feed tube.
Process using even pressure.
To slice or shred fruits and vegetables
that are small, such as strawberries,
mushrooms, and radishes:
Position food vertically or horizontally in layers
within the feed tube. Fill feed tube in order to
keep food positioned properly. Process, using
even pressure. Or use the small feed tube
in the two-piece food pusher. Position food
vertically in the tube and use the small food
pusher to process food.
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 spinach and other leaves:
Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed tube.
Process using 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

The dough blade is specially
designed for mixing and
kneading yeast dough quickly
and thoroughly. For the best
results, do not knead recipes
which use more than 500 g (4 cups) of flour.
