TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
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 2-3 cups (250-375 g) of flour.

HELPFUL HINTS

• To avoid damage to the blade or motor,
do not process food that is so hard or
firmly frozen that it cannot be pierced
with the tip of a sharp knife. If a piece
of hard food, such as a carrot, becomes
wedged or stuck on the blade, stop the
processor and remove the blade. Gently
remove food from the blade.
• Do not overfill work bowl. For thin
mixtures, fill work bowl up to 1/2 to ²⁄
full. For thicker mixtures, fill work bowl
up to 3/4 full. For liquids, fill up to the
maximum level as described on page 13.
When chopping, the work bowl should
be no more than ¹⁄
• Position slicing discs so the cutting
surface is just to the right of the feed
tube. This allows the blade a full rotation
before contacting the food.
• To capitalize on the speed of the
processor, drop ingredients to be
chopped through the feed tube while the
processor is running.
• Different foods require varying degrees
of pressure for best shredding and slicing
results. In general, use light pressure
for soft, delicate foods (strawberries,
tomatoes, etc.), moderate pressure for
medium foods (zucchini, potatoes, etc.),
and firmer pressure for harder foods
(carrots, apples, hard cheeses, partially
frozen meats, etc.).
• Soft and medium-hard cheese may
spread out or roll up on the shredding
disc. To avoid this, shred only well-chilled
cheese.

• Sometimes slender foods, such as
carrots or celery, fall over in the feed
tube, resulting in an uneven slice. To
minimize this, cut food in several pieces
and pack the feed tube with the food.
For processing small or slender items,
the small feed tube in the 3-piece food
pusher will prove especially convenient.
• When preparing a cake or cookie batter
or quick bread, use the multipurpose
blade to cream fat and sugar first. Add
dry ingredients last. Place nuts and
fruit on top of flour mixture to prevent
overchopping. Process nuts and fruits,
using short pulses, until blended with
other ingredients. Do not overprocess.
• When shredded or sliced food piles
up on one side of the bowl, stop the
processor and redistribute the food using
a spatula.
• When food quantity reaches the bottom
of a slicing or shredding disc, remove the
food.
• A few larger pieces of food may remain
on top of the disc after slicing or
shredding. If desired, cut these by hand
and add to mixture.
