Chopping
For the best, most consistent results, you
should try to process pieces of food that are
approximately equal in size. When you break,
cut or tear food into uniform pieces before
processing, the finished results will be more
uniform.
More consistent processing results are
achieved if the processing bowl is not
overloaded.
Mincing
Pre-cut meat into cubes approximately 2cm
square.
Vegetables
When processing vegetables such as onions,
peel and quarter or cut large vegetables into
eighths.
Mixing
The quantities that can be processed within
the processing bowl will vary with the density
of the mixture.
Adding ingredients
When various recipes require dry ingredients
such as flour, add them directly into the
processing bowl before processing. There is
no need to sift ingredients when using your
MultiProcessor
™
Compact. Liquid ingredients
may be added while the processor is
operating by pouring through the feed tube in
the processor cover.
Note: When processing sauces or semi-liquid
ingredients, stop the food processor and
scrape down the bowl sides with a spatula.
Using the Feed Tube
The most important factor for successful
slicing and shredding is the way in which the
food is packed into the feed tube.
Slicing, shredding and grating
Cut all ingredients to a size that fits
comfortably into the feed tube. Pack the
feed tube and, while holding food steady
and upright with the food pusher, press
down evenly until all ingredients are sliced
or shredded. The more firmly you push,
the thicker the slices or shreds. Do not use
excessive force or you may damage the food
processor.
Note: Never use fingers to push food down
the feed tube. Always use the food pusher.
For best results when slicing
The feed tube should always be packed firmly
to allow each piece of food to support the
others. There will always be a small portion
of food left unprocessed between the food
pusher and the blade.
For best results when shredding and grating
Remember that softer foods such as cheese
(cheddar, mozzarella or swiss) should be well
chilled before processing. Harder foods such
as parmesan or Romano cheese should be at
room temperature before processing.
Note: When grating parmesan cheese do not
apply a lot of pressure to the food pusher.
Disassembly
When processing is completed, remove the
cover from the processing bowl first and
then remove the processing bowl with the
processing blade still in place.
To remove the processing bowl firstly unlock
the processing bowl cover by rotating it
in a clockwise direction until the cover is
unlocked.
Note: Always wait for the processing blade to
stop moving completely before removing the
bowl cover.
Warning: Use extreme caution, as blades are
sharp. Always handle the chopping blade by
its central plastic section.
