Chop nuts
..
With knife and
board this is a slow process and
can result in nut pieces all over
the kitchen
The mini chopper makes this a
simple and tidy process. Use nuts
without their skins, and make sure
they are fresh as stale nuts taste
bitter
To intensify their flavour and
crunchiness, toast them in a
hot oven 180C/350F/M4 for
about 10 minutes, watching
carefully
Half fill the bowl and give short,
sharp whizzes to grind the nuts to
the desired fineness. If using for a
recipe that includes flour, put
some in with the nuts. This
prevents them from becoming
oily and chops them more evenly
Sprinkle over desserts and cakes,
add to stuffings and to savoury
toppings for vegetarian bakes
Your Dualit mini chopper is a useful
cooking aid and effortlessly takes care
of many boring and messy chores.
You can produce those little extras in
moments that can make plain food
into something special.
Chop onions and garlic finely
by putting chunks into the
chopper and whizzing - no smelly
fingers!
Grate cheeses in moments,
ready for adding to sauces or
sprinkling over baked dishes
Nothing is easier than grating
hard Parmesan cheese finely in
the mini chopper
150g (5oz) Parmesan cheese
makes a useful quantity
Cut off any rind and grate a few
chunks of cheese at a time, then
store in a tightly sealed container
and use straight from the freezer
DAILY USES FOR YOUR DUALIT MINI CHOPPER
Produce vegetable purées
for both babies and sophisticated
grown ups
Simply whiz up cooked
ingredients
Puréed root vegetables make a
change from serving chunks –
add butter and/or milk, herbs,
spices, salt and pepper
Make fresh breadcrumbs in
moments. White breadcrumbs
produce the fluffiest crumbs, but
use brown bread if you prefer
Cut the crusts from the bread
(slightly stale is best) and cut
into cubes
Half fill the mini chopper
Whiz to make the crumbs
Make in batches, tipping them
out into a plastic bag to store in
the freezer
