knife blade
The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The
l
ength of the processing time will determine the texture achieved.
For coarser textures use the pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping raw
a
nd cooked meat, vegetables, nuts, pâté, dips, pureeing soups
and to also make crumbs from biscuits and bread.

Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid down the
feed tube whilst the appliance is running. Process until a smooth
elastic ball of dough is formed this will take approx. 60 secs.

important
●
The whisk is not suitable for making all in one cake
mixes as these mixes are too heavy and will damage
it. Always use the knife blade.
hints
●
Best results are obtained when the eggs are at room
temperature.
●
Ensure the bowl and whisks are clean and free from grease
before whisking.
creaming fat and sugar
●
For best results fat should be allowed to soften at room
temperature (20°C) before creaming. DO NOT use fat
straight from the fridge as this will damage the
whisk.
●
H
eavier ingredients such as flour and dried fruit should be folded
in by hand.
●
Do not exceed the maximum capacity or processing time stated
i
n the recommended speed chart.

hints
●
For best results do not over whisk egg whites or cream – the
folding tool will not be able to fold the mixture correctly if the
whisked mix is too firm.
●
Do not fold the mixture for longer than stated in the
recommended speed chart as the air will be knocked out and
the mix will be too loose.
●
Any unmixed ingredients left on the paddle or sides of the bowl
should be carefully folded in using the spatula.
