Food Processing Tips
To grate hard cheeses, such as
Parmesan and Romano:
Never attempt to process cheese that
cannot be pierced with the tip of a
sharp knife. You can use the multi-
purpose blade to grate hard cheeses.
Cut cheese in 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces.
Place in work bowl. Process, using
short pulses, until coarsely chopped.
Process continuously until finely
grated. Pieces of cheese can also be
added through the feed tube while
the processor is running.
USING A SLICING OR
SHREDDING DISC
To cut julienne, or
match stick, strips of vegetables
and fruits:
Cut food to fit feed tube horizontally.
Position food horizontally in feed
tube. Process, using even
pressure to make plank-
like slices. Re-stack slices
and position vertically or
horizontally in feed tube.
Process, using even
pressure.
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.
To slice or shred fruits and
vegetables that are round,
such as onions, apples, and
green peppers:
Peel, core, and/or remove seeds. Cut
in halves or quarters to fit feed tube.
Position in feed tube. Sometimes it's
easier to remove the work bowl cover
and insert large food items into the
feed tube from the bottom, rather
than the top. 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.
To shred spinach and
other leaves:
Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in
feed tube. Process, using even
pressure.
