Using the Dough Blade
To shred rm and soft
cheeses:
Firm cheese should be
very cold. For best results with soft cheeses,
such as mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes
before processing. Cut to t feed tube.
Process using even pressure.
TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
To slice cooked meat or poultry,
including salami, pepperoni, etc.:
Food should be very cold. Cut in pieces to
t feed tube. Process food using rm, even
pressure.
To shred spinach and other leaves:
Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed
tube. Process using even pressure.
• Do not overll work bowl or mini-bowl.
For thin mixtures, ll work bowl up to
1/2 to 2/3 full. For thicker mixtures, ll
work bowl up to 3/4 full. For liquids, ll
up to the maximum level as described
in the section “Using Your Food
Processor - Maximum Liquid Level”.
When chopping, the work bowl should
be no more than 1/3 to 1/2 full. Use the
mini-bowl for up to 1 cup (235 mL) of
liquid or 1/2 cup (120 mL) solids.
• 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 rmer 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 two piece food
pusher will prove especially convenient.
Helpful Hints
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 3 cups (350 g) of our.
• To avoid damage to the blade or motor, do
not process food that is so hard or rmly
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.
