HELPFUL HINTS

Different foods require varying degrees of pressure for best shredding and slicing results.
In general, apply light pressure for soft, delicate foods (strawberries, tomatoes, etc.),
moderate pressure for medium foods (zucchini, potatoes, etc.), and firmer pressure for
harder foods (carrots, apples, hard cheeses, partially frozen meats, etc.).

Never process any food that is so hard or firmly frozen that it cannot be pierced with
the tip of a sharp knife. Hard food can cause damage to the blade or motor. If a piece
of hard food, such as carrot, becomes wedged or stuck on the blade, stop the processor
and remove the blade. Using special care, remove food from the blade.
When preparing a cake or cookie batter or quick bread, use the multipurpose blade
to cream fat and sugar first. Add dry ingredients last. Place nuts and fruit on top of
flour mixture to prevent overchopping. Process nuts and fruits with short pulses
until blended with other ingredients. Do not overprocess.
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 food.

To capitalize on the speed of the processor, drop ingredients to be chopped through
the small feed tube while the processor is running.
