Hard cheese
(Example: Parmesan, Romano)
If the cheese cannot be pierced with the
tip of a sharp knife, it is too hard to process.
Do not use your Food Pro for processing.
If the cheese can be pierced with the tip
of a sharp knife, it is okay to continue.
Soft Cheese can be shredded with the
shredding disks, but when attempting to
shred hard cheese, you can use the multi-
purpose blade.
Place 1-inch pieces into the work bowl.
Process, using short pulses, until coarsely
chopped. Process continuously until finely
grated. Pieces of cheese can also added
through the feed chute while the processor
is running.
Soft cheese
For best results with soft cheeses, such
as mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes
before processing. Cut to fit feed chute.
Process, using even pressure.

Use the Slicing Disk to prepare julienne
or matchstick style strips of produce.
Place food into feed chute horizontally.

pressure to make plank like slices.
Place plank like slices into feed chute
again. Position the planks vertically
for shorter pieces or horizontally for
longer pieces. Process, using even pressure.

Cut or roll food to fit feed chute.
Wrap and freeze food until hard to
the touch, 30 minutes to 2 hours,
depending on thickness of food.
Check to be sure you can still pierce
food with the tip of a sharp knife.
If not, allow items to thaw slightly.
Process, using even pressure.
