Chopping
For the best, most consistent results, you should
try to process pieces of food that are
approximately equal in size. When you break,
cut or tear food into uniform pieces before you
begin processing, the finished results will be
more uniform.
More consistent processing results are achieved
if the container is not overloaded.
Note: When processing a heavy load, check to be
sure Oskar 400 is sitting firmly on the bench top.
Mincing
Pre-cut meat into cubes approximately 2cm
square. Place the pieces in the processing bowl,
replace the cover and process for 15-20 seconds
or until evenly processed.
Vegetables
When processing vegetables such as onions, peel
and quarter. Place into processing bowl and turn
the unit ‘On’ and ‘Off’ 1 or 2 times to coarsely
chop, 3 to 4 times to finely chop. Scrape sides of
the container once or twice during processing if
necessary.
Mixing
The quantities that can be processed within the
processing bowl will vary with the density of the
mixture.
Adding Ingredients
When various recipes require dry ingredients
such as flour, add them directly into the
processing bowl before processing. There is no
need to shift ingredients when using your Oskar
400. Liquid ingredients may be added by pouring
the required amount through the pouring hole
in the cover.
Note: When processing sauces or semi-liquid
ingredients, stop the food processor and scrape
down the container sides and cover if necessary.
Blending
When blending liquids (eg: soup or drinks),
apply pressure to the cover to prevent leakage.
If contents are very hot, place a cloth over the
cover, before applying pressure.
Using the Feed Tube
The most important factor for successful slicing
and shredding is the way in which food is
packed into the feed tube.
When Slicing and Shredding
Cut all ingredients to a size that fits comfortably
into the feed tube. Pack the feed tube and while
holding food steady and upright with the food
pusher, press down evenly until all ingredients are
sliced or shredded. The more firmly you push, the
thicker the slices or shreds. Do not use excessive
force or you may damage the Oskar 400.
Note: Never use fingers to push food down the
feed tube. Always use the food pusher.
