TIPS FOR PROCESSING FOOD AND S EL EC TING THE RIGHT
OPERATION CONTROL
CHOPPING: Make sure that the bowl, blade and cover are in proper position.
The “LO” and “HI” pulse buttons are designated for chopping, pureeing and mix-
ing food. Use this function also for soft foods such as herbs, celery, onions, garlic,
sauces and in preparation of salad dressings. Normally, 2 or 3 pulses are enough for
chopping. Several pulse actions will help the food drop to the bottom for better
chopping. Check the food frequently to prevent over processing.
GRINDING: Make sure that the bowl, blade and cover are in proper position.
The “LO” and “HI” pulse buttons are designated for grinding coffee beans, dry
fruits, hard cheese, chocolate, etc. For these foods, use continuous pulse for several
seconds. The desired result for preparing seeds or coffee will always depend on
taste but 20 to 40 seconds is normally enough.
BLENDING: Make sure the blender container and cover are in proper position.
Blend for 30 seconds to one minute and check consistency. Continue blending
until the desired consistency is reached. Over-blending will result in loose consis-
tency.
A scraper may be used (not included), but must only be used when the blender is
not running. Thick mixtures require special attention during blending. Periodi-
cally turn off the unit and scrape the mixture off of the sides of the container in-
ward toward the blade. Replace the cover and continue blending. Select a higher
speed if blending becomes sluggish. When the measuring cup is removed, you can
add ingredients a little at a time through the hole in the blender cover. Always cut
solid foods such as cheese or vegetables into small chunks before placing in the
blender.
NOTE: always operate the Chopper & Blender Prep System with the cover in
place.
