using the attachments
see chart above for speed of each attachment.
ቫ knife blade
The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The
length of the processing time will determine the texture achieved.
For coarser textures use the pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping raw
and cooked meat, vegetables, nuts, pate, dips, pureeing soups
and to also make crumbs from biscuits and bread.
It can also be used for yeasted dough mixes.
hints
knife blade
● Cut food such as meat, bread, vegetables into cubes
approximately 2cm/3/4in before processing.
● Biscuits should be broken into pieces and added down the feed
tube whilst the machine is running.
● When making pastry use fat straight from the fridge cut into
2cm/3/4in.cubes.
● Take care not to over-process.
dough
● Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid down the
feed tube whilst the machine is running. Process until a smooth
elastic ball of dough is formed this will take 60 secs.
● Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not
recommended as it may cause the processor to become
unstable.
ቭ emulsifying tool / whisk
Use for egg whites and cream only.
hints
● Best results are obtained when the eggs are at room
temperature.
● Ensure the bowl and whisk are clean and free from grease before
whisking.
ቮ
slicing/shredding discs
To use the discs
reversible slicing/shredding discs - thick
Use the shredding side for cheese, carrots, potatoes and foods
of a similar texture.
Use the slicing side for cheese, carrots, potatoes, cabbage,
cucumber, courgette, beetroot and onions.
safety
● Never remove the lid until the cutting disc has
completely stopped.
● Handle the cutting discs with care - they are
extremely sharp
to use the cutting discs
1 Fit the drive shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
2 Holding by the centre grip, place the disc onto the drive shaft with
the appropriate side uppermost.
3 Fit the lid.
4 Put the food in the feed tube.
5 Switch on and push down evenly with the pusher - never put
your fingers in the feed tube.
hints
● Use fresh ingredients
● Don’t cut food too small. Fill the width of the feed tube fairly full.
This prevents the food from slipping sideways during processing.
● Food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed
horizontal.
● There will always be a small amount of waste on the disc or in
the bowl after processing.
