Tips for best results
• Remove uneatable and hard parts of the food: stalks, skins and shells, seeds, bones,
gristle, and tendons.
• Process damp or soft food in short intervals.
• For chopping nuts and almonds, dry the ingredients before processing. Otherwise the
ingredients could go lumpy.
• Do not overfill the container. It is good advice to process your food in small portions.
• An even processing of the food is reached by filling in pieces of the same size.
