Processing Tips and
Techniques
• For a uniform consistency when
chopping, leave room in the bowl for
the food to be tossed around.
• For a consistent texture, foods
should be cut into 1-inch cubes
before mincing or chopping with the
Chopping/Mixing Blade.
• Do not puree or mash starchy
vegetables like potatoes. They will
be over-processed in a second and
turn gummy.
• Operating time will depend on quantity
of food being processed. Most foods
can be sliced, chopped, or shredded
in seconds. Do not operate processor
for more than 1 minute at a time. If
processing large quantities, let the
processor rest about 1 minute before
continuing.
• The bowl will hold 2 cups of liquid.
Refer to Food Processing Charts for
other capacities. Do not overfill.
NOTE: To maintain peak performance,
and to prevent etching or clouding of
the bowl, do not use your food proces-
sor for the following:
– grinding grain, coffee beans or spices
– slicing frozen meat; or crushing ice.
