Placing into Operation
with Food Processor Blade
Make sure that the power unit is on a
smooth, clean, suitable work surface and
switched to the Off, “O/Off,” position. Unwind
the electrical cord to the necessary length
and plug into a convenient outlet. The 5-cup
capacity bowl with food processor blade is
now ready for operation.
The processor blade sits low in the bowl,
near the bottom. Food to be processed must
be fed through the feeding funnel using the
pusher. The food is then minced or pureed
near the bottom of the bowl by the spinning
blade. Food should be prepared as usual
(wash, dry, peel, etc.) and cut into pieces
to readily fit through the feeding funnel.
The degree of mincing desired, to a great
extent, depends upon the intended purpose
and the individual taste of the preparer, so
the times listed below in the examples
should be taken as a general guide only.
Also, the processing times depend upon
the quantity of food being processed; that
is, for small quantities and/or coarser result,
use a shorter operating time, for larger
quantities and/or finer result, use a longer
operating time.
Examples of Use of Food Processor
To familiarize you with the operation of the
food processor, below you will find some
typical uses:
• Herbs (except chives)
Place herbs, up to an amount of
approximately 1 tablespoon (10 g.) into
the bowl dry. Use speed 4, or “M,” the
momentary “pulse” position, for 20-30
seconds.
• Onions or Garlic
Cut onions into quarters.   Processing
approximately 1/4 pound at a time
(100 g.) use “M,” briefly (5-7 seconds)
until desired consistency is obtained.
• Almonds, nuts
Place nuts approximately 1/4 pound at a
time (100 g.) into the bowl dry. Use speed
4 for approximately 1 - 1 1/2 minutes.
• Meat
Do not process more than 3/4 of a pound
at a time (375 g.). Remove the bones,
gristle and tendons and cut meat into
pieces suitable to fit through the feeding
tube.
Note: Before processing, spices or bread
maybe added as called for in your recipe.
Use speed 4, or “M,” until desired result
is obtained (approximately 30 - 60
seconds).
• Pureeing
Fruits, vegetables and cheeses with
ingredients and spices may also be
processed. Do not process more than
3/4 of a pound at a time (375 g.). Use
speed 4 or “M” until desired  result is
obtained (approx. 1 minute).
• Mayonnaise
Using the recipe from the blender section,
place ingredients into the food processor
bowl, except the final 2/3 cup of vegetable
oil. Mix all the ingredients briefly, then
add the rest of the vegetable oil. Use
speed for approximately 1 1/2 minutes.
