Page 27 highlights

FOOD PROCESSING TIPS To mince garlic, or to chop fresh herbs or small quantities of vegetables: With processor running, add food through the small feed tube. Process until chopped. For best results, make sure work bowl and ingredients are very dry before chopping garlic or fresh herbs. To chop nuts or make nut butters: Process up to 3 cups of nuts to desired texture, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. For a coarser texture, process smaller batches, pulsing 1 or 2 times, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Pulse more often for finer texture. For nut butters, process continuously until smooth. Store in refrigerator. To chop cooked or raw meat, poultry, or seafood: The food should be very cold. Cut in 1-inch pieces. Process up to 21⁄2 pounds at a time to desired size, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Scrape sides of bowl if necessary. To make bread, cookie, or cracker crumbs: Break food into 11⁄2 to 2-inch pieces. Process until fine. For larger pieces, pulse 2 to 3 times, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Then process until fine. To melt chocolate: Combine chocolate and sugar from recipe in work bowl. Process until finely chopped. Heat liquid from recipe. With processor running, pour hot liquid through the small feed tube. Process until smooth. To grate hard cheeses, such as Parmesan and Romano: Never attempt to process cheese that cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. You can use the multipurpose blade to grate hard cheeses. Cut cheese in 1-inch pieces. Place in work bowl. Process, using short pulses, until coarsely chopped. Process continuously until finely grated. Continued... 25
