Page 12 highlights

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS USING THE REVERSIBLE SLICING/SHREDDING DISC OR SLICING DISC To slice or shred fruits or vegetables that are long and relatively small in diameter, such as celery, carrots, and bananas: Cut food to fit feed tube vertically or horizontally, and pack so that the food is supported. It should not be packed so tightly that it cannot move freely. Process using even pressure with the food pusher, or use the small feed tube in the two-piece food pusher. Position food vertically in the tube and use the small food pusher to process food. To slice or shred fruits and vegetables that are round, such as onions, apples, and green peppers: Peel, core, and remove seeds. Cut in halves or quarters to fit feed tube. Position in feed tube. Process using even pressure with the food pusher. To slice or shred fruits and vegetables that are small, such as strawberries, mushrooms, and radishes: Position food vertically or horizontally in layers within the feed tube. Fill feed tube in order to keep food positioned properly. Process using even pressure with the food pusher, or use the small feed tube in the two-piece food pusher. Position food vertically in the tube and use the small food pusher to process food. To slice uncooked meat or poultry, such as stir-fry meats: Cut or roll food to fit feed tube. Wrap and freeze food until hard to the touch, 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on thickness of food. Check to be sure you can still pierce food with the tip of a sharp knife. If not, allow to thaw slightly. Process using even pressure with the food pusher. To slice cooked meat or poultry, including salami, pepperoni, etc.: Food should be very cold. Cut in pieces to fit feed tube. Process food using firm, even pressure with the food pusher. To shred spinach and other leaves: Stack leaves. Roll up and stand up in feed tube. Process using even pressure with the food pusher. To shred firm and soft cheeses: Firm cheese should be very cold. For best results with soft cheeses, such as mozzarella, freeze 10-15 minutes before processing. Cut to fit feed tube. Process using even pressure with the food pusher. USING THE DOUGH BLADE The dough blade is specially designed for mixing and kneading yeast dough quickly and thoroughly. For the best results, do not knead recipes that use more than 3 cups (710 mL) of flour. Use Pulse to mix the dry ingredients, then High when adding liquids. 12 | TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS W11212365A.indb 12 5/8/2018 11:23:10 AM
