hints

• When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil, into the liquidiser. Remove the filler cap.
  Then, with the appliance running, add the oil slowly through the hole in the lid.

• Thick mixtures, e.g. pâtés and dips, may need scraping down. If the mixture is difficult to process, add more liquid.

• Ice crushing – operate the pulse in short bursts until crushed to the desired consistency.

• The processing of spices is not recommended as they may damage the plastic parts.

• The appliance will not work if the liquidiser is fitted incorrectly.

• To blend dry ingredients – cut into pieces, remove the filler cap, then with the appliance running, drop the pieces down one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. For best results empty regularly.

• Don’t use the liquidiser as a storage container. Keep it empty before and after use.

• Never blend more than 1 litre (13⁄4 pts) – less for frothy liquids like milkshakes.

recommended speed chart

using the attachments

knife blade
This blade is the most versatile of all the attachments.
The texture you get is determined by the length of processing time. For coarser textures use the ‘pulse’ feature checking the consistency regularly.

hints

• Cut food such as meat, bread, vegetables into cubes approximately 2cm/3/4in before processing.
• Biscuits and bread should be broken into pieces and added down the feed tube whilst the appliance is running.
• When making pastry use fat straight from the fridge cut into 2cm/3/4in.cubes. Take care not to over-process.
• Cake Making – Sponge type cakes are best made by the ‘all in one method’. A ‘soft tub’ margarine used straight from the refrigerator and cut into 2cm/3⁄4in cubes should always be used. Process until smooth.
• Mayonnaise – Place the egg and seasonings into the bowl and mix for a few seconds. With the machine running gradually add the oil down the feed tube in a slow steady stream.
• Yeast dough- Place the flour, fat and other dry ingredients into the bowl and process for a few seconds to mix. With the machine running add the liquid mixture down the feed tube and continue processing until the mixture forms a dough and becomes smooth in appearance and elastic to touch this will take 45-60 seconds. Allow the dough to rise then re-knead for 10 seconds.

whisk
Use for egg whites and cream only. The whisk is unsuitable for other recipes. Make sure the bowl and whisk are free from any traces of grease or egg yolk when whisking egg whites.

slicing and shredding plates what the cutting plates can do. slicing plate – slices carrots, potato, cabbage, cucumber, courgette, beetroot, onion. shredding plate – grates cheese, carrot, potato and foods of a similar texture. to assemble the plate carrier

1. Select the desired plate and fit into the carrier with the cutting side uppermost.
   • Locate one end of the plate under the rim and press the other end into position. It will only fit one way round 4.

using the cutting plates

shredding plate
Cut pieces of food to fit the feed tube. Fill the tube almost to the top and push down using the pusher with an even pressure whilst the machine is running.
Longer shreds can be obtained by stacking pieces horizontally in the feed tube eg carrot.

slicing plate
If necessary cut food to fit the feed tube. Core foods such as apples and peppers. Pack the food in an upright position in the feed tube. The height should be slightly shorter than the feed tube. Using the pusher,push down with an even pressure whilst the machine is running.

hints

• Use fresh ingredients.
• Don’t cut food up too small. Fill the feed tube fairly full, this prevents food from slipping sideways during processing.
• When slicing or shredding: food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed horizontally.
• After using a cutting plate there will always be a small amount of waste on the plate or in the food.
• Do not allow food to build up to the underside of the plate – empty regularly.
• Push food down the feed tube using an even pressure.

maxi blend canopy
When blending, use the maxi blend canopy in conjunction with the knife blade. It allows you to increase the liquid processing capacity of the bowl and improve the chopping performance of the blade.

• Place the canopy into the bowl over the knife blade – do not push down 5.
• Fit the lid 6.

citrus press (if supplied)
The citrus press is used to juice citrus fruit ie oranges, lemons, limes and grapefruits.

1. Fit the bowl onto the processor. Add the strainer and turn clockwise until the fin on the strainer aligns with the mark on the processor body 7.
2. Attach the cone onto the drive shaft turning until it drops all the way down 8
3. Cut the fruit in half. Switch on and press the fruit onto the cone.

Remove the dough into either a greased polythene bag or a lightly floured bowl and cover. Leave this dough in a warm place until doubled in size. Return the risen dough to the processor bowl fitted with the knife blade and reknead for about 10 seconds. Shape the dough into a loaf or about 15 rolls and place on greased baking trays and leave until double in size. Bake at 230°C/450°F/gas mark 8 for 20-25 minutes for a loaf or 10-15 minutes for bread rolls. When the loaf or rolls are cooked they should sound hollow when tapped on the base.
