Blender feet

Note: The blender feet are not suitable for preparing purées consisting only of potatoes or foods with a similar consistency.
The blender feet are suitable for the following purposes:

Mixing drinks
Making pancake batter, mayonnaise, sauces and baby food
Puréeing cooked food, e.g. fruit, vegetables, soup

Processing food with the blender foot
Notes

Solid foods should always be cut up and cooked until soft before processing, e.g. apples, potatoes or meat.
Use the universal cutter for cutting up raw food without adding liquid, e.g. onions, garlic or herbs.
Before processing the food in a pan, take the pan off the heat.
→ Fig. 3 – 11

Sample recipe Mayonnaise

1 egg (egg yolk and egg white)
1 tbsp mustard
1 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar
200-250 ml oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Making mayonnaise
Notes

When using the blender foot, mayonnaise can only be made with whole eggs (egg white and egg yolk).
When making mayonnaise, air underneath the blender foot prevents the ingredients blending together well. For optimum results, let the air escape before mixing.
→ Fig. 12 – 16

Universal cutter

The universal cutter is suitable for cutting up food, e.g. meat, hard cheese, onions, garlic, fruit, vegetables, herbs, nuts or almonds.
Notes

Remove hard pieces of food before processing, e.g. gristle, bones, sinews or stones from stone fruit.
The universal cutter is not suitable for cutting up very hard ingredients, e.g. coffee beans, nutmegs, radishes or frozen food.
Only process ice cubes with the ice crusher blade.
