PEELING WITH THE PEELER

Potato peeling made easy

Take the hard work out of peeling potatoes.
The Breville peeler will peel potatoes in
batches of 6–7, depending on the size. Peeling
is very fast, and may finish quicker than
expected. Keep your eye on progress, and it
should be done in 25–40 seconds.

Size matters

The best size potatoes to use are around
2 ¾" x 2 ¾", which is about the size of this
illustration. Choose potatoes that are round,
rather than elongated.
Use whole potatoes, as cutting potatoes into
half or quarters creates square edges that won't
peel efficiently. Using rounder potatoes will
reduce the amount of waste.
Loading the potatoes
Position 6–7 potatoes evenly on top of the
peeler. Potatoes should have enough room
to freely roll and rumble. If potatoes are too
tightly packed, the peeling won't be as effective.
Keep in mind that the peeling works best with
a complete batch, and peeling just a couple
of potatoes won't be as efficient. Lock lid in
place before starting, and never insert potatoes
through the chute.
How long to peel
Peeling is very quick, with most potatoes
taking 25–30 seconds. Less time in the peeler
means less waste, but you may have to remove
the eyes by hand with a paring knife. More
time in the peeler will take a thicker layer off,
including most of the eyes.
TIP
Set the Timer to 25 seconds and review the
results when the product stops. Add extra time
if required for optimum results.
The best size potato
for the peeling disc is
around 2¾" x 2¾".
Choose potatoes that are
round, rather than elongated.

Peeling other produces

The peeler disc can peel potatoes very well but
it can also be used to peel other firm, round
produces. You get great results with little waste
when peeling beets.
It can also peel carrots and sweet potatoes.
Depending on the size, we recommend cutting
carrots and sweet potatoes in 2-3 pieces before
placing them into the bowl.
CHOPPING WITH THE MICRO-
SERRATED S-BLADE™
The micro-serrated S-blade chops raw and
cooked food to the consistency required,
from coarsely chopped to minced. The blades
process very efficiently, and may take less time
than expected to process many large tasks.
Always remember to place the spindle and
S-blade into the processing bowl before adding
the food.
Avoid over-processing by checking the
consistency frequently. For many tasks, we
recommend using the PULSE button, as it may
only take a few seconds to fully process food to
your desired consistency.
If necessary, turn the POWER off and use a
spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl to
encourage even processing.
Raw vegetables, fruit and cooked meats
Trim and cut food into 1 inch cubes.
Process no more than 7 cups at a time using
the PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals until
chopped to desired size or consistency.
