FOOD PROCESSING TIPS
Using a Slicing or a Shredding Disc
NOTE: When cutting and packing food items in the Ultra Wide
Mouth™ feed tube, do not exceed the maximum fill line; this will
permit the pusher to engage the interlock and the unit to operate.
To cut julienne or match-stick strips of vegetables and fruits:
Cut food to fit feed tube horizontally. Position food horizontally in
feed tube. Process, applying even pressure to make plank-like slices.
Re-stack slices and position vertically or horizontally in feed tube.
Process, applying even pressure.

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 feed
tube securely to keep food properly positioned. Process, applying
even pressure. 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 the food.
To slice or shred fruits and vegetables that are round,
such as onions, apples, and green peppers:
Peel, core, and/or remove seeds. Cut into halves or quarters to fit
feed tube. Position in feed tube and process, applying even pressure.
