The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The
length of the processing time will determine the texture achieved.
For coarser textures use the pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping raw and
cooked meat, vegetables, nuts, pate, dips, pureeing soups and to
also make crumbs from biscuits and bread.
Use the dough tool for yeasted mixes.
hints
knife blade
Cut food such as meat, bread, vegetables into cubes
approximately 2cm/3/4in before processing.
Biscuits should be broken into pieces and added down the feed
tube whilst the machine is running.
When making pastry use fat straight from the fridge cut into
2cm/3/4in.cubes.
Take care not to over-process.
dough tool
Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid down the
feed tube whilst the machine is running. Process until a smooth
elastic ball of dough is formed this will take 60 secs.
Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not
recommended as it may cause the processor to become unstable.
twin beater geared whisk
Use for light mixtures only eg egg whites, cream, evaporated milk
and for whisking eggs and sugar for fatless sponges. Heavier
mixtures such as fat and flour will damage it.

important
The whisk is not suitable for making one-stage cakes
or creaming fat and sugar as these mixes will damage
it. Always use the knife blade for cake making.
hints
Best results are obtained when the eggs are at room temperature.
Ensure the bowl and whisks are clean and free from grease before
whisking.
dough tool
slicing/shredding discs
To use the discs.
reversible slicing/shredding discs - thick

2 Holding by the centre grip, place the disc onto the drive shaft with
the appropriate side uppermost.

5 Switch on and push down evenly with the pusher - never put
your fingers in the feed tube.
hints
Use fresh ingredients
Don't cut food too small. Fill the width of the feed tube fairly full.
This prevents the food from slipping sideways during processing.
Food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed
horizontal.
There will always be a small amount of waste on the disc or in the
bowl after processing.

oranges, lemons, limes and grapefruits).
