Food
Processor because you love the way it looks in your
kitchen, but superior performance is what’s made this
versatile food prep tool a legend. You’ll use it every
day, for jobs as small as mincing a clove of garlic, to
major tasks like kneading 3 pounds of bread dough.
The bigger feed tube is easier to handle, and means
less precutting. And, as always, everything except
the base is dishwasher safe. It’s the beginning of a
long, delicious – and easy – relationship. Enjoy!
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The machine includes:
1. Motor base with a vertically projecting shaft and
two large control levers.
2. 14-Cup Work bowl.
3. Cover with a large feed tube.
4. Pusher assembly that slides over the feed tube.
The pusher assembly has 2 parts:
a. A small, removable, clear pusher that fits
into a small center-located feed tube. This
tube is for narrow food like carrots, for
adding liquid, and for continuous feeding
of small hard food like garlic.
b. A large pusher.
5. Plastic spatula.
6. Sharp metal chopping/mixing blade.
The metal blade chops raw and cooked fruits,
vegetables, meat, fish and cheese to the exact
consistency you want – from coarse to fine, even
to a purée. You control the texture. It chops nuts,
makes nut butters, mayonnaise and sauces, and
mixes tender, flaky pastry. The metal blade also
handily mixes cakes, frostings, cookies, quick
breads, muffins, and biscuits.
7. Plastic dough blade.
The dough blade mixes and kneads more
efficiently than the metal blade when your recipe
calls for more than 3-1/2 cups of flour.
8. Serrated slicing disc.
The slicing disc makes beautiful whole slices
with no torn edges. It slices whole fruits and
vegetables, cooked meat, semi-frozen raw meat
and loaves of bread.
9. Shredding disc.
The shredding disc processes most firm and
hard cheese into long, attractive shreds. It also
shreds vegetables like potatoes, carrots and
zucchini, and it processes nuts and chocolate
to a grated texture.
10. Detachable stem that fits both discs.
The detachable stem fits both discs, making
storage easy in limited space.
