Handy Blending Hints • Nothing can beat a blender for making smooth purees and sauces or for whipping up frothy drinks - from healthy breakfast shakes to frozen daiquiris. • Use your blender for chopping small amounts of food like nuts, bread crumbs and whole spices. • Turn any oil-based salad dressing into a creamy style dressing by blending it until slightly thickened. • A brief whirl in the blender will rescue a lumpy gravy, or an egg-based sauce that has separated.
Care and Cleaning Quick cleaning method. Half fill the blender with warm water and a small amount of detergent. Press the PULSE button for 10-20 seconds. Then remove the jug and rinse it under running water. For thorough cleaning. Turn the blender jug upside down. Unscrew the six-blade assembly from the glass jug by placing the open end of the ingredient cap at the base of the blade assembly. Use the 5 grooves on the opening of the ingredient cap to align the cap to the base of the glass jug.
