6 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of the Cuisinart ® Prep 11 Plus ™ Food Processor . This product is the ultimate food preparation tool, and it comes from the originator of the American food processor, Cuisinart.
THE MACHINE INCLUDES: 1. Housing base with a vertically projecting shaft and convenient touchpad control panel. 2. 1 1-cup (2.7L) work bowl. 3. Cover with extra large feed tube. 4. Pusher assembly that slides inside the feed tube. 5. Unique metal dough blade, designed specifically for our dough speed control.
8 4. With the stem facing down, place the assembly over the center hub. It should fit snugly and rest on the bottom of the work bowl. 5. Place work bowl cover onto work bowl, with the handle area just to the left of center. Turn counterclockwise to lock onto work bowl.
9 Never try to remove the pusher, lid and work bowl together; as a safety feature, the pusher assembly must be removed before the lid and work bowl can be unlocked. They can then both be unlocked at the same time. Remove the bowl from the base of the machine before removing the blade.

12 Process by pulsing, inspecting after each pulse. Stop pulsing as soon as the dry ingredients have almost disappeared into the batter. Overprocessing will cause quick breads and cakes to be tough. (If your recipe calls for ingredients that are to be coarsely chopped – like raisins or nuts – add them last with the mixed dry ingredients.

15 Otherwise, you may damage the slicing disc or the food processor itself. TECHNIQUES FOR KNEADING YEAST DOUGH WITH THE POWERPREP ® METAL DOUGH BLADE The Prep 11 Plus ™ Food Processor is designed to mix and knead dough in a fraction of the time it takes to do it by hand.
16 Add liquid in a slow, steady stream, only as fast as dry ingredients absorb it. If liquid sloshes or splatters, stop adding it but do not turn off the machine. Wait until ingredients in bowl have mixed, then add remaining liquid slowly . Pour liquid onto dough as it passes under feed tube opening.
Dough doesn’t clean inside of work bowl: • Am ou nt of do ug h m ay e x c e e d m a x i m u m ca p a c i t y o f y o u r f o o d p r o ce s s o r .
18 Metal dough blade rises in work bowl: Blade may not have been pushed down as far as possible before processing started. Machine may be overloaded. Remove half of dough and process in 2 batches.
19 Never put blades or discs on the motor shaft until the work bowl is locked in place. Always be sure that the blade or disc is down on motor shaft as far as it will go. Always insert chopping blade and dough blade in the work bowl before putting ingredients in bowl.
