INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of a Cuisinart ® Premier Series 1 1-Cup 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 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.
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 . T urn coun- terclockwise to lock onto work bowl.
turn the cover clockwise to unlock, and remove by lifting it off. Remove the bowl from the base of the machine before removing the blade. This creates a seal to prevent food from leaking. T urn the bowl clockwise to unlock from the base, and lift straight up to remove.
obtain. If completely dry when chopped, parsley and other herbs will keep for at least 4-5 days, stored in an airtight bag in the refrigera- tor . They may be frozen for months, stored in an air- tight container or bag.
10 eggs (for safe food proce- dures, we recommend using pasteurized liquid eggs, or the "cooked egg" recipe on page 52), salt, vinegar or lemon juice, dry mustard, and two table- spoons of the oil until smooth, at least 30 sec- onds. With the machine run- ning, pour 1/4 cup of the oil into the small pusher .
mixed with the sugar and eggs. Then add flavoring and liquid – vanilla, spices, cocoa, etc. Process until mixed. Add the dry ingredi- ents to the work bowl. Process by pulsing, inspecting after each pulse. Stop pulsing as soon as the dry ingredients have almost disappeared into the batter .
potatoes and zucchini. Use firm pressure for hard vegetables like carrots and yams. PRACTICING SLICING AND SHREDDING 1. Insert a slicing or shredding disc, put the cover on the work bowl and insert the food in the feed tube. 2. Slide the pusher into place, and apply pressure to the pusher while pressing down the PULSE button.
optional Square Julienne Disc, you can make square julienne strips in one oper- ation. SLICING MEA T AND POUL TRY Cooked meat and poultry: The food must be very cold.
most cheeses except soft ones. The exception is mozzarella, which shreds well if thoroughly chilled. Hard cheeses like Parmesan shred well only at room temperature. Therefore, only attempt to shred mozzarella when well chilled, and Parmesan when at room temperature.
stop kneading. For a finer texture, add them sooner .) Adding liquids: All liquid should be added through the small feed tube while the machine is run- ning. Add liquid in a slow , steady stream, only as fast as dry ingredients absorb it. If liquid sloshes or splat- ters, stop adding it but do not turn off the machine.
Excessively sticky dough can cause blade to rise even though it cleans inside of work bowl. If dough feels very sticky , reinsert blade and immedi- ately add 2 tablespoons (30 ml) flour through small feed tube while machine is running.
good results after only 30 seconds of kneading. Blade doesn’t incorporate ingredients: Butter or margarine, if not melted, must be cut into tablespoon-size pieces before being added to work bowl. Make sure butter or margarine is at room temperature.
FOR YOUR SAFETY Like all powerful electrical appliances, a Premier Series 1 1 Cup Food Processor should be han- dled with care. Follow these guidelines to protect yourself and your family from misuse that could cause injury . Handle and store metal blades and discs carefully .
