Chopping Nuts
Pulse ½ cup of nuts (shells removed) on Chop 4 to 5 times. Turn
blender off; scrape blender jar with spatula. Turn blender on and
pulse on Chop 2 to 3 times. Turn blender off. Pulse fewer times for
more coarsely chopped nuts. For best results, process no more
than 1 cup at a time.
Bread, Cookie or Cracker Crumbs
For best results, use day-old bread (drier bread works best). Break
bread slices into ½" pieces, and process no more than 1 cup of
pieces at a time on Mix for 5 to 10 seconds. Crackers and cookies
should also be broken into ½" pieces; process 1 cup at a time on
Mix for 10 to 15 seconds. Turn blender off.
Crushing Ice (Blender Jar Only)
Add up to 10 large ice cubes to blender jar. Press the Ice Crush
button, using short bursts, 10 times or until cubes are the
consistency of snow. Turn blender off. Pulse fewer times if coarsely
chopped ice is desired.
Grating Citrus Zest
For best results, blender jar and cutting assembly must be clean
and dry. Remove zest from fruit in strips (using vegetable peeler).
Use no more than 8 strips at a time (zest of one medium lemon).
Cut strips in half. Add strips and 1 teaspoon sugar (from recipe) to
the blender jar. Blend on Food Processor speed for 15 to 20
seconds. Turn blender off.
Grinding Hard Cheese
Cut cheese into ½" pieces. Blend on Food Processor speed for
30 seconds. Turn blender off. For best results, grind no more
than 3 ounces of cheese at a time.
Whipping Cream
Whip 1 cup of cream (whipping or heavy cream) at a time. Blend
on Mix, and process for 45 to 60 seconds or until creamy and
smooth. If making sweetened cream, add sugar after 10 seconds.
Turn blender off. Makes about 1 cup.
Puréeing Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Rehydrate 1 ounce of tomatoes in 1 cup boiling water. Allow to
sit for 10 minutes or until softened. Add tomatoes and water to
blender jar. Cover and pulse on Food Processor speed 5 times;
then run continuously on Food Processor speed for 15 to 20
seconds. Turn blender off. Drain in fine strainer if desired.
Makes about ½ cup of puréed tomatoes.
