(4) Julienne Operation: Insertion of the product to be cut must be horizontal if a long "stick" is to be
achieved, e.g. julienne zucchini for saute. Vertical insertion will result in finely chopped products, e.g. celery.
A finely chopped onion product may also be obtained with this operation by quartering the food and letting it
gravity feed.
Never attempt to julienne meats or cheeses.
B. PLATE UTILIZATION:
The standard machine comes with two (2) plates. Check your most current price list for which plates are
included as standard. User applications may require additional plates. The Robot Coupe processor will
perform a variety of functions: slicing, grating, dicing, and julienne. There are a total of 34 different plates
available to perform these functions (see below). The number and type of plates required will vary, depend-
ing upon the planned utilization.
8 slicing plates
8 grating plates
5 dicing plates
7 julienne plates
3 wave slicing plates

The eight (8) slicing plates range form 1mm (approx. 1/64") to 14mm (approx. 1/2"):

The C444SA (1/32") slicing plate offers a very fine cut. A possible use for such a fine cut is the preparation
of Japanese style vegetables. Typically these products (such as carrots or celery) will be placed in the
pusher horizontally to obtain a long thin product.
The C445SA (5/64") slicing plate finds a variety of applications. Cabbage may be sliced with this plate for
New York Style Cole Slaw. Carrot curls which adorn many dishes can be achieved with this slicer. The
carrot slices should be dropped into cold water to permit curling. A nice carrot coin for salads can also be
obtained.
The C446SA (1/8") slicing plate is ideal for salad bars ie., cucumber slices, carrot "coins" (vertically sliced
carrots). Lettuce sliced by this plate is readily used for sandwiches, tacos, etc.
The C477SA (5/32") and C437SA (3/16") slicing plates are also ideal for salad bar use, for the stock pot
where thicker "man" size cuts are desired. This blade is excellent also for orange or lemon slices as well as
tomatoes, where a nice smooth surface is desired. NOTE: You can not slice meats or cheeses on any food
processor.
The C434SA, C435SA, C436SA slicing plates are used in conjunction with the dicing grids. In addition
thicker slices can be obtained for use in soups and stews. The C434SA (9/16") slicer also provides an
excellent cut of lettuce for use in a salad.
