knife blade

The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The
length of the processing time will determine the texture achieved.
For coarser textures use the pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping raw
and cooked meat, vegetables, nuts, pâté, dips, pureeing soups
and to also make crumbs from biscuits and bread.
hints
Cut food such as meat, bread, vegetables into cubes
G
approximately 2cm/3/4in before processing.
Biscuits should be broken into pieces and added down the feed
G
tube whilst the appliance is running.
When making pastry use fat straight from the fridge cut into
G
2cm/3/4in.cubes.
Take care not to over-process.

cn

dough tool

Use for yeasted dough mixes.
Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid down the
G
feed tube whilst the appliance is running. Process until a smooth
elastic ball of dough is formed this will take approx. 45-60 secs.
Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not
G
recommended as it may cause the processor to become unstable.
co
dual whisk
Use for light mixtures only e.g. egg whites, cream, evaporated
milk and for whisking eggs and sugar for fatless sponges.
Heavier mixtures such as fat and flour will damage it.

mixes as these mixes are too heavy and will damage
it. Always use the knife blade.
hints

G
temperature.
Ensure the bowl and whisks are clean and free from grease
G
before whisking.
Heavier ingredients such as flour and dried fruit should be folded
G
in by hand.
Do not exceed the maximum capacity or processing time stated

hints
Do not use Auto or high speed as a low speed is required to
G
optimise the folding performance.
For best results do not over whisk egg whites or cream – the
G
folding tool will not be able to fold the mixture correctly if the
whisked mix is too firm.
Do not fold the mixture for longer than stated in the
G
recommended speed chart as the air will be knocked out and
the mix will be too loose.
Any unmixed ingredients left on the paddle or sides of the bowl
G
should be carefully folded in using the spatula.
