TIPS AND HINTS
•
Use the food pusher when slicing .
•
For perfect small dice, use the slicing blade to first slice ingredients, then dice
using the small dicing grid .
•
For perfect large dice, cut vegetables like carrots and potatoes into ¼–½-inch
planks before using the large dicing grid .
•
Peel harder vegetables like carrots and potatoes before dicing for best results .
•
When dicing a lot of ingredients, shake the collection container between uses to
disperse the diced ingredients . Keep the area below the grid clear so the newly
diced ingredients have somewhere to fall . This will help prevent clogging and
maximize the amount of ingredients you can dice without emptying the collection
container into a larger bowl .
•
For best results, especially when dicing soft ingredients, use the cleaning tool to
clean the teeth and the dicing blade between each use .
•
When using the small dicing blade, foods should be ripe but not soft – soft foods
may not dice properly .

•
Hard and semi-soft cheeses .
•
All pitted fruits and veggies . Harder veggies like carrots, butternut squash and
sweet potatoes should be cut into ¼-inch planks before dicing or slicing .
