7. ADVICE FROM CHEFS
1. Do not fill the food processor bowl completely in
order to avoid uneven results and unnecessary
stress on the motor. Generally, the bowl should not
be more than 2/3 full.
2. Dry rinsed herbs before chopping them so that
they last longer. Seal them in an airtight bag; they
will keep in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.
3. To emulsify a preparation (vinaigrette, mayonnaise,
Béarnaise, etc.) first use the chop mode to thicken
the preparation then, to bind the mixture, use the
grind mode while adding the liquid very gradually
through the drip-feed spout.
4. When buying ingredients, select whole spices and
grind them as needed using your mini processor to
maximize the aromas and flavours.
5. To preserve the flavours of whole spices, use
airtight jars that have a rubber gasket.
6. To make whipped cream quickly, pour a little cold
cream into the bowl of the mini processor and press
the chop button for 40 seconds. The result is ideal.
For a Chantilly cream, add a little sugar at the end of
preparation.
7. The mini processor lets you create quick, flavourful
purees for your children: use the chop mode to mix
vegetables and meats or vegetables and fish, and
grind mode to emulsify with melted butter, olive oil
or cream.

9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

You can leave your appliance on the worktop of your
kitchen. Disconnect it when not in use. Do not leave
the lid in locked position in order to avoid damage to
the mechanism.
The blade should be stored out of the reach of
children.
All components of your appliance, except for the
motor base, can be put in the dishwasher. We
recommend to rinse the preparation bowl, lid and
blade immediately after use so as to avoid drying of
the foods.
Answers:
Careful not to overfill the
bowl.
Use the reversible motor
option by pressing
alternatively on the chop
and the grind buttons.
This will distribute the
ingredients more evenly
in the bowl.
For better mixing, add
the liquid ingredients
only once the appliance
is running.
Make sure the safety
interlock on the lid is
engaged properly onto
the back of the mini
processor.
