Slicing And Shredding; Making Dough - Cuisinart MP14NE Gebrauchsanweisung

Chopping nuts
Place the nuts in the bowl and press the button
times, checking frequently to avoid nuts clumping together in
the bowl. Use the spatula to
distribute the nuts around the bowl.
B. Slicing and shredding
Slicing whole fruit and vegetables
For slicing onions, apples or other round, medium-sized fruit
and vegetables, cut the bottom ends flat so that the food lies
stable on the disc. Choose fruits or vegetables that are firm
and not too ripe. Remove seeds and large, hard pits from fruits
before processing.
Fill the feed tube according to desired results:
• For long slices or shreds, cut the food in feed-tube widths and
place the pieces horizontally in the feed tube. Do not exceed
the MAX level indicated on the cover.
• For round slices (carrots, cucumber and other long vegetables),
cut the food in feed-tube heights and place them in the feed
tube vertically. Do not exceed the MAX level indicated on the
cover.
IMPORTANT
• Never pack the feed tube too tightly so as not to block the
pusher. Never push down hard on the pusher so as not damage
the appliance. For shredding or slicing bananas, mushrooms,
strawberries, tomatoes or other soft fruit or vegetables, push
very gently to avoid crushing the fruit or vegetable.
• Always use the pusher for shredding or slicing food. Never
put your fingers or the spatula in the feed tube.
Slicing raw meat or poultry
Cut the food to the size of the width of the feed tube opening.
Place them in the freezer until they are hard to the touch, but
can still be pierced easily with the tip of a sharp knife. Pack the
food in the opening with the flat side of the meat or poultry on
the disc and press on the pusher to slice.
Slicing cooked meat or poultry
The food should be cold, if possible cut into pieces the size of
the width of the feed tube opening. For slicing sausages, use
the small feed tube. Put the pieces in vertically, packing them
so that they cannot fall sideways when the disc starts turning.

Slicing cheese
Not all cheese can be sliced. Usually, soft cheeses will not
several
slice successfully and attempting to slice very hard cheeses
can damage the disc or the appliance itself. Never try to slice
cheese that is too hard to cut with a knife. Please refer to the
chart and the comments in section 7 of this booklet, 'Advice
from Chefs' .
C. Making dough
This appliance is designed to prepare dough in very little
time.
There are two types of dough:
• Typical bread dough is made with yeast and a mixture of flours
containing at least 50% white flour. It is usually prepared with
water. It is uniform, soft and slightly sticky to the touch. When
it is properly processed, it forms a ball.
• Dough for sweet or salty preparations contains a greater
proportion of sugar, butter and/or eggs and is often prepared
with milk. It is a rich and sticky dough that does not always
form a ball after processing.
The two types of dough are prepared using the 'dough' button
. All you need to do is press the button and a light will
come on, indicating that you have selected the setting
Maximum capacity
The maximum capacity for white flour is 700g and the capacity
for whole wheat flour is 40g.
IMPORTANT
Use the dough blade for quantities greater than 400g. Because
this blade does not extend to the outer rim of the work bowl,
it cannot mix in all the flour if there is not enough. For this
reason, it is recommended that you use the chopping/mixing
blade to prepare quantities of dough less than 400g.
