A food processor can be a handy machine to keep in your kitchen. Created in 1970, this appliance has become every kitchen owner's top priority. Cuisinart is a famous brand of home appliances and you can find Cuisinart parts easily all over the world from various vendors.
To get the best out of the machine, you should always know how to use it properly. You can cut or chop a number of vegetables and fruits which include cabbages, carrots, radishes, apples and even cheese. Cheddar or mozzarella cheese can easily be shredded in this machine.
Cuisinart Food Processor
The first thing you need to do when you want to shred something is to choose the appropriate blade fitting and insert it into the food processor. After that, lock the lid onto the bowl and fix it in the processor. This will allow the machine to run. Cut off the leaves and the other unwanted parts of fruits or vegetables and put these in the feed tube of the processor. Always remember to fill the bowl according to the suggested level; otherwise the contents may seep out, creating a mess that you will have to clean up.
If you want, you can move the plastic pusher to move the food around the bowl. You can use this machine for cutting vegetables, crushing biscuits and crackers for crust making, to smooth sauces and also for pureeing your baby's food. You can use the S-shaped blade for preparing soups. You only need to add broth and vegetable chunks (these can include potatoes, carrots and onions, for example) and turn your machine on for about thirty seconds. For chopping other kinds of food without pureeing it, always use the pulse button rather than turning the food processor on so that you can arrive at your desired consistency.
You can also use your processor to shred nuts with the help of a grinding blade. When you switch on your processor it will chop the nuts into the shape of a ball, which it will then convert into a thin butter paste. You can easily chop almonds and peanuts in it but it might be a bit difficult for walnuts and pecans.
For shredding cheese, freeze the cheese block for 20 minutes, put it in the processor and press the pulse button. It will take only a few seconds. If your processor stops working, you can always install new Cuisinart parts to make it functional again.
