TECHNIQUES FOR USE
For smooth, even, consistent results, foods should be cut into uniform
pieces, 1/2 inch or less. Insert the Cuisinart
®
Quick Prep
®
Hand Blender
into the food to be processed and use a gentle up-and-down action for
blending, mixing and puréeing. For some thicker mixtures, a stronger
motion may be necessary. Always keep the blade below the surface of
liquid/ingredients to prevent spatter. Turn the hand blender off before
lifting it out of the foods you are processing.
As you use your Cuisinart
®
Quick Prep
®
Hand Blender more, you will find
the best method for your favorite recipes.
TO BLEND, MIX OR PUREE
Insert the Cuisinart
®
Quick Prep
®
Hand Blender in the mixture to be
processed. Process on the speed needed to produce optimum results
(use EveryDay Uses and Recipes as a guide). For Shakes/Smoothies,
use the 2-cup mixing container that comes with the hand blender, or a tall
pitcher. To mix instant desserts, use a deep, narrow bowl for best results.
For puréeing, use either the mixing container, an appropriate mixing bowl,
or for soups and hot sauces, use the Quick Prep
®
Hand Blender right in
the pan. Use this technique to prepare fresh, homemade baby foods from
your family favorites (consult your family physician or pediatrician for
appropriate food recommendations).
TO EMULSIFY
(mayonnaise / vinaigrettes)
Place the ingredients in the 2-cup mixing container or an appropriate
mixing bowl. Insert the Quick Prep
®
Hand Blender into the mixture and
run on Lo speed for 15 seconds, until the mixture begins to thicken.
Continue to blend, using a slow, gentle up-and-down motion, taking care
not to lift the mixing blades above the top surface of the ingredients to
avoid spatter. Blend until mixture has reached the desired thickness.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Always clean the Cuisinart
®
Quick Prep
®
Hand Blender thoroughly after
each use. Unplug the unit and hold the blade portion of the Quick Prep
®
under hot running water to rinse clean. If food particles are not easily
rinsed off the blade area, use a small spatula or brush to remove parti-
cles. Do not use your fingers as the blade is sharp. NEVER submerge or
allow water to run onto the motor base of the appliance. Wipe the motor
base clean with a damp cloth and dry before storing. Wash the mixing
container in hot, soapy water and dry before storing, or conveniently place
in the dishwasher after each use.
Cleaning Tip: After preparing oily foods (salad dressing, mayonnaise,
etc.), fill the container with hot soapy water. Unplug the Quick Prep
®
Hand
Blender and place it in the container in the sinkto soak. Rinse the blade
with hot water.
