PURÉEING WITH THE QUAD
®
BLADE
The micro-serrated Quad blade purées raw
and cooked food to the consistency required,
including baby food. The blades process very
efficiently, and cut the time needed to purée
many tasks.
Always remember to place the Quad blade into
the processing bowl before adding the food.
Carefully remove the Quad blade after puréeing
food and use a spatula to scrape food adhering
to the blade and bowl.
Baby food
Trim and cut vegetables and meat into
2.5cm cubes. Cook vegetables and meat
before processing. Process no more than
5½ cups at a time using the START button in
intervals until the food is puréed to a smooth
and even consistency. Stock, milk or gravy
can be added through the small feed chute if
the mixture becomes too thick.
Excess baby food can be frozen in ice-cube
trays, and packed in single serve freezer bags
ready for use.
Peanut butter
Process no more than 4 cups of shelled
nuts at a time using the START button until
chopped to the desired consistency.
The volume of nuts reduces after processing,
for example 2 cups of nuts will make around
1 cup of nut butter.
Natural nut butter (without using stabilisers)
will separate on standing, and needs to be
stirred before use.
MIXING WITH THE QUAD
®
BLADE
The Quad blade mixes ingredients for cakes,
batters, and cookie doughs.
Always remember to place the spindle and
Quad blade into the processing bowl before
adding the food.
Butter cake and biscuit dough
Place softened, chopped butter and sugar
into the processing bowl. Process using the
START button until the mixture is lightly
creamed. With the motor running, add eggs
one at a time through the small feed chute,
mixing well after each egg is added. Take lid
off and add liquid and dry ingredients to the
mixture. Process using the PULSE button
until folded evenly. Scrape down sides of bowl
as needed. Do not over-process.
Add choc chips, nuts, dried fruit, etc. after
the main mixture is done. Use the PULSE
button in very short bursts until the additions
are combined. Do not over-process, as these
larger ingredients will break down quickly.
Quick-mix cakes and batters
Place all ingredients in the bowl, starting with
liquids, and being careful not to exceed the
MAX LIQUID level. Process using the PULSE
button until folded evenly. Scrape down sides
of bowl as needed. Do not over-process.
This method can also be used for melt ’n’ mix
cakes, packet cake mixes and crêpe batters.
Pastry dough
Place flour and chilled, cubed butter into the
processing bowl.
Do not process more than 2 cups (300g)
of flour using the START button in intervals
until the butter is absorbed into the flour.
Steadily add liquid through the small feed
chute with the motor still running.
Process until the mixture forms a ball.
