Special Diets
If anyone in your family is on a restr icted diet, you already
know how difficult it is to obtain canned, frozen or other
prepared foods that are salt-free, low-fiber — or whatever the
special diet requires. Your food processor will enable you to fill
the diet requirements.
MAKING BABY FOOD
The food processor ends concer n about
additives or preser vatives in your baby’s
diet. When you prepare the food
yourself, you know exactly what’s in it.
Process enough for several meals at
one time and freeze in serving-size
por tions. You can process as little as
2 ounces (55 g) at a time–arealtime-
saver that allows you to serve the baby
the same food you’re prepar ing for the
rest of the family.
Vegetables
Simmer or steam fresh vegetables in a
little water, drain them well and purée
them with the metal blade.
Fruit
Poach it in water and purée it with the
metal blade.
Meat, Poultr y and Fish
Cook it first, then chop finely with the
metal blade. Add a little broth or milk to
soften, and purée as fine as desired.
ADAPTING RECIPES FOR THE
FOOD PROCESSOR
You can use your food processor to
make almost all your food preparation tasks easier. To wor k
most efficiently, organize all the steps involved in planning a
recipe or a meal. Then decide on the best order for processing
materials, using the infor mation below as a guide.
Process dr y ingredients being used as a gar nish, like parsley
and nuts, first. They should be chopped when the bowl and the
blade are completely dr y. Usually you will just have to wipe out
the bowl and proceed to the next processing task without
washing it.
