Designed to make creating fresh homemade food quicker and easier, the food processor’s sheer versatility makes it the unsung hero of most kitchens. In fact, there’s very few food prep tasks it can’t help you with, saving you valuable time and effort so that you can get on with being creative. But if you’re relatively new to using one of these multi-tasking kitchen gadgets it’s easy to be a bit overwhelmed by how and when to use all the various discs and attachments. So here’s the lowdown on getting the most from your food processor. Once you know how much it can do, we guarantee you’ll never look back.
Think of a food processor as an extra pair of hands in the kitchen. A good model can chop, slice, grate, grind, whisk, blend, purée and knead-making light work of some of the more time and labour intensive kitchen prep work. They come in varying capacities and with multiple different tools and attachments which are each designed to tackle a specific task in seconds. Some of our models like the MultiPro Excel or MultiPro Compact+ even have built in digital scales so you can weigh your ingredients directly into the bowl.
A good food processor is a cook’s best friend in the kitchen-whizzing through time-consuming food prep tasks in minutes. Here’s just some of the ways you can use a food processor to make creating tasty homemade food quicker and easier:
All our food processors are engineered to make food preparation simple and safe, but as with any electrical appliance with moving parts, there are a few common sense safety precautions to bear in mind when using them:Keep hands and utensils away from the blades:Always turn the power off at the mains before putting your hands or any utensils near the blades. Only add ingredients to the bowl via the feed tube when the machine is in use, and never leave children unattended near sharp parts or a machine that is plugged in.Keep processor away from liquids when it is turned onTake care when pouring liquids in to or out of the food processor, ensuring the power cord and socket stay dry.Clean and dry thoroughly after use Once you’ve finished using your processor turn it off and unplug. Remove the bowl from the power unit before carefully removing any blades or cutting discs. Wash with warm soapy water-most attachments are dishwasher safe but always check individual product instructions. Wipe the power unit with a damp cloth to remove any food residue and dry-never submerge in water. Always turn the appliance off at the mains and unplug when not in use.Accessories and attachmentsOnly use official Kenwood accessories and attachments with your food processor.
