Cuisinart Food Processer – I bought on on impulse – what do I need it for?

by admin March 4th, 2009. Filed under: cuisinart blender.

Its an 11 cup with blender.

Can I now get rid of other small gadgets like my handi -chopper, salad shooter, etc?

I want to start preparing healthier foods and need ideas for this thing…….. what do you do with yours?

A food processor is a kitchen appliance used to facilitate various repetitive tasks in the process of preparation of food. Today, the term almost always refers to an electric-motor-driven appliance, although there are some manual devices also referred to as "food processors".

Food processors are similar to blenders in many ways. The primary difference is that food processors use swappable blades and disks (attachments) instead of a fixed blade. Also, their bowls are wider and shorter, a more appropriate shape for the solid or semi-solid foods usually worked in a food processor. Usually little or no liquid is required in the operation of the food processor unlike a blender, which requires some amount of liquid to move the particles around its blade.

Its functions normally consist of:

Slicing/chopping vegetables
Grinding items such as nuts, seeds (eg spices), meat, or dried fruit
Shredding or grating cheese or vegetables
Pureeing
Mixing and kneading doughs

    We've had one on a shelf in the original box for ten years. I cna't think of use for it that would change the way I prepare food. I don't need an anchor, cause I sold my boat.
    I hope you get use and enjoyment from yours.

    Salad dressings
    Sauces such as pestos
    Salsa
    Smoothies
    Mixed Drinks
    Milkshakes
    Cookie Doughs and Cake Batters
    Chopping veggies
    Chopping ice
    Making chicken/egg/ham salad

    You can use it for almost anything, get creative!
