Do I need to prep my ingredients before processing?
For best results, make sure your ingredients are uniform in size before adding them to the food processor bowl. Follow the guidelines below for best results:
Trim ingredients so they are in 10-12cm pieces or slightly over the height of the feed chute. DO NOT cut ingredients smaller than the size of the feed chute.
Cut both ends off ingredients to create flat surfaces. Trim tapered ingredients like carrots to make them more symmetrical.
Larger ingredients, such as potatoes, may need to be cut in half lengthwise.
