If you do not start with small, uniform pieces, you will not get an even cut.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\">\u003Cstrong>Quantity\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>Do not overload the work bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results and overloads the motor. As a general rule, remember that most foods should reach no more than 2 ⁄3 of the way up the bowl. Use the quantities listed in the tables and recipe section as a guide.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\">\u003Cstrong>Note:\u003C\u002Fstrong> Due to the powerful motor provided with this unit, it is recommended that one hand be used to hold the Cuisinart Elite Collection® Chopper\u002FChopper during operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\">\u003Cstrong>Selecting the Proper Operating Control\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cul>\u003Cli>Use the Chop function for chopping, pureeing and blending. It is the right choice, for example, for chopping soft, fragile foods such as herbs, celery, onions, garlic and most cheeses. It is also the right choice for pureeing cooked vegetables, making mayonnaise, and mixing salad dressings.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>The pulse action is best when you are using the Chop function. Two or three pulses are usually enough. Make sure to check the food frequently to avoid over-processing. If you over-process, you are likely to get a watery paste instead of a fine chop. Use the Grind function to grind spices and chop hard foods like peppercorns, seeds, chocolate, and nuts.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Continuous detent action is best when using the Grind feature. You may need to operate the Cuisinart Elite Collection Chopper\u002FChopper for several seconds with some foods to achieve desired results, or up to 20 seconds for some seeds.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>When operating the unit for longer than 10 seconds, use a pulse action every 10 seconds or so to allow the food to fall to the bottom of the work bowl. This provides more consistent results.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Never operate the Cuisinart Elite Collection Chopper\u002FChopper continuously for more than 1 minute at a time.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003C\u002Ful>\u003Cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\">\u003Cstrong>Note:\u003C\u002Fstrong> The bowl and lid may become scratched when used to grind grains and spices. This does not affect the performance of the Cuisinart Elite Collection Chopper\u002FChopper.\u003Cbr>However, you may wish to reserve the original bowl for grinding and purchase an additional bowl and lid set for other uses. \u003Cbr>\u003Cstrong>Adding Liquid\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>You can add liquids such as water, oil, or flavoring while the machine is running. For example, you might want to add oil when making mayonnaise or salad dressing, or you might add vanilla or alcohol when making frozen yogurt. Pour the liquid through one of the two openings in the lid.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\">\u003Cstrong>IMPORTANT\u003C\u002Fstrong>: Add liquid through only one opening at a time. The other opening must be left free to allow air to escape. If both openings are blocked, liquid cannot flow smoothly into the bowl.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp style=\"margin-left:0px;\">Removing Food from the Sides of the Bowl Occasionally, food will stick to the sides of the bowl while processing. Stop the machine to remove the food. AFTER THE BLADE STOPS MOVING, remove the lid and use the spatula to scrape the food from the sides of the bowl toward the center.
