Food Processor in Practice: 26 Quick Recipes with the Right Blade

English

Remember that slicing disc that's been sitting in the box since you bought your food processor? It has work to do. For every recipe, this book tells you which blade or disc to use, how many pulses to give it, and when to turn the machine off.

It has 26 everyday recipes in 32 pages, organized into four chapters: sauces, spreads, and pâtés; doughs and savory bites; salads, vegetables, and soups; and sweets and desserts. You'll find basil pesto with nuts, hummus, pizza dough, Brazilian cheese bread, and baked kibbeh. There are also potatoes au gratin, cream of pumpkin soup, carrot cake, no-bake cheesecake, and the family flan.

Before you turn on the machine, open the blade guide at the start of the book. It explains what each attachment is for, so you can stop guessing and use everything you already have at home.

Every recipe gives exact measurements, prep times, and a chef's tip at the bottom of the page. In practice, you slice the potatoes to the same thickness, so the gratin bakes evenly. The pizza dough is kneaded in about a minute. And the mayonnaise has its consistency explained step by step, so it firms up on the very first try.

The machine does the chopping while you do something else, and there are fewer dishes in the sink at the end.

Pick a recipe today, follow the pulses given, and get dinner on the table sooner.

What you get:

• Blade guide right at the start: learn what each disc is for and take the attachments you've never used out of the box

• 26 recipes that tell you the blade, the number of pulses, and when to stop, so you get the texture right without guessing

• Pizza dough kneaded in the machine in about a minute, so Friday's pizza comes out of the oven much sooner

• Exact measurements and prep times on every page, so you can plan dinner before you open the fridge
