INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of a Cuisinart® Premier Series 9-Cup Food Processor. This product is the ultimate food preparation tool, and it comes from the originator of the American food processor, Cuisinart. The Cuisinart® Premier Series 9-Cup Food Processor has all the elements of quality that Cuisinart is known for, including a powerful motor, the Supreme® Wide Mouth Feed Tube, and the longest warranty in the industry.
THE MACHINE INCLUDES: 2. A large pusher that fits into the Cuisinart® Supreme® feed tube opening and moves freely within it. 1. Housing base with a vertically projecting shaft and convenient touchpad control panel Upon contact, the large pusher meets an activating rod in the center of the work bowl handle, permitting the motor to start. 2. 9-cup work bowl ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS 3. Cover with Cuisinart® Supreme Wide Mouth Feed Tube 4. Pusher assembly that slides inside the feed tube 5. Dough blade 6.
4. With the stem facing down, place the assembly over the center hub. It should fit snugly and rest on the bottom of the work bowl. • Place the work bowl over the center stem, with the handle area just to the left of center. Turn counterclockwise to lock in place. 5. Place work bowl cover onto work bowl, with the handle area just to the left of center. Turn counterclockwise to lock onto work bowl. • Insert the metal chopping blade and put ingredient pieces in the work bowl.
To prevent the blade from falling from the work bowl onto your hand when emptying the work bowl, use one of the following methods: Be sure your hands are dry. Grab the blade hub, and remove the metal blade before tilting the bowl, using a spatula to scrape off any food. Then carefully lift the blade out of the work bowl. Or insert your finger through the hole in the bottom of the work bowl, gripping the blade from the bottom, and grip the outside of the work bowl with your thumb.
To chop peel from citrus fruit or to chop sticky fruit like dates or raisins For citrus, remove only the peel with a vegetable peeler, not the white pith, which is bitter tasting. Cut the peel into lengths of 2 inches (5cm) or less and process with ½ cup (125 ml) of granulated sugar until finely chopped. This may take 2 minutes or longer. For sticky fruit like dates, raisins, prunes and candied fruit, first freeze the fruit for about 10 minutes. Add some of the flour called for in the recipe to the fruit.
For a “one egg” batch of basic mayonnaise made with pasteurized liquid eggs, place ¼ cup pasteurized liquid eggs, 2 tablespoons wine vinegar or lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, ½ teaspoon kosher salt and a pinch of ground white pepper in the work bowl. With the machine running, add ½ cup of vegetable oil to the small pusher and allow to slowly drip into the mixture while processing. After all the oil has dripped through, add another ½ cup of vegetable oil to the small pusher and allow to drip through.
Process by pulsing, inspecting after each pulse. Stop pulsing as soon as the dry ingredients have almost disappeared into the batter. Overprocessing will cause quick breads and cakes to be tough. (If your recipe calls for ingredients that are to be coarsely chopped – like raisins or nuts – add them last with the mixed dry ingredients.) To make cake mix Your food processor work bowl is large enough for the preparation of an 18.5-ounce packaged cake mix.
PRACTICING SLICING AND SHREDDING 1. Insert a slicing or shredding disc, put the cover on the work bowl and insert the food in the feed tube. 2. Slide the pusher into place, and apply pressure to the pusher while pressing down the PULSE button. Release the button as soon as the food is sliced or shredded. 3. You can load the feed tube repeatedly without removing work bowl cover. Simply grasp the pusher and lift up. The pusher assembly will come off easily, leaving the cover and feed tube in place.
Cooked meat and poultry The food must be very cold. If possible, use a piece of food just large enough to fit in the feed tube. To make julienne strips of ham, bologna or luncheon meat, stack slices, then roll or fold them double and stand upright in the feed tube, wedging in as many rolls as possible. This technique works better with square or rectangular pieces than with round ones.
TECHNIQUES FOR KNEADING YEAST DOUGH WITH THE DOUGH BLADE The Premier Series 9-Cup Food Processor is designed to mix and knead dough in a fraction of the time it takes to do it by hand. You will get perfect results every time if you follow these directions. NEVER TRY TO PROCESS DOUGH THAT IS TOO STIFF TO KNEAD COMFORTABLY BY HAND. There are two general types of yeast dough. Typical bread dough is made with a flour mix that contains at least 50% white flour.
or splatters, stop adding it but do not turn off the machine. Wait until ingredients in bowl have mixed, then add remaining liquid slowly. Pour liquid onto dough as it passes under feed tube opening. Do not pour liquid directly onto bottom of bowl. Follow the recipe carefully. It is important to add enough liquid to make the dough soft enough to knead. Kneading dough that is too stiff can strain the machine.
If dough doesn’t clean inside of work bowl • Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity of your food processor. Remove half and process in 2 batches. • Dough may be too dry. If it feels crumbly, add water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) at a time, while machine is running, until dough becomes moist and cleans inside of work bowl. Wait 10 seconds between additions of liquid. • Dough may be too wet. While machine is running, add 1 tablespoon (9 gm) of flour.
If blade doesn’t incorporate ingredients Butter or margarine, if not melted, must be cut into tablespoon-size pieces before being added to work bowl. If dough blade rises in work bowl Blade may not have been pushed down as far as possible before processing started. Machine may be overloaded. Remove half of dough and process in 2 batches. If motor stops See comments under ‘Typical Bread Dough’ Problems and Solutions, page 16.
FOR YOUR SAFETY Like all powerful electrical appliances, a Premier Series Food Processor should be handled with care. Follow these guidelines to protect yourself and your family from misuse that could cause injury. Handle and store metal blades and discs carefully. Their cutting edges are very sharp. Always place discs on flat stable surface before connecting detachable stem. Never put blades or discs on the motor shaft until the work bowl is locked in place.

sprinkling of the cheeses, and topped with the chopped green onion. If desired, the bowls may be placed under a broiler or in a hot oven to melt the cheeses; if you do this, be sure to use ovenproof bowls. *Leeks are grown in very sandy soil, and must be well cleaned, or the grit will ruin your soup. Trim the roots from the leeks, and then trim and discard the leaves, about 1 inch above the white. Wash well and dry. The leeks used in this recipe yielded about a 4-inch piece of leek.
