Cuisinart Food Processor Manual

Question about my food processer!?

I just got a cuisinart DLC-10plus food processor from a friend a she didn’t have the instruction manual that it came with and I don’t know how to remove the bowl from the base!!! If anyone has one and knows please tell me. Thanks.

Cuisinart (a division of Conair) has many instruction manuals on their website. If not, check if there’s a similar model and check that one. If that still doesn’t work, look at a company like Hamilton Beach or Kitchenaid and see if they have a similar model, then check their sites. Most of them are the same food processor, private labeled out.

I remember my old one, and I had a hell of a time figuring it out. Check at the base of the bowl for a switch or a clip.

Good luck!

Are you a Gourmet?

What exactly does it mean to be a gourmet? Does watching public television cooking shows on Saturday morning while folding the laundry count? How about being fascinated with Julia Child and having all of her cookbooks on your Amazon wish list? Knowing what zest, garam marsala and charcuterie mean, does this qualify you as being a gourmet? Where did the term come from and what exactly does it mean?

A gourmet is someone with a discriminating palate who is savvy when it comes to fine food and drink. The word comes from the French word groumet which defines a person in charge of the wines at a meal. While this definition is a start, most people think they have a discriminating palate, but discriminating between a Big Mac and a Whopper probably doesn’t count. What exactly are gourmets discriminating about? Who decides what is and isn’t gourmet? From my research, I have come up with three things that qualify a person to call themselves a gourmet. While not an exhaustive list, qualifying in each of these three categories is a good indication that you can call yourself a gourmet.

If you still don’t own a blender because you are saving up for a Waring or refuse to brown your bagels in anything other than a Dualit toaster, you are good in the first category of gourmet, knowing your equipment. Note that I don’t say you need to own this equipment to be a gourmet, just know what it is and have a sincere desire to own it all someday, like when you win the lottery and can actually afford it. A few of the necessities in a gourmet kitchen include a Cuisinart food processor, Emilie Henry bakers, All-Clad pots and pans, Viking range, SubZero built in refrigerator, Kitchenaid mixer, Espressione espresso machine, Wusthof knives, and a Polder thermometer and timer. You will also need to include fine china, silver cutlery and beautiful table linens. Doing some calculations from the Williams Sonoma site (which should be one of your favorite places to shop), a fully equipped gourmet kitchen including service for 8 would come to over $25,000.00 This figure doesn’t even start to cover the many food items you should have.

That brings us to our next category, food. Do you know terms such as foie gras, sevruga, gravlax, fleur de sel, truffles (not the chocolate kind) and herbes de provence? Have you ever eaten any of them? If you can answer yes to most of these, you are a definite gourmet. A good gourmet kitchen will be stocked with the finest wines, caviars, cheeses, produce, meats, breads and pastries. It will also have multitudes of herbs and spices as well as liqueurs and natural extracts. Hundreds of volumes of cookbooks are also a necessity and must include authors such as Jacques Pepin, Simone Beck, James Beard and of course, Julia.

The last area that defines a gourmet is drive. This means wanting to constantly learn more about fine foods and wines. Taking vacations to France and Italy are a start as well as visiting wineries, fish markets and farmers markets everywhere you go. Food should be an obsession, not just a past time. Magazines such as Saveur, Cuisine, Cook’s Illustrated, Fine Cooking, Gourmet and Bon Appetit should dot the landscape of your home. You should also have a strong desire to take cooking classes and cooking vacations and your ultimate dream would be to one day attend “Le Cordon Bleu” cooking school in Paris. Yes, knowing French is a strong plus.

If you can say you qualify in even two of these categories, I would say you are a budding gourmet. Three would mean you are definitely a gourmet. Now that you have qualified yourself as such, don’t hesitate to share it with others. Remember, however, that they may want you to actually cook something for them since they assume all gourmets can cook. This, however, was not one of the qualifying factors, so don’t feel pressured if actually using your gourmet items scares you. Instead invite them to a gourmet restaurant and correct their pronunciations of items on the menu. Knowing the equipment, understanding the names and tastes of the foods and having the desire to cook someday is all you need to be a gourmet. Besides, who has time to cook when you are so busy learning to be a gourmet?

Making Home Meat Processing Simple With The Commercial Meat Grinder

Grinding your own meat can be a pleasant and rewarding experience, especially when you realize the cost savings factor by not having it done professionally.  One way that you can process your own meat in large quantities is with a commercial meat grinder.  There are some wonderful benefits to using one and if you do purchase one, you’ll soon realize the potential that they have for making your home processing needs much simpler.

One of the more popular brands that you’ll find on the market today is Kitchenaid, which has created some of the best home kitchen appliances around, including the meat grinder.  One of the best add-ons, in my opinion, that you can by for your Kitchenaid food processor is the meat grinder attachment, which I absolutely love and use all the time.

A nice benefit of the meat grinder is that when you purchase the unit, there is essentially no setup time so you can get right to work as soon as you get it home, which is great if you have got a lot to do in a short amount of time.  Basically all you have to do is unpack everything, hook up any attachments that you may want to use, plug it in, and away you go.

Meat grinders of today are far more advanced  than they used to be and offer more benefits than ever before.  You can basically set your grinder on autopilot and let it do most of the work.  All you really need to do is get it started and then be there to take away the finished product.  They are also quite powerful and with close to 600 watts of power or more, there is no job too big or too small for the commercial meat grinder.

Home appliances of today are being built more efficiently and with more durable components so you know that you are going to get a product that will last a long time and will provide you with hours and hours of valuable use.  Most grinders are able to stand up to daily wear and tear with ease because of their stainless steel construction and high quality hardware.
If you want to make the most of your home processing activities, then you would be a huge advantage if you purchased a commercial meat grinder for yourself.  The time and cost savings benefits alone are enough to make you realize the benefits of this great product.

Does the kitchenaid food processor knead dough properly?

Hey all,
I m planning to buy the kitchenaid 12cup food processor.
I want to know if it kneads dough for pizza and bread well…. coz that wld be my primary requirement.
Any1 having used the gadget are welcome to share experiences.
Thanq.

well the KFP750OB comes with what they call a dough blade, and on their site it says you can knead yeast dough with it. I couldn’t find a jpg of this dough blade tho, I would hope it looks similar to the dough hook that they have with their stand mixer.
Why aren’t you happy with their stand mixer? it’s what I have.
maybe it’s your dough recipe.
when i worked in restaurants we had GIGANTIC floor mixers to mix pizza dough. I would always let the dough rise up twice and then rest for a few hours before using. I do the same at home with my stand mixer. it’s all i really make with mine, and it’s strong enough to use for the massive amts i make at times.
in the restaurant(s) i’d let the dough mixer go for about 11-19 min. at home with my stand mixer I do it for 9.
I only use a plastic bowl to have my dough rise. In the restaurant(s) I would use very clean bus pans reserved only for the dough. I would either line the bus pan with a bit of olive oil or even a clean garbage bag, and then top with a garbage bag while it rose. at home I do the same, but of course with a smaller garbage bag, plastic of course. maybe it’s the plastic container, but it seems to work for me. punching it down twice is written in stone for me, as well as keeping it in the kitchen with the heat and away from drafts and windows.
the only time i use a hand mixer is when i need to whip up egg whites and simple things like mashed potatoes.
try putting some ground fennel in your pizza dough.
my pizza dough recipe has whole milk, butter, salt, sugar, eggs and of course yeast. it yields itself towards making thin, thick, pan dough for pizza as well as making buns, french bread, bread sticks and of course elephant ears (scraps fried and topped with cinnamon sugar)
i’d be interested in learning how that dough blade works tho. email me and let me know
