Starfrit Rolling Chopper

USAGE

Always wash before first use. Please refer to the cleaning section in this booklet.

1. Snap the non-slip base under the container and turn it both ways to make sure it’s properly attached to the mechanism.
2. Open the Rolling Chopper by turning the cover clockwise and aligning the slot on the lid with the notch on the container (see instructions on the cover).
3. Place blades or whisk on the central mount before adding ingredients. The scraper should be used with the blades only.
4. Add ingredients:
   Blades: Place food between the 3 blades. Make sure not to overload the container.
   Whisk: Remove the scraper from the container’s lid and pour the liquid ingredients or solid ingredients (finely chopped) inside the container.
5. Close the Rolling Chopper by aligning the slot on the container’s cover with the notch on the container (see locking area). Turn the cover counterclockwise until the notch is completely at the end of the slot.
6. Place a cap on the funnel. It can be removed for the addition of liquid ingredients (without removing the cover) and put back to complete the task.
7. Place the palm of your hand on the cover with the funnel between your thumb and index. Try to also hold the container with the tips of your fingers for more stability.
8. . Turn the chopper’s base and exert pressure.
   Freehand Technique:
   Hold the chopper with the funnel pointing upward and repeatedly turn clockwise and counterclockwise with your other hand. This technique provides more strength to the operation.

Countertop Technique:
Place the chopper on the counter and hold the chopper at a   45° angle. Make back-and-forth movements with one or two hands until the desired cut and texture are obtained. This technique provides speed for the rotation of the blades and whisk.

ADVICE
If you have smaller hands and cannot hold the container while your hand is on the cover, it is recommended to use both hands (one on the cover and the base) to operate the Rolling Chopper on the counter.

IMPORTANT
The countertop and the base of the chopper must be clean and dry. The Rolling Chopper will otherwise slip and the blades will not turn.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• It is recommended to start with the freehand technique as it provides more strength at the beginning of the process when there is more resistance. You can finish the operation (chopping or mixing) by using the countertop rolling technique. This provides faster rotations.
• Use the whisk with liquid ingredients with finely chopped ingredients only.
• Do not use the blades to whip liquid ingredients.

CLEANING

• All parts are detachable for easy cleaning.
• All the pieces are dishwasher safe (top rack) except the non-slip base. To remove the base, place fingers on the container (where the container is dented) and the base and pull sharply.
• After washing, if the rolling mechanism works with less efficiency, food particles, and residue or soap may be lodged into the mechanism. Remove the non-slip base and rinse the mechanism with hot water from the tap. Replace the base and make back-and-forth motions to make sure the base is firmly in place.
• The blades allow to cut, mince, and purée. Great for vegetables (onions, carrots, cabbage, etc.) fruits (tomatoes, melons, apples, etc.), herbs, nuts, and many more.
• The whisk allows you to mix, beat, and whip food. Great for dips, sauces, whipped cream, homemade butter, and even for whisking egg whites.
