Pro Classic Cuisinart Food processor 7 Cup DLS-10S
|
|
|
I don't consider a basic food processor to be totally essential but if you like to cook
or have a big family to prepare for, definitely consider one because they can
save so much time in chopping and mixing.
Often, the more expensive food processors will be the most powerful and my
advice is to select a machine with a robust motor of

around 950 watts. Look for several power options as well as a 'pulse' switch to
quickly turn the machine on and off for crushing ice or mixing tough loads like
pastries and heavy dough.
The Cuisinart Pro Classic Food Processor makes all your favorites,
from stir fries and main course salads, to peanut butter and home made bread.

Cuisinart food processors are sold according to their dry ingredient capacity and this
can vary from 1 cup Cuisinart mini food processor to around 20 cups.
A capacity of less than 5 cups is useful for
chopping small things, like say an onion or nuts, but is just too small for most jobs.
I would suggest a larger size of at least 9 16 cups, and some of these larger models
come with a 4 cup mini bowl which fits inside the main bowl for those smaller jobs.
If you need to regularly prepare a lot of food, then don't hesitate in buying a
professional size of around 20 cups.
A clear polycarbonate bowl will be the most stain resistant and durable and the
lid should have the widest feed tube available. Take my word for it, you don't
want to have to pre cut every vegetable just to ft it down the tube it takes far too much time.
I like to use the stainless steel blades for general chopping, the
cutting discs for slicing and shredding, and the plastic hook for mixing pastry dough.
Some processors even have blender and juicer attachments which make the whole
machine a lot more versatile and space efficient.
Some also come with a whipping attachment for cake mixes, eggs and cream, but for
those I still prefer to use my hand held electric or stand mixers as they incorporate
more air and seem to do a better job.
