ADDITIONAL USES

13
ADDITIONAL USES
• Use for drinks or cocktail making, emulsions such as mayonnaise, dressings, marinades
and foods that require mixing until just combined, such as batters, also for pureeing
soups and aerating liquids.
• Use to blend fruits, ice cream and yoghurts into thick smoothies, whips and
milkshakes.
• Use the Pulse function for foods that only require short bursts of power such as
chopping nuts and crushing ice.
• Use the Pulse function with short bursts of power, when blending drinks containing ice
cubes or frozen fruit.
• Ensure all foods are cut into cubes (approx. 1 inch square) where appropriate to
achieve an even result.
• Do not put more than 2 cups of warm ingredients into the Omega Blender before
blending commences. After the blending process has begun and the blades are
turning you may slowly add another 1½ cups of ingredients through the opening in
the lid if desired.
• Thick mixtures puree more efciently if the Omega Blender is ¼ to ½ full.
• When using several ingredients, place liquid ingredients in the Eastman Tritan™ Container
before solid ingredients, unless specied in the recipe. When blending thick or dry mixtures
it may be necessary to stop your Omega blender and scrape down the sides of the
container with a plastic or rubber spatula, once or twice during blending. Do not use
metal utensils as they may damage the blades or blender.
