Open the pot.
In fact, it means washing the pot. In fact, there is no mention of opening the pot for stainless steel. It can be used as long as it is washed. It can be washed with tap water, hot water, white vinegar, or dishwashing liquid. You can also fill it with water, set it to 15 minutes/100 degrees/lowest speed, boil a pot of water and then pour it out and let it dry before you start using it.
Note: Except that the main unit cannot be washed, the main pot can be fully washed with water and can be washed in the dishwasher. However, after washing and placing it on the main unit, be sure to ensure that there is no water in the five metal contacts below. Dry! Remember, remember!
Basically use three elements.
The three circles on the LCD screen represent time, temperature, and speed. Click on any circle to enlarge it, and you can twist the right knob left and right to adjust the value. adjustment. For example, the length of time, the temperature, the speed, etc.
Note: No matter what you do, you don’t need to set the temperature, but the time and speed must be set, otherwise the machine cannot be started. The opening speed is equivalent to starting the machine, just turn the button to the right. Even at the lowest speed, you have to choose one.
Temperature/speed tips.
Xiaomei’s speed: The lowest speed is a small spoon, which is generally used for cooking and making soup. This speed is used a lot. Don’t forget what we just said above that the speed of Xiaomei must be turned on. That's this one.
Look at the picture below to see what other temperature and speeds do. In fact, it’s on page 29 of the original recipe, so please read it carefully!
What is reversal? Why the inversion? Xiaomei's knife head is different from others in that it can not only rotate forward but also reversely. Low-speed reversal is less likely to damage ingredients, so reversal is basically used for cooking. If the reversal speed is faster, the function is equivalent to turning the spoon and turning the pot. For example, the last step of the sweet and sour pork ribs, 4 seconds / reversal speed 2, can completely coat the ribs with the soup.
Cleaning function.
Washing meat:
Three steps: the ingredients must be placed in the simmering pot, the amount of water should not cover the ingredients and does not exceed the highest water level, time 7 Minutes/temperature 50 degrees/speed 5. That’s right, it’s at this speed that you can achieve all-round flushing. The time cannot be too short, otherwise the temperature will not be reached. After washing it once, you will be impressed by how clean Xiaomei’s washed meat is. From then on, pork, chicken, beef, mutton, crab and crayfish were washed non-stop.
Wash fruits and vegetables, wash dried fruits (red dates and raisins):
Three steps: the ingredients must be placed in the simmering pot, the amount of water should not cover the ingredients and does not exceed the highest water level, set the time 5 min/speed 5. You can also add some salt and shell powder to wash together as appropriate. This method can be used for most fruits, and some tender ones such as strawberries can take 3-4 minutes. Normally there is no need to set the temperature when washing dried fruits, but in winter you can try 5 minutes/37 degrees/speed 5. The fruits will not be cold in the mouth. Strawberries, bayberry, grapes and broccoli that are difficult to wash will all be rinsed clean.
Stir-frying function.
General cooking process:
1. Chop onion, ginger, garlic and spices in 4 seconds and speed 5.
2. Add oil and sauté until fragrant, 3 minutes/temperature V/reverse speed small spoon;
3. Add ingredients and seasonings, the time depends on the ingredients, temperature V, reverse, Speed ????small spoon;
The time for ingredients is generally 3-4 minutes for green leafy vegetables, 4-5 minutes for cauliflower, about 10 minutes for roots, and about 20 minutes for meat (depending on the specifics) Recipe) Here is just a rough description of the cooking methods and processes! In fact, it’s not much different from cooking in a regular pot! You'll get used to it after using it a few times.
If a novice doesn't know how to do it, you can do it twice by following the chip first, and then you can operate it yourself after you become familiar with it.
Steamer function.
The steamer set is equipped with two deep and shallow steaming plates, and is reasonably designed to be used with different dishes. Deep ones can be used for bowls and plates. When using a plate with a wide bottom, be careful not to block all the steam holes in the middle. You can use a steaming rack and chopsticks to leave space for steam to circulate. The shallow steaming tray above can be used to place vegetables directly on a plate, or you can use baking paper and aluminum foil to achieve three or four dishes in one pot.
If something is to be steamed, it is recommended that the pot must be soup or a stew with a lot of water, such as braised in soy sauce. Ensure that there is no less than 500g of hot liquid. The temperature must be Varoma and the lowest speed is recommended. Or 0.5, so that there is enough steam to steam things. Using this function can fully save time and energy, and you can cook three or four dishes in one pot. Don’t worry about different times, it can be split and different dishes can be steamed at the same time. The unique food-grade resin material of the steamer is not hot when it is served at any time. When the time comes to steam, you can take down which dish first.
Turbo function.
The wheat ear graphic buttons include the turbo button and the kneading button.
The turbo button is the turbo mode. When used with the cutter head, it can output more power under the same voltage.
1: Making lemon juice can extract lemon essential oil at high speed. Lemon juice is ready in 6 seconds.
2: Beat granular things, such as diced meat or vegetables, to avoid beating too finely.
3: Beat things that are easy to produce oil (to prevent them from producing oil), such as grinding sesame powder. If the speed is fast, you can grind it into powder in the shortest time to achieve the effect of no oil.
Kneading function.
Kneading mode operation:
Put the ingredients (flour/water/sugar...), it is recommended to start with speed 2 for 20 seconds , after initially kneading the flour and water into crumbs, click the kneading button, set the time (for example, 3 minutes), then click on the wheat ear pattern circle to enlarge it, and then turn the knob lightly to start.
Note:
1. Once the kneading function is started, there is no speed value to select. Because this is the speed chosen by the machine. Remember to turn the button clockwise, not click the button to activate. It's easy for newbies to make mistakes.
2. Xiaomei uses a blade type to knead the dough, and the dough will be scattered and interrupted. So after kneading the dough, take it out. Please be sure to manually knead the dough and make it round before proceeding with the next step of shaping. Any dough needs to be treated this way.
Reverse.
Reverse key:
The difference between Xiaomei's cutter head and other machines is that not only can the cutter head rotate forward, but it can also rotate reversely. .
1. Any crushing and puree/sauce functions must be positive.
2. The function of ordinary fruit juice, milkshake and ice cream is definitely authentic. But for some special fruits, there is no need to remove the core. You can turn on the reversal function and separate the cored fruits into core juice, such as pomegranate juice, lychee juice, bayberry juice... Finally, just filter out the core.
3. When cooking, the reverse speed is basically the lowest speed! To prevent the food from turning too soft and shapeless, this reverse button can also be used to coat the food with juice. Adjust the speed to 2-2.5 and set the time to 2-4 seconds before starting the pot, and the braised pork ribs will be coated with juice.
4. The reversing mixing speed is also used to stir the meat filling, to add strength to the minced meat without breaking it too much, or to reverse the cooked meat to achieve the hand-shredded effect.
Butterfly wand.
1. Used for beating whole eggs, egg whites and fresh cream. Please make sure that the main pot is free of water and oil when adding more fat. Due to different sizes or different brands of whipping cream, the whipping time cannot be unified. Please refer to the time and speed in the book and check the status.
2. Equipped with a butterfly stick, it can be used to cook tender dishes such as fish, tofu, and barbecue bran. The gentle pushing function will neither burn the fish or tofu, nor burn it to pieces. Sticky bottom.
How to wash the pot.
Quick hand washing method for lazy people: After cooking, add water to the pot, rinse it, pour out the residue, it is best to brush it with a pot washing brush, and then Add half a pot of water again (hot water is especially good), no need to add detergent, just let the water level reach the cutter head. Wash the pot at speed 10 for 10 seconds (add more time the more oily and dirty it is). Xiaomei's high-speed motor can emulsify oil in an instant.
Pour out the water, rinse it again, pour out the water again, and then you can go straight to the next dish. There is no need to wipe the inside of the pot until it is very dry before cooking (but the needles below cannot be wet), because the oil temperature is low, even if the oil is heated, it will not splash on your hands.
Note: Do not set the temperature when washing the pot, just use hot water. First, the machine's safety settings do not allow cooking at a speed higher than 6. Second, 10 seconds is really not enough time to heat up.
General manual cleaning: add some baking soda or dishwashing liquid as appropriate, wash it under the tap with a dishwashing sponge, and let it dry before using it next time.
How to disassemble the cutter head.
Disassembly and assembly of the cutter head:
The Xiaomei cutter head is easily removable, with no sanitary dead corners and no waste of materials.
Note: When installing, the blade and pot base must be tightly connected to the main pot.
Other gadgets.
Applications of other gadgets:
1. The small lid on the mixing bowl is also a measuring cup when liquid needs to be added. Very convenient, can be poured directly, and can be measured.
2. The design of the hole size of the main pot is also very meaningful. For anything larger than the hole, it is recommended to change the knife and put it in for cooking or whipping to avoid the knife tip getting stuck. Especially for large pieces of yellow rock sugar, please do not put it in directly. It is recommended to use single crystal rock sugar.
3. The lid of the main pot is concave, and even if the cooked food overflows, it will flow back into the pot by itself.
4. The included spatula can not only be used as a spatula, but also can be used as a scraper to divide the dough. The special design will not pollute the table no matter how you place it. The hook on the front can even extract the basket.
5. The simmering pot can be used for cooking, filtering, and washing fruits, vegetables and meat. When cooking, you can also place it directly on the lid to prevent splashing.
About safety.
1. Unique automatic lock. If the lid of the main pot is not placed in place, the machine will issue a prompt and refuse to work.
2. The safety setting of the machine does not allow the use of high speeds exceeding 6 when cooking. Avoid getting burnt by hot objects splashing out at high speed.
