Eight Everyday Kitchen Functions In One Appliance
-------------------------------------------------
The Genie is essentially a traditional or jug blender, a more
solid and secure option than hand blenders which are preferred
for their mobility and lightweight designs. These traditional
blenders perform a number of helpful kitchen functions including
chopping, blending, mixing, whipping and pureeing--all of which
the genie does. And more.
The Genie boasts eight core food preparation functions, adding
grinding, grating and juicing to the list--so whatever you're
looking to conjure up to feast on--the Genie can help. Whether
you want to puree some scrumptious sauces or baby food; squeeze
some fresh fruit juice; chop some vegetables such as onions,
carrots and garlic (without getting your hands mucky or smelly);
whip up some cream, soft cheese or butter; effortlessly mix
dough, chunky dips like salsa or sauces like pesto; grind coffee,
nuts or rock salt; blend a mouth-watering milkshake, smoothie or
soup or grate cheese, chocolate and breadcrumbs. There's plenty
more fun food and drink ideas, such as cocktails, dressings,
marinades--the options go on and on.
Compact Unit With Choice of Two Blades
--------------------------------------
The extensive 15 piece set centres around the high-torque power
base unit. This is a stylish silver/ metallic shade which neatly
complements contemporary and modern-looking kitchens and is made
from plastic so isn't too heavy or difficult to manoeuvre. It's
also small and compact and so doesn't hog all the room on your
kitchen worktop--ideal for limited spaces--and inside this base
is a 230 watt (W) motor which powers the blades.
There are two different blades included in the Genie set--a flat
blade and a cross blade. Both blades are made from stainless
steel which is less corrosive and more resistant to rusting than
other materials and boasts antibacterial properties that keep it
hygienic. The flat blade, as its name suggests, lies flat and is
for grinding and chopping, while the cross has four points of
which two are flat and two are raised helping it perform all
other uses.
Prepare and Serve In Style
--------------------------
Once the desired blade has been chosen, the last step is to
select what piece of kit goes on the top and here the Genie
really has fun with a wide range to choose from. The largest of
the options is the traditional blending jug. This measures one
litre (l) and is plastic for easier lifting and pouring. You can
also add the juice extractor to the jug to help prepare fresh
fruit juices such as orange, grapefruit and carrot without
getting fruit pulp all over your kitchen.
Cups In All Shapes and Sizes
----------------------------
Blend without the jug thanks to the included cups. There are two
of varying size--one which is fairly large and dome-shaped, the
other much smaller to better accommodate smaller as. Both
offer alternative sizes to the roomier jug and so help you work
to your requirements. Or add some colour to your next party with
the set of four party cups with removable brightly coloured rings
around the rim. Available in yellow, red, blue and green--choose
your favourite to use for both preparing and serving your drinks
in style.
Both the jugs and the range of cups neatly fit onto the base so
you can prepare and serve straightaway minimising mess as it cuts
down on washing up and saves time when playing host. And to
control how long the process lasts, simply depress the Go button
for your desired length of time. This gives you complete control
so there's no waiting around for a cycle to finish.
If you want to keep your food/ drink fresh, the kit includes two
re-sealable lids which preserve the freshness or if you're
looking to serve your drinks with flair, there are two shaker/
steamer tops. Simply place this on top of your drink and sprinkle
chocolate flakes (or whatever tasty topping takes your fancy)
onto it. The topping will fall through the holes and once removed
will reveal an attractive pattern on the top of your drink.
Alternatively these lid holes act as a release mechanism for the
steam of hot drinks allowing the steam to escape safely even when
the lid is on for people on the go.
The kit is completed by the recipe book which is packed with fun
suggestions to get busy in the kitchen.

Choosing the Correct Blade
--------------------------
The cross blade is used for:
* Chopping - onion, garlic, carrots, etc
* Blending - smoothies or milkshakes
* Mixing - batters, dough
* Grating - chocolate, hard or soft cheese
* Pureeing - soups, sauce or baby food
* Grinding Meats - Ideal for making patés
The flat blade is used for:
* Grinding and chopping harder, single ingredients such as coffee
beans, nuts, cinnamon sticks, dried s and dried fruit
* Whipping foods such as home-made whipped cream, cream cheese
and butter
kets
The blades have a sealing ket fitted inside the cap as shown.
Under normal circumstances, they should not need to be removed.
However, if you do have to remove them, ensure that they are
fully fitted into the slot in the blade cap without being twisted
or kinked. Failure to do so can cause the ket to become
damaged.
