Proctor Silex Food Chopper

Unlike models that require you to twist and lock the bowl into a base, this chopper uses a simple stack-and-press mechanism. You just place the bowl on the base and press down to start processing, which eliminates the frustration of aligning locking tabs.

This size is ideal for small-batch tasks like chopping herbs, onions, garlic, or making a quick batch of salsa or hummus. If you are preparing large quantities of ingredients for a full family meal, you may need to process in multiple batches.

Yes, the bowl is specifically designed with a seal to prevent leaks, making it suitable for pureeing and emulsifying liquids. The stainless steel blades are capable of handling everything from thick pastes to thinner dressings.

Cleanup is straightforward because the bowl, lid, and stainless steel blade are all dishwasher-safe. Additionally, all removable parts are BPA-free, ensuring they are safe for food contact.

The unit measures 9.4 inches deep, 7.5 inches wide, and 6 inches high. It also features a convenient built-in cord reel, which helps keep your workspace tidy and makes it easier to store in a cabinet when not in use.

The two pulse speeds provide you with better control over the texture of your food. You can use the lower speed for a coarse chop and the higher speed for finer pureeing, preventing you from accidentally over-processing your ingredients.
