Change slice thickness during processing (only if you have enough food feeding through)
You can adjust slice thickness while the processor is running, but it’s easier when there’s enough product in the feed tube to see/feel the change.
They demonstrate that thickness can be changed mid-run, but note it’s hard to do with only a small amount of food going through.
The short version
- Mid-run thickness changes are easier with a larger batch
What you need
- food processorWith adjustable slicing thickness
What goes wrong
Trying to evaluate thickness changes with only a few pieces of food
Run a larger amount so the difference is obvious
Why it works
With continuous feed, the adjustment produces an immediate, visible difference; with tiny amounts, the change is hard to observe and control.

Use the oven as an alternative to an air fryer for finishing the pizza
If you don’t have an air fryer, you can finish cooking the topped pizza in the oven instead.
Finish a topped pizza in an air fryer at 180°C for 7 minutes
After topping the base, cook it in an air fryer at 180°C for about 7 minutes to melt cheese and heat through.
Expect a small end piece to remain in the feed tube when shredding/slicing
When shredding or slicing in a food processor, the last small piece often doesn’t feed through cleanly and may stick near the top.
Use the small feed-tube drip hole for slow, controlled liquid addition
If your food processor pusher has a small hole, use it to add liquids slowly (e.g., for dressings) while processing.
