So FAST! Fresh PICO with the Breville Sous Chef 16 Peel & Dice

Get this recipe and others in our BRAND-NEW KZbin Cookbook! www.wellyourworld.com/cookbooks
You know I love pico, and now you can make a massive batch of pico in a fraction of the time thanks to the Breville Sous Chef 16 Peel & Dice. This is a pretty high quality machine and it comes with tons of attachments which I will show you in this video. It dices, slices, juliennes, makes french fries, shreds and grates, and even peels potatoes.
Turns out the additional dicing kit comes free if you register your device online with Breville. Silly me.

The more i use this unit, the better I like it. Worth the investment.

[@createwithconfidence8094]

I know your video was published two years ago. I wanted you to know that your review was so helpful in making my decision to purchase this expensive and awesome food processor. I've been eating whole foods, plant based for almost 5 months now and slicing and dicing was starting to wear me down. I knew in order to make my dietary changes last longterm, I needed help and this processor is it! It just came today and I've put it through it's paces. I absolutely love it!

[@CarolinaFlorezCoaching]

how is the cleanup? I have a vegetable chopper that I don't feel saves me time because of the cleanup and this seems similar.

[@createwithconfidence8094]

@@CarolinaFlorezCoaching I run a sink of soapy dish water. I place the pieces in the water and swish the pieces around the water. I may use a paper towel to wipe around the bowl to ensure it gets clean. But I usually just use my hands and fingers. I rinse and lay out the pieces to dry. The vegetable chopper I had was much harder to clean than my Breville food processor.

[@swmiller999]

@@CarolinaFlorezCoaching , clean up does take a bit, but you save some much time and as you can see the end result is amazing. It does come with a brush and a spatula that are specially designed. You must be careful around this machine and the blades are so SHARP!!

Thank you!

[@rohittkrr]

I and my gf like to cook Mexican over the weekend. She is in charge of pico de gallo and it takes her about 2 hours to make. We received our peel and dice food processor yesterday and it took her 1 hour to do first batch and 5mins to do the second batch. THATS INSANE!! We also did the guacamole in the mini bowl and later made salsa from scratch, and both of them took about 30 mins (including looking up salsa recipe and cleaning).

[@sn232]

That is by FAR the BEST informative video online for how these new dicing parts work! Better than what Breville put out there for viewers...I want to know what it sounds like when operating, not pretty music in the background so I have no idea what it sounds like in action. Thank you so much!!!

[@WellYourWorld]

Ok I’ll make sure you can hear it on the next video. But spoiler alert, it’s really very quiet.

[@greensong63]

@@WellYourWorld Please please ditch the music, always. (Even 10 seconds at the beginning of a podcast severely rattles my nervous system. The little drip noise at the beginning of Ted Talks is tolerable, maybe.) Obviously, this is just my experience, but it's a heartfelt request

[@Tegzee]

You could do the tomatoes last, like you demonstrated with just the top off and then dump the diced tomatoes into a colander or sieve to remove some of the fluid if it’s too wet.

[@WellYourWorld]

Totally yes that would dry things up nicely. Thank you!

I've been making pico for at least 15 years now, and have been using an Nemco EZ chopper for the dice work for the last 10 or so. I found this video because I am considering buying the Breville Sous Chef for making salsa, slaw, etc. Might also use this for pico, but it did look like it was tearing the tomatoes up, which I sort of expected because of either the distribution arm or how it feeds from a lateral movement to vertical. I always leave the core in (some knife work required). I drain the juice and save it for use it in other things (soups, marinades because I'm an omnivore, etc). I fabricated a 1 gallon storage solution that strains out, leaving about an inch of room for juice collection.

[@carolynpec]

Love your tips on coring the tomatoes, and think that will be the way I make my pico from now on. Thank you for also demonstrating perfectly how to get the most out of your Peel & Dice!

[@JackieDannenberg]

Thank you so much for doing this video. I have had the slice and dice pieces for a long time, like YEARS ! I’ve watched your video more than once. I made a quadruple batch of New England Clam Chowder today. I used the slice and dice for the potatoes, I also used the standard pieces to do the carrots, celery and onion but next time, I’ll use the slice and dice for the onion. I wasn’t ready last night to use the slice and dice when I did the onions. I watched your video today and said “That’s it, I’m using it !” I did it right the first time thanks to carefully watching you and how you put the parts together to use it. Chowder made and all in the freezer. Thanks so much ! I won’t be scared to use it anymore !

[@vfran838]

I love how much attention to detail you have. I used to just make things like this with a straight S blade without worrying about the dicing. But this definitely looks nice! Also - you could take the tomatoes and put them into a sieve to drain them before adding them to the whole batch to separate out some of the liquid. This looks amazing! I wonder how long this will last for you?? Thanks for your video. I used to work at Sur La Table and they would be proud to have you demo this machine!!

[@createwithconfidence8094]

I still love my Breville sous chef peel and dice! Peeling potatoes and slicing the potatoes, celery, onion and carrots for slow cooker vegetable pot roast takes only a few minutes. I use it for Chef AJ's 5 minute salsa. I dice vegetables in large quantities for salads 5 days a week for 2 people. In short, this appliance keeps me happy on my whole food plant exclusive lifestyle.

[@amitchakraborty1757]

Great video. Like others said, great demonstration of how this thing works. It really helps potential purchasers determine if they would choose this product or not. Great camera and sound work too. Keep it up!

I have to tell you. I ordered mine last month for my birthday. It came (finally) a few days ago. It is everything you said it was. Extremely well made, heavy and obviously Breville does things right. My additional dicing kit is on back order but I am dicing and slicing away for pico to can. Thanks for the great tutorial. Again this is well worth it. p.s. I also mentioned you were why I ordered their processor and they needed to sign you up. :)

[@katievdbshsh757]

I absolutely plan to make my pico this way in future. It was really faster than the knife. Thanks, God bless you from grandma Katie in Oregon

[@foofourtyone]

In my opinion, it doesn't save time .Because, now you need to clean the whole thing up. Which also takes quite some time, does it? I believe one is as fast as this machine by just using a knife. But, if you not that comfortable with using a knife, this could be an alternative for sure. Anyways, the Pico looks absolutely delicious.

[@franchescas5292]

Dillon, regarding the wet tomatoes, when I use Roma tomatoes in salad I cut them in half crosswise and squeeze some of the liquid/seeds out. You could then put them in the feed tube that way. I just bought a Cuisinart but saw on their website that they have a similar grid attacment. Great demonstration, thanks for posting.

Very informative video... was on the fence on buying this unit to make stuff like pico, and now I know it's just too much work for a batch of pico. To be honest it takes me about 5 minutes to chop and make my pico with a knife and cutting board. It would take me 5 minutes just to setup this bad boy up and then some to clean it up and put everything back. Thanks again for the video

[@VeganTKDMaster]

Thanks for sharing! Your pico recipe looks so simple and yet wonderful, and I plan to try it. I bought my spouse the Sous Chef 16 Pro years ago for our anniversary, and we both love it!

I literally opened the box, saw it then washed it, and used it to make Christmas dinner. I kid you not, it is the best machine I ever used--next to my Vitamix. My kitchen is becoming quite the "vegan kitchen" and I am super proud of the investment we've made into our health and our children's health (and these tools will help me make healthy things they will actually enjoy eating).

Easy to follow presentation. Being a relatively new home cook, I just purchased this Breville food processor, and wanted to watch a few video demos, before reading the user’s manual in order to get more comfortable with using this product. Appreciate your pointing out that the 8MM and 16MM dicing disks were not included with this processor. I thought they were included from looking at the pictures on the box… Would have been frustrating to have been ready to use them in following a recipe, and realized they were “sold separate” accessories ($130 accessories + $500 food processor = $630... Expensive!). Your pico recipe demo is an excellent example of how to use this food processor, and encouraged me to make some of my own pico!
