A method for peeling potatoes with a food processor and a food processor which comprises for food preparation a detachable food preparation vessel, a heating element for heating a food in the food preparation vessel and a rotatable tool for mixing or chopping the food in the food preparation vessel. The method includes attaching a potato peeling disc having an abrasive structure on its surface from above to the tool which is located centrally at a bottom of the food preparation vessel to establish a manually releasable, rotationally coupled connection such that in operation the potato peeling disc rotates at the same rotational speed as the tool; addition of potatoes into the food preparation vessel from above onto the potato peeling disc; motorized rotation of the tool in a first direction of rotation and peeling of the potatoes with the potato peeling disc inside the food preparation vessel.

A potato peeling disc for peeling potatoes has a central opening formed by an inner contour of the potato peeling disc. A surface of the potato peeling disc comprises a plurality of teeth. The teeth have an orientation such that potatoes are peeled by the teeth by rotating the potato peeling disc in a first direction of rotation about a central axis which is coaxial with the central opening.

In some embodiments, a liner for a blender can include a body dimensioned to fit within a cup for the blender. The body can define an inner volume and include an opening with a perimeter configured to engage a perimeter of an opening of the cup, such that when the liner is positioned within the cup, the resulting assembly is capable of being mechanically coupled with a blade assembly to enclose the volume with one or more ingredients therein for blending operation by the blender.

Proposed is a blender, in which a main body operates when a closure of the container lid on a container body is detected. In the blender according to the present disclosure, when the closure of the container lid is detected, a voltage of a preset signal pattern is applied to the first inductive coil of the main body, and the voltage is transferred to the second inductive coil of the container body by inductive coupling with the first inductive coil. The light emitting unit of the container body transmits a light signal to the light receiving unit of the main body by using the voltage transmitted to the second inductive coil, and the light signal has the signal pattern. When the light receiving unit receives the light signal of the signal pattern, the main body recognizes the closure of the container lid on the container body so that that the main body operates.

A storage caddy (12) for storing food processor assembly components includes an upper platform (14) that defines an upper aperture (16), and a lower platform (18) that defines a lower aperture (20). A side wall (22) extends between the upper and lower platforms (14, 18). The side wall (22) includes an interior surface (24) that generally defines an interior receiving space (26) in communication with the upper and lower apertures (16, 20). The side wall (22) further includes an exterior surface (28) opposite the interior surface (24). A retention feature (38) is coupled upward from the upper platform (14).
