Q: Can this food processor shred zucchini?
A: Yes, you can shred zucchini in the BN601 by using its reversible Slicing/Shredding Disc on the “Shredder” side. Install the disc over the spindle in the 9-cup bowl, lock on the feed-chute lid, then select the DISC program (or LOW speed). Feed zucchini sticks into the chute and use the pusher to guide them through for consistent shreds.
