Abstract

A tamping and scraping tool for a food processor includes a flat blade in the form of a segment of a circle and a handle extending perpendicularly therefrom. The blade has an arcuate circumferential scraping edge and a chordal scraping edge interrupted by a central arcuate recess configured as a smaller circle segment. The flat bottom surface serves as a tamping surface; the chordal scraping edge permits scraping material from the bottom wall of the processor; and the outer scraping edge permits scraping of material from the processor sidewall.
