❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1. What is the appropriate amount for making dips with the CH-208?
The CH-208 features a 500ml bowl, which is ideal for the recipes provided (2-4 servings). If the amount is too small, the blades may not reach the ingredients, so we recommend adding at least 100g of ingredients. For larger quantities, blend in 2-3 batches.
Q2. How long do homemade dips last?
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Hummus and guacamole typically last 3-4 days, while salsa and tzatziki last 2-3 days. Guacamole, made with avocado, tends to oxidize easily, so store it with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface and add extra lemon juice to prevent discoloration.
Q3. How do I use the pulse function?
The pulse function makes the blades rotate only while the button is pressed. Use it when you want to retain some texture in your ingredients (e.g., for salsa or guacamole). One pulse should last approximately 0.5-1 second. Blend in several short pulses until you achieve your desired texture.
Q4. Can I modify these recipes for children or those who dislike spicy food?
Yes. For salsa, omit the green chili and use only tomatoes and lime juice for a milder flavor. For guacamole, omit the chili powder and add more lemon juice to make it more palatable for children. Edamame hummus, as is, has a gentle flavor and is popular with children.
Q5. Where can I purchase the Happilaff CH-208?
It is available for purchase on the Happilaff official online store. Free shipping is provided across Japan.
