Abstract: A household appliance includes the food preparation container, into which an ingredient for food preparation can be fed by the user. The household appliance includes at least one sensor for determining a feeding quantity of an ingredient as the ingredient is being fed into the food preparation container. A control device of the household appliance is configured to determine the feeding quantity based on a sensor signal of the at least one sensor such that a user can prepare particularly reliably and reproducibly a food that requires a uniform feed of an ingredient for a predetermined period of time.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a household appliance, in particular a household food processor, for preparing food particularly by chopping, blending and/or heating the food in a food preparation container. The household appliance comprises the food preparation container, into which an ingredient for food preparation can be fed by the user. At least one sensor for determining a feeding quantity of an ingredient as the ingredient is being fed into the food preparation container is provided, and a control device of the household appliance is configured such that the feeding quantity is determined based on a sensor signal of the sensor. A food that requires a uniform feed of an ingredient for a predetermined period of time can thus be prepared particularly reliably and reproducibly by a user.
