Every day modern kitchens are filled with more and more household appliances that can facilitate the work of housewives. One such invention is the blender, which has a wide range of possibilities.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, it should be noted that blenders are different. Some are in the form of tall jugs made of thick glass or plastic with a knife inside, others are a handle with a mechanism inside, to which various attachments are attached. The essence of both is in chopping food up to the state of mashed potatoes. Cooking with a blender is easy and simple - you just need to wash the food, cut it into large pieces and lay it out. Then turn on and grind to the desired consistency.
Step 2
Making mashed soups for housewives with a blender will turn into a sheer pleasure. You need to choose products, cut into large cubes, boil them until cooked in broth. Next, lower the blender attachment with knives inside into the pan, grind its contents to the consistency you need, and the soup is ready. You can turn it into a smooth puree or leave small pieces of food.
Step 3
Blender - a jug great for making cocktails (both milk and alcoholic). For example, put ice cream, banana slices, syrup and milk in it. Turn on the blender and in three to five minutes you will have a cocktail that you are used to buying in a cafe. As for soft drinks, you need to first crush the ice, then pour in all the components of the future cocktail and stir for a few more seconds. Blender is a modernized version of the shaker that will allow you to become a real bartender.
Step 4
Prepare different sauces without using a grater, pestle, or other tools that exhaust you when chopping food. The famous Italian Pesto can be made in just five minutes. You will need basil (washed and dried leaves), pine nuts (peeled), parmesan (diced), garlic, and olive oil. First, combine the pine nuts, basil, garlic and olive oil. Then add the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and blend until smooth. The main thing is to choose the ingredients for the sauce, and the blender will prepare it for you.
