sorry to clarify, raw pate, which tool is the right job? I find am craving less nuts and seeds but when do eat them, blendtec or food processor?

p.s. liked your video on grocery store tour, good messages.

For nut cheeses- usually a blender is used.. In general, a food processor is more often used for pates- that being said, I prefer to use a juicer, such as the Omega 8006/8004 with the blank plate for my pates. I like the consistency better... you can also make nut cheeses this way..

@coeliacus Emersion blenders do have the power to mangle carrots, it will not shred like a processor will. They are really made to blend at the bottom of container usually very hot soups. One thing they are good at is making low-fat toppings. Mix very cold low fat milk (Near freezing) with the blender starting at the bottom of a plastic or steel cup and move the blinder up as the milk whips. Add whatever flavorings you like, my daughter uses berries of all types.

hi - thanks for the vid. Can a hand held emmersion blender (200 Watt) replace a food processor? Is it powerful enough to chop uncooked carrots for salad for example?

thanks!

I have been wondering about this question for a couple decades. You made it worth the wait to find out--lol! Very professional presentation!

@rawfoods thank you very much! I try to eat them as raw as possible as nature intended, and don't make pates all the time, but sometimes I guess I get bored.

thank you SO MUCH for this VERY informative video. Have been considering the blendtec wildside but am not sure if I truly need it as my cuisinart blender works well for my green smoothies everyday and good value of around $60-80 for 3 year warranty.

I was always curious if making a raw macadamia or raw cashew "cheese" (cashew,red pepper,cayenne). or more importnalty, raw pates.

would strongly appreciate your views on this.

thank you so much for this, wish more raw talk on this,hard 2 find.
