Blending. Why?
Posted by: clank72 ()

I have a stupid question. I think I already know the answer.

Many recipe books and videos tell you to blend ingredients together at different stages.

For example: Blend the fruits alone, then add the hemp seed powder to the fruit and blend again. Why not just blend all together in one spin the first time?

Another example: Blend the banana and water together, then add the fruit and blend again.

Im not sure about all recipes, but I know that sometimes things just blend better if certain things are blended first, like in a green smoothie, Kale blends up better if its blended by itself with some water or juice, then any fruit or other veggies put in next...at least for me it has.

Sometimes if you add too much to the blender it won't blend. So you have to create a liquid base then add to it. Unless you have a really good blender.

By the way... the show The Drs gave the whole audience Vitamixes today. So unfair!

Thanks guys. After posting I asked my girlfriend about it and she explained. Basically it's all about consistency. Some things are best blended by them selves.
