What is the best tool to make Chimichurri sauce in?
I don't get it. I have a powerful immersion blender, a small food processor, a nice food chopper.
This isn't the first time I've run into this problem.
I followed a small recipe to make chimichurri sauce. It's so small that nothing I put it in really does the tricky. Why can't I find a tool that no matter the size of the food, I can mix it up. The recipe was 3 tablespoons of oil, 1 tablespoon of red vinegar, garlic, parsely, oregeno, garlic, red pepper flakes, s/p.
I ended adding water and made it watery. Actually I started off adding more oil but then added some water. My immersion blender blades couldn't quite mix it really good.
In the past, I've made the same mistake with similiar recipes and have tried my little chopper and even blender. I always have the same problem. Too small amount of ingredients for the blades to really get to it.
What am I missing?
also, even food processors are a pain because it's a small amount and the blade doesn't have much to work with and things cake onto the sides when the amount is so small. You don't know how many times I've said, I'm not making that again due to this kind of a thing
