A couple of notes: I repeatedly said Ninja Master Pro, it's Ninja Master Prep. I love it!! Something I did wrong in my video review that I just learned. When making ice based drinks, do the ice on it's own first, then add your other ingredients. It makes the ice more like snow then baby ice chunks. As far as gadgets, this might intrique a non-cook into cooking. So far, I've made hummus, chicken salad, cheese dip, ice cream, italian breadcrumbs and a few various drinks. I hate processed breadcrumbs in the little cardboard cartons. I tossed those and now we make our own breadcrumbs in about 1 minute. So really no extra effort and it tastes so much better, plus I know exactly whats in it(herbs, bread, garlic, cheese)with no added chemicals or preservatives. For those people who rely on a food processor as their main go-to item when cooking, this might not be your thing. But for...Read more 89 of 91 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Euro-Pro Ninja Master Prep Blender and Food Processor, Blue (Kitchen) I've been putting this little blender through it's paces the last couple of days, and I have to say, it passed with flying colors.
- Icecubes (even the pretty large ones)were not an issue, it blasted right through them and did indeed produce creamy/fluffy snow. - Grinding nuts - awesome! I frequently use nuts in my baking and cooking, from really coarsely chopped to fine nut flours. It did it all! A regular food processor generally either can't go beyond the coarse chunks, or has the undesirable three-fold of nutbutter at the bottom, somewhat coarsely chopped nuts inbetween and hardly touched nuts on top! I would usually do little 1/4 cup batches in my coffee grinder, which a lot of shaking and sifting! Not anymore! - Chopping veggies - performed beautifully. I added chunks of random veggies, they all came out nicely and pretty evenly chopped - even leeks! - Finely chopped some lemon and orange peel in there too, no problem! Very nice and even processing...Read more 136 of 149 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Euro-Pro Ninja Master Prep Blender and Food Processor, Blue (Kitchen) I purchased this item at Bed Bath and Beyond instead of the Cuisinart blender I had intended to buy. This blender is less expensive, but the next time I am in the market for a blender or a food processor I think I would pick a different item. This seems to be one step up from those terrible Magic Bullets.
PRO: It comes with two different containers, one for "blending" and one for "processing". You can blend two different things without needing to clean the pitcher in between. CON: there isn't much difference between the food processor part and the blender part, other than in size. PRO: The blades detach for safe cleaning. CON: The blades themselves are difficult to clean, and I have found that the plastic part stains easily. PRO: The motor part is light and and the whole thing stores easily. I keep the blades in a shallow drawer with my cookie cutters, the pitchers and lids with my tupperware, and the motor attachments lives inside my large stock pot...Read more |
