Question:
We have a Ninja pro Blender, do you feel that is powerful enough for making dressings and sauces smooth or should i invest in a vitamix?
— Karen Reinhard
Answer:
If you are going to make the white bechamel sauce, you have to make it in smaller amounts so that you can get that velvet creaminess of the sauce If you have the ninja. Uh, you can also take the, we'll say you're making a be milk and I would put it through a double mesh strainer so that you get any residue taken up. But you'll still get, still get a beautifully creamy, creamy sauce. We have a ninja here. I find that it does a great job. I do find that that 7-year-old Vitamix behind my back, um, is sort of the king or queen of my kitchen. So, uh, you don't have to go out and get a Vitamix though, you can work that ninja pro blender and it'll do I think a good job. It has a lot of settings on it, a lot of buttons and things like that.
