⚙ Grinding in a Food ProcessorBlender
💡In a food processor, grind in short pulses and check between pulses: it's easy to go from coarse to paste. (Sesame for tahini, on the other hand, is ground continuously.)
3
Add the olive oil gradually, while blending In a blender, until to a smooth, even spread.
⚙ Fat in a Thin StreamBlender
💡The thin stream is everything: fat that goes in too fast can't bind, and the sauce breaks. For mayonnaise and hollandaise, if this happens, start with a fresh yolk and slowly add the broken sauce to it; if the sauce is too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water.
4
If the spread is too thick, add the water and process again.

🔧 Tools needed (4) · 🍳 One cooking vessel
Blender· 💡 Workaround, changes the dish: Stick blender (Less smooth, mainly for liquids) · Food processor (Less smooth with liquids)
Stove· 💡 Workaround, changes the dish: Portable hot plate (one weaker burner) · Camping gas stove (One burner, outdoors) · Electric pressure cooker (multicooker) (One pot, no real shallow frying)
