Grinding Spices
Now it’s easy to spice up your life ... just use your Magic Bullet. No
pre-ground spice can hold a candle to a freshly ground blend; you
have no idea what you’ve been missing. In seconds you can have
pancakes sprinkled with fresh cinnamon, or eggnog with a pinch of
fresh, zesty nutmeg … the possibilities are endless, mouth-watering
and effortless. And with the ingenious Shaker Tops, you can serve
right to the table. Bon appetit!
First … Add your favorite fresh spice to the Short Cup.
Next … Twist on the Flat Blade and grind until you’ve created a
slightly textured powder.
Then … Twist on the Shaker/Steamer Top with the two sets of
small holes and sprinkle to your heart’s content.
Seasoned Butters. With almost no effort you can look like a
culinary school graduate ... by whipping up a few seasoned
butters. Just add chives, garlic, honey, mustard seed, whatever
you like, to slightly softened butter and whip in your Short Cup with
the Flat Blade. You’ll create a spread that will make everyday bread
and butter a five-star experience. Add a pat to the top of cooked fish,
chicken or into soups ... brilliance!
Grating Cheeses
Chopping cheese is a time-consuming process, and pre-shredded
cheese can be expensive. Now, with your Magic Bullet, you can
effortlessly cut up cheese in less time than it takes to find your
cheese grater. You can even twist a handy Shaker/Steamer Top
onto the Magic Bullet cup and turn your Magic Bullet cup into a
cheese shaker!
may want bigger, chunkier pieces as well. For example, when
making blueberry muffins, we recommend that you add about half of
the blueberries you intend to use in with the batter to be blended,
then add the other half after the batter is blended. Just twist off the
blade, add the whole berries, twist the blade back on and Shake
cocktail shaker style a few times. That way you get fantastic
blueberry flavor mixed right in with the batter, and delicious whole
blueberries throughout the muffins for wonderful texture. You can
use this technique with nuts, raisins, chocolate chips, whatever
you desire.
Chopping Fresh Herbs
Finally, an effortless way to get all of the zesty, pungent flavor of
fresh chopped herbs, without spending an hour at the cutting board.
Now, in just seconds, you can make any meal taste like it was
prepared by a gourmet chef.
First … Add several sprigs of your favorite herb to the Short Cup.
Then … Twist on the Cross Blade and give it several quick Pulses.
Remember to apply a bit of counter-clockwise pressure to the cup to
keep it from Locking On (see the Pulse technique on Page 17.)
Adding a pinch of fresh dill, parsley, chives, or basil over
soups, mashed potatoes, salads — literally any dish you can
think of — adds such zing to the flavor of the dish and just
enough “chichi-ness” to make your family and guests feel like
you’ve pulled out all the stops.
