appliance running, add the oil slowly through the hole in the
lid.

Thick mixtures, e.g. pâtés and dips, may need scraping
down. If the mixture is difficult to process, add more liquid.

Ice crushing - operate the pulse in short bursts until crushed to
the desired consistency.

Don’t use the blender as a storage container. Keep it empty
