blades struggled with ice solids; cleaning up messy leaks; and sighing pure dissapointment at the sight of yet another watery "smoothie" that couldn't be blamed on a rock-solid favorite recipe.

from www.amazon.com
ingeniously, the makers have avoided any reference to ice cubes in either the instruction manual or recipes (i get the point, though i still insist on using them).

created several recipes with it.
from www.amazon.com
i tried it for the first time with a cooks illustrated strawberry coulis recipe, which says blend for 20 seconds and then use a strainer to get it smooth.
from www.amazon.com
i followed a recipe for potato pancakes provided in a little cookbook that came with the blender.
from www.amazon.com
great for smoothies (i still drop in the ice after the blender is on, just to be on the safe side) but don't follow the recipes they include with the blender -- there's no need to add sugar or honey
from www.amazon.com
my wife uses a lot of ice in her recipes, so i needed something substantial to get the job done.

from www.amazon.com
i also use it to mill flax, grind pepper, liquify onions and garlic for recipes (my kids hate finding any onion in their food).
from www.amazon.com
the recipe book that came with it is pitiful.
from www.amazon.com
you cant judge a professional tool by a recipe book, they expect you to know how to use a blender.
from www.amazon.com
another note: if you are a raw food person, don't rely on the recipe book provided for much help.
from www.amazon.com
not so though, as the ez lacks any recipes(some models include a book).
