The Twister Jar fits as an accessory on the motor block of our Blendtec high-performance blender. Its strong blade of cold-forged stainless steel manages what other devices of this type occasionally fail: It transforms nut kernels and almonds (natural or roasted) into deliciously creamy "butter" in no time at all and without any additives. Likewise, the knife crushes stale bread and rolls or cookies and crackers into crumbs, chickpeas it crushes into hummus and frozen bananas into vegan nicecream. And so on and so forth: you can cut dried fruits as ingredients for muesli bars and energy balls in the Twister Jar, make fresh doughs for pasta and pizza, mix herbs and seeds for pesto, mix mayonnaise ... A recipe booklet is included, as well as a spatula adapted to the shape of the plastic jar, with the help of which the vessel can be scraped out (and cleaned) completely. When processing more compact, creamy products - such as almond butter - the Twister lid provides support with its two spoons, which, when moved in the opposite direction to the rotation of the knife, steadily move the contents of the jug from the edge back to the center. The second, simple suction lid is used when rather liquid ingredients are to be crushed or mixed.
