Title: something wrong?
Post by: Janem on December 22, 2012, 12:23:37 am

I have been making the ketchup recipe from the my way of cooking and it just working the way it used to and I am not sure why. my blades are chopping but it seems like when it comes to the pureeing they just don't seem to make everything as smooth as it used to. The ketchup has peppercorns, bay leaf etc in it. after the 1 minute on speed 10 it still has the whole peppercorns in it and chunks of bay leaf stems, and even tomato seeds can be seen. why isn't it pureeing anymore? I looked at it when empty the the blades are moving when on speed 10. and it chops fine as normal at the lower speeds. What is wrong? >:(

I'm not sure, Janem - but I'd be contacting your consultant.  She/he should be able to give some guidance here - or even come around to view the problem first hand

Have you checked the blades aren't on reverse. Why not try with a small bit of mixture and see if that works.

Depending on the age and usage maybe your blades are blunt?? Would be speaking to your consultant..

Have you made THIS recipe before,  in the TMX?
I usually grind the hard stuff first and then proceed with recipe.
