Is the smallest bowl small enough to puree herbs and spices with a bit of liquid into a paste?

Absolutely! I've made chimichurri sauce and pesto with no problem. Love this appliance for so many reasons!!

The smaller container is cylinder shaped. The four blades spiral from the very bottom of the container up to the 2 cup line. It would hold about 2 cups of puree paste.

I would recommend using a separate bowl. Although you could probably mix in it.

We make honey mustard with this - it's perfectly capable of making purees. All 6 bowls have their own lid, so you can make lots of things at once.

Yes, I have found mine to be brilliant for cooking small pieces of food. Heat it up slowly. It does become pitted and darkens.

You probably could use a hand mixer, but it is heavy plastic not a melamine surface. They are smaller than most mixing bowls and take up less space in your cupboard.

It is very small - not deep enough for such a bottle. Spice size containers work well but nothing bigger.

Good question. I just tried the smallest brush on my brown English tea pot. It was too big to fit into the spout.

This processor is small, only 3 1/2cups, which is perfect for most jobs, as I usually just cook for two. I don't really know exactly what you are asking.

Yes, but it would have to be made in very small batches. So, if you combined the ingredients in a larger container and fed the chopper incrementally, it should work. It does puree quite well. Just small amounts.

If this is the smaller bowl....yes it works!!! And you absolutely need it. I use it for most recipes.

The inside of the bowl might show some very shallow circular lines from the manufacturing process, however they polish out fairly quickly with use. Before I bought it, one of the reviewers mentioned using a bit of sandpaper to smooth it out.It will grind anything, I love it. My sister has one too, and uses it to grind all manner of spices.

The Waring Commercial WSG30 is perfect for smaller spice quantities. However, it is fast so if you had a batch to run you could quickly prepare it (everything I have put in it takes less than 12 seconds to make a very fine powder). The blending cups hold about 2 cups total volume - but I only fill them about 1/3 before blending... and smaller would be fine too.

"Small" is such a relative term. For crushing a single aspirin, this particular mortar might be overkill. On the other hand, it really doesn't take up much space at all and it is large enough that I wouldn't worry about having any of the ground pills spill out. It's very easy to clean and and decorative on the shelf. It seems to wear well and it's not expensive. I just now reduced two regular aspirin to the consistency of powdered sugar in 15 seconds. The bowl is about 3.5 inches wide and 2 inches deep. It holds 7 oz (liquid). Outside, it's 3.5 inches tall and 4 inches wide. The pestle is 5.25 inches long and easily fits my hand.

Yes, that is what I use and it works fine. Because the bowls are a bit shallow, just make sure that when you are mixing it doesn't slosh out of the bowl.

In a word, yes. Puree tutorial at the following link, if you need it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6PH6KZ83Lw

I have used this many times but I use this for chopping garlic, herbs, etc etc. I use a regular sized food processor that has an opening for the purpose of pouring liquids in it. This processor is mostly used for chopping small items CUZ it's easier to clean than the bigger ones. Hope this helps !!

Yes, you can cook a smaller amount. The portion doesn't matter. It will still come out just as good.
