Used mine twice yesterday - mixing bread dough (instead of the mixer) and
made olive spread for the bread (bruschetta) with garlic, kalamata olives,
capers, olive oil, fresh basil. Fast, fast fast with the KA, and the
consistency I wanted. I couldn't get that with a knife, I don't think,
perhaps with some kind of a crusher and a lot of elbow grease. I guess I
could go into the mindfulness mode for both these preps, but yesterday
wasn't the day for it.
