How does a food processor work differently than a blender?
In: Technology
1. A food processor usually has more power so can “blend” or mix more for longer- mix for example a dough in a blender, it will burn out and cut the power -or fuse if it’s a cheap model and then cut your circuit if you do too much in it. Blenders are best for short sharp bursts for example, smoothies and soups but not for heavy going stuff or for any longer than a few seconds or a few minutes.
2. Food processors have more tools and can blend/chop/mix and get different texture results. Blenders tend to just do liquids or make things more liquidy (blenders can make cakes and bread mixtures and the tools mean it wont turn to liquid or puree or smoothie like with a blender)
3. Food processors can mix up more in terms of volume than blenders, generally speaking.
4. Food processors tend to have a longer life.
5. Blenders cost a lot less and are easier to clean!
