Anyone else risk cutting their tongue on the food processor blade just because

[luisa_calif]

whatever is so darn tasty? (AFTER scraping down the bowl, etc, just in case you thought I meant while it was still processing...)

In my case, pesto made from fresh basil & fresh garlic just plucked from our as yet meager garden.

 

[angak]

No, you didn't!! I have too much fear of that blade. I can barely handle it to get it to the sink.

 

[judy-mass]

Never have put my tongue near the blade...

I just risk my fingers!

 

[karennoca]

Luisa, I just made basil pesto too. Mine was basil, fresh garlic, macadamia nuts

lemon juice, evoo, and fresh roasted tomatoes. Oh yum!

 

[michael-in-phoenix]

That thing cut me bad once. I treat it like a razor blade with no handle!

 

[luisa_calif]

Macadamias! Zounds!

 

[dawnnys]

No, no, no! If you were my kid you'd be standing in the corner ;o) Please don't!

You could always use your finger to wipe it off and then lick your finger. And even then...

 

[traca]

Guilty!

 

[luisa_calif]

Guess it's just you and me, girl!

 

[joe]

Does risking a finger to scrape stuff off the blade and then lick it up count?

 

[shaun-in-to]

Scarred fingers are badges of honor. A forked tongue is a major nuisance.

 

[barb_b]

I have knife and burn wounds that I now will call badges of honor! Love it!!

 

[charlie]

remedy--after you empty the bowl, whril it one last time which cleans the blade--then lick the bowl.

with fingers or spatula

 

[luisa_calif]

What a good idea! You saved me from a biforcated tongue!

 

[dawnnys]

Good thinking, Charlie

 

[traca]

Oh the things I do without a witness.... smileys/smile.gif
