The pudding is in the cake mix itself. All cake mixes don't have pudding in them; so checking the label is very important. ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

Re: [CnD] New Ninja Question
I have a vita mix here myself so basically what happens is, is that the blades spin fast enough to cause friction in the water to heat it up. I assume the ninja works basically the same way. However, these blenders are quite loud so honestly it's easier to heat water up in one of those electric tea kettle then do the mixing of the soup in the blender for a lot less time. I assume the ninjas are decent but the vita mix is have a very powerful motor and can chop up anything.

Pulse buttons on these devices just turn the power on for as long as you hold the button in. When you take your finger off the button the blender turns off.

Re: [CnD] New Ninja Question
Hi Shirley, We bought our Ninja at Bed Bath And Beyond, but I know you can also buy them through Amazon or at Target, and probably a lot of other places too! I did make chicken soup the other day, but I only prepped the veggies with the Ninja. I don’t think it gets things hot enough to cook. If I find out otherwise, I’ll let you know. We decided on buying the Ninja rather than the VitaMix because it is not nearly as expensive, and I already know two other people who have Ninjas and love them to pieces! I think I’m fast joining them! Desi On Nov 25, 2013, at 11:53 AM, shirley baker wrote: > I've heard that you could make soup with the Ninja.

Re: [CnD] My New Ninja
Hi, Desi, Thank you very much for this explanation. I may have one of these in my future! . Thanks, too, to the person who posted what Consumer Reports has to say. Walt, the Pulse button is also used to chop things. You hold it in for the time specified in the recipe. If you hold it in longer, you may end up mush when what you wanted was small pieces. My first food processor was a GE and I loved that machine. Like the Ninja, it was so easy to put together, take apart, and clean. Darn it, Desi, why did you have to tell us about this Ninja? Now I want one! . Jennifer On 11/25/13, Desi Noller wrote: > Hi Walt, > > I see you already got a fantastic explanation of the pulse feature, so I > won’t add anything else.

Re: [CnD] New Ninja Question
Desi, Tara's statement about the Vita Mix being loud has me a bit concerned about the Ninja. Is it loud as well? If so, I may have to rethink getting it, as I cannot stand really loud things. (Tara, thanks for posting that, for I hadn't thought about the noise factor.)

Re: [CnD] New Ninja Question
What is the difference between the Ninja and Vitamix beside price, anything? Thanks.

I did make chicken soup the other day, but I only prepped the veggies with the Ninja. I don't think it gets things hot enough to cook. If I find out otherwise, I'll let you know. We decided on buying the Ninja rather than the VitaMix because it is not nearly as expensive, and I already know two other people who have Ninjas and love them to pieces!
