Carol–it could, but it has a very small cup. I think it would make about a half cup at a time, which is kind of not much.

But, I have ground a small amount of nuts into a smooth paste with it.

I just discovered your blog and love it! Does this machine make really smooth nut butters? Thanks!

Your post cracked me up.
Love the pics.
I never heard about the Multi-Grind - sounds fantastic!

And as for the multi-plane - i think I bought one a while back but I forgot to use it yet. Better dig it out from the back of the drawer. You see I have always been a bit fond of my little lemon zester even though other people berate them.

Thanks for taking part, Barbera - look for the round up next week some time.

Glad you got a laugh out of it. That is what happens when I post at three in the morning after being up all night painting. (But, our library is now a lovely shade of blue–the exact color of Tibetan turquoise. This is what happens when your husband is an artist.)

Don’t get me wrong–I still use my zester–especially if I want sturdier strips of zest for garnishing. I just like how finely the Microplane cuts the zest.

thanks to you – I remembered I had bought one and never used it. I tried it at the weekend. so far it is excellent – for lemon peel, garlic, ginger and gruyere. Thanks for nudging my rusty memory!
