PREP TIME: 10 MIN.

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves (from about 1 bunch parsley)
  • ¾ cup fresh cilantro leaves (from about ½ bunch cilantro)
  • 1 small shallot, roughly chopped
  • 2 small garlic cloves, roughly chopped
  • 1 small Thai red chile, stemmed and seeded (optional)
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 1-2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ⅓ - ½ cup extra virgin olive oil

DIRECTIONS

  1. Place the parsley and cilantro leaves in the chopper accessory of the ZWILLING XTEND Hand Blender. Add the shallot, garlic, chile (with or without seeds), lime zest and juice, vinegar, salt, and cumin. Cover and pulse the blender several times to chop the ingredients.
  2. Add the oil in batches and blend to incorporate. Continue adding oil until you reach the desired consistency, either spoonable or pourable. Taste and add more seasoning if desired.

Tip

Start with a base of flat leaf parsley and change things up by subbing out cilantro for oregano, thyme, mint, or rosemary.

Info

The ZWILLING Xtend Hand Blender offers maximum flexibility because it is cordless and can be seamlessly combined with the ZWILLING ENFINIGY Accessory Set. This opens up additional applications – whether blending, chopping or whipping – for even more freedom in the kitchen.
