Critical Success Points

  • Blend the sauce directly in the pot to achieve a smooth texture.
  • Bring each variant to a boil before adding the final ingredients (herbs, cheese, cream).
  • Allow the sauces to cool completely before sealing tightly.

Safety Warnings

  • Watch out for hot oil when cooking the onion.
  • Use the immersion blender with the lid slightly ajar to avoid splatters.
  • Handle hot jars with kitchen gloves.
