Critical Success Points
- • Step 1 – Use only fresh herbs and vegetables; stale produce reduces flavor.
- • Step 4 – Blend only until roughly combined; over‑blending dilutes the herb punch.
- • Step 6 – Store in an airtight container with a protective oil layer to prevent oxidation.
Safety Warnings
- • Use caution when handling the blender blades; they are very sharp.
- • Ginger and garlic can cause skin irritation; wash hands after handling.
- • Keep knives pointed away from your body and use a stable cutting board.
