What tool do I use when I absolutely, positively need to puree something as fine as humanly possible?

Supercollider, google, my cock, i dont fucking know

Nah, a blender would work better. It pulls the food down into the blade, and pushes it back up the sides.

Food processor just flings shit to the sides and requires scraping every once and awhile to push it back to the middle.

>implying you can get food broken down into particles less than 1/90th the thickness of a human hair with that

Go back to Cholula, Ixtli. We're in the age of steel now.

No, I'm succeeding. Have fun straining your mud after playing with your sticks and still having hair sized chunks in your food.

wtf, no. They also pull the food down to the blades and make a cyclone like formation. It just needs enough liquid to do so, just like a blender. But yeah, for OP's specific question, a blender is the right answer of course.

Is cost or practicality an object?

If not then the finest possible texture is achieved by an ultrahigh pressure homogenizer. 2nd best is a rotor-stator type homogenizer. 3rd best is Pacojet.

For what can be done practically at home? Blender.

Yes, a blender works similar to a food processor but the blender spins many times faster, which means it takes that much less time to get your fine texture. Food processor is for chopping or making a coarse paste. Blender is for finer work.

Exactly. So don't use it.

>> No.6196883

For cooking at home? A blender and then a strainer. Or a food mill.

The blender needs it as well. Sometimes, moreso.

>> No.6196955

Run it through a tamis after a blender. Then into a centrifuge if you want pulp separated from liquid.
