It's not just for frozen drinks anymore! That's right, your blender is one useful appliance. We've been reminded of this very obvious (but important) fact in author Rebecca Ffrench's new Ultimate Blender Cookbook. Suddenly sauces, baking and even burgers have taken on new life.

Don't reserve walnut miso butter strictly for beans. Try it slathered on carrots, tossed with broccoli or even mixed with a mélange of steamed veggies.
