What do homemade pesto, creamy hummus and fresh-ground spices have in common? Food processors are often viewed as the underrated step-child of the blender, but they are so much more than a pint-sized smoothie maker. So, when should you use a blender versus a food processor?

Food processors, on the other hand, make quick work out of chopping rough foods like nuts and spices, and are better when dealing with smaller quantities of food like garlic and herbs for sauces, dressings, dips, and homemade flours.
