    I have a boring old Oster blender that works just fine. - 7/11/18

    Very Good
    I cooked it in a pot and pureed it with an immersion blender. It's pretty good, but spicy. I may have put too much white pepper, or maybe it's the ginger that makes it hot. But you really don't notice a strong carrot flavor at all. And the texture is nice. - 5/1/19
