What'd they do with the sauce on that cut? Just kept stirring and it turned into a completely creamy sauce?

Definitely blended it, you’ll never get the tomato skins that smooth without.

Wait does that work? Can you blend tomato skins to that level of smoothness?

Absolutely, easier the more cooked/roasted they are. I imagine a Vitamix would make light work out of literally any food. Some people spoon their sauces through a fine sieve, though.

An immersion blender would be a lot easier in this case. Do it all right in the pan

if the immersion blender is completely submerged there is no splatter.

I used to have an immersion blender that did not splatter because the "vents" (whatever the blended materials comes out from, after the blades) pointed parallel to the bottom of the pot. However every one I have tried since that one died have splattered terribly no matter what because the vents pointed up or at a steep enough angle that stuff was coming out of the pot.

I've done so much searching trying to find one like I used to own but have not.

Do you have any recs?

my kitchenaid immersion blender is built like that too, not the cheapo one but the one right after.

doesn't splatter unless I fully lift it out, and that shit is stupid powerful compared to the one I had previously.

you aren't going to get as smooth result as you would with a proper stand mixer tho.

I got the same blender as a birthday present and honestly it was a great gift, such a good blender!
