Euro Pro Food Processor

For the kind they bring you in restaurants with chips do you have to cook it or keep it completely raw? I’m reading conflicting advice. I’m not talking about pico de gio. Also, would a blender work just as well as a food processor to mix and mince? I’m reading a lot of good recipes but should I cook it or not? I don’t like crunchy chunks of onion and jalapeno, I like the way it is in the mexican restaurants.

Every decent Chinese restaurant makes congee (jook), rice porridge, that is creamy, the rice having almost dissolved into a milky fluid. I can’t seem to make this happen, always get the distinct rice grains floating in watery broth. I’ve tried cooking it for hours, stirring continually, any number of ways, always with the same results. The closest I came was grinding the dry rice in a blender before cooking them, but it still wasn’t the real thing.

PLEASE READ!!!!

I am about to go buy my dad a birthday present. He is about 60 years old and he loves to take care of his health. All the time, he is preparing these weird juices with all kinds of vegetables and fruits. He doesnt care what it tastes like as long as it is healthy (or he thinks it is healthy) Well I am deciding wheteher I should buy a blender or juicer(juice extractor).
The juicer is good because he can get the juice out of things like celery and that kinda stuff, but for example, you cant put a banana in a juice extractor (or so I think) and he likes bananas a lot. The blender i wanted to buy is this TV product called NINJA MASTER PREP. It is a powerful blender and a food processor and I like that because he also likes to prepare diced onions with tomatoes and a lot of chopped vegetables a lot. But also, we already have a blender at home, but he doesnt like to use it, so thats why i thought of the NINJA because it is more like a personal blender.

So idk what to go for. Both have cons and pros and some stuff i cant remeber i didnt mention here.
What would u buy???
