QUICK TIPS

• Be sure the protective blade guard on the
shaft is fully submerged before blending
ingredients.
• To purée a soup, use the hand blender to
blend the soup ingredients to the desired
consistency, using a gentle up-and-down
motion directly in the saucepan or pot.
• When blending ingredients in a pot or pan,
tilt the pan away from you to create a deeper
area for blending and to prevent splatter.
• If blending a small volume of liquid, tilt the
container slightly, to submerge the blade
guard, for best results.
• When using a nonstick cooking surface, be
careful not to scratch the coating with the
hand blender.
• When blending in the beaker – for example, if
making a fruit smoothie – cut firmer fruit into
1.5 - 2.5cm pieces for easy blending.
• When blending in the beaker, put firmer
ingredients in first, then soft ingredients.
Finish with any liquid you want to add, unless
recipe instructs otherwise.
• Liquid should not come closer than 3cms of
where the shaft attaches to the power handle.
• The hand blender froths milk perfectly for
cappuccino and lattes. Just warm milk in a
small saucepan, then pulse the hand blender
gently, being sure to keep the blending blade
guard fully submerged.
• Use the hand blender to make smooth gravies
and pan sauces.
• Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot on
stove while not in use.
• Do not attempt to blend fruit pits, bones or
other hard materials, as these are likely to
damage the blades.
• Do not fill mixing containers too full. The level
of mixture will rise when blending and can
overflow.
• Using a gentle up-and-down motion is the
best way to blend and incorporate ingredients
uniformly.
• To whip air into a mixture, always hold the
blade just under the surface.
