Tips and Hints
TIPS AND HINTS
1. Liquid should come within an inch of
where the shaft attaches to the motor
housing.
2. Some spices may scratch the chopper/
grinder attachment.
3. When using with a nonstick cooking
surface, be careful not to scratch the
coating with the hand blender.
4. Do not immerse motor body housing,
chopper/grinder cover, or whisk gearbox in
water or any other liquid.
5. Cut most solid foods into ½-inch cubes for
easy blending. Suggestion: use chopper/
grinder for chopping and grinding solid
foods.
6. Pour liquid ingredients into the mixing
container rst, unless recipe instructs
otherwise.
7. To avoid splashing, don’t turn the hand
blender on until the blade is beneath the
surface of the mixture and do not pull
the hand blender out of the mixture while
blender is running.
8. Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot
on stove while not in use.
9. Do not put fruit pits, bones, or other hard
material into the blending mixture, as
these are liable to damage the blades.
10. Do not ll mixing containers too full. The
level of mixture will rise when blending,
and can overow.
11. Adding liquids that are warm, not cold,
facilitates blending solids with liquids.
12. For recipes calling for ice, use crushed
ice (not whole cubes) for best results.
13. Using a gentle up-and-down motion is
the best way to blend and incorporate
ingredients uniformly.
14. To avoid spatter, turn the hand blender o
and let the blade stop completely before
lifting the unit out of the mixture you are
processing.
15. To whip air into a mixture, always hold
the blade just under the surface.
16. To make a soup creamy in texture, use
the hand blender to purée the soup
solids to the desired consistency using
a gentle up-anddown motion right in the
saucepan. You can quickly change your
soup into a thick and creamy blend.
17. If you are making a dip or spread, it is
not necessary to process completely into
a smooth purée; leave some texture for
interest.
18. When making compound butters, remove
the butter from the refrigerator and let
it come to room temperature before
blending in the ingredients.
