TIPS FOR USING THE CUISINART® QUICK PREP® HAND BLENDER

•Using a gentle up and down motion is the best way to blend and incorporate ingredients uniformly.

•Turn the CSB-33 series Hand Blender off and let the blade stop com- pletely before lifting the unit out of the mixture you are processing to avoid spatter.

•Use Lo speed when adding solid ingredients to liquid.

•Adding liquids that are warm, not cold, facilitates blending solids

with liquids.

•For recipes calling for ice, use crushed ice (not whole cubes) for best results.

•To whip air into a mixture, always hold the blade just under the surface.

•To make a soup creamy in texture, use the CSB-33 series Hand Blender to purée the soup solids to the desired consistency using a gentle up and down motion right in the saucepan. You can quickly change your soup into a thick and creamy blend.

•If you are making a dip or spread, it is not necessary to process completely into a smooth purée, leave some texture for interest.

•When making compound butters, remove the butter from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before blending the ingredients.

•The CSB-33 series Hand Blender is perfect for frothing milk for cappuc- cino or lattes.

•Use the CSB-33 series Hand Blender to make smooth gravies and pan sauces.

•The CSB-33 series can be safely used in a saucepan with a nonstick surface as the blade itself never touches the pan.

•For best results when adding celery to a recipe, use a vegetable peeler to remove tough outer strings from celery before slicing.
