TIPS AND HINTS

1.Liquid should not come closer than 1 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 gear- box 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.Do not overload work bowl. For best results most foods should not reach more than 2/3 of the way up the work bowl.

7.Liquids in work bowl should not exceed 1 ½ cups. Use quantities given in the recipe section as a guide.

8.Pour liquid ingredients into the mixing beaker first, unless recipe instructs otherwise.

9.Never operate the hand blender longer than 1 minute at a time. For best results, allow for 20-30 seconds rest time in between cycles.

10.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.

11.Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot on stove while not in use.

12.Do not put fruit pits, bones, or other hard material into the blending mix- ture, as these are liable to damage the blades.

13.Do not fill mixing containers too full. The level of mixture will rise when blending, and can overflow.

14.Adding liquids that are warm, not cold, facilitates blending solids with liq- uids.

15.Using a gentle up-and-down motion is the best way to blend and incorpo- rate ingredients uniformly.

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

17.To purée a soup, use the hand blender to blend the soup solids to the desired consistency using a gentle up-and-down motion right in the sauce- pan or pot. You can quickly change your soup into a thick and creamy blend.

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

19.The hand blender is perfect for frothing milk for cappuccino or lattes.

20.Use the hand blender to make smooth gravies and pan sauces.
