Stick Blender
Grinder
Grates and finely chops ingredients such as herbs, spices, grains, cereals, chocolate, cheese, coffee beans, onions, garlic, hard boiled eggs, nuts (including almonds), sugar (for powdered sugar) and bread (for bread crumbs). It works as an efficient food processor for salsas, pesto, nut butters and more. Chocolate should be firm when ground. Do not overfill grinder. Always use on turbo speed.
French Whisk
Designed to beat and aerate. Quickly whips eggs and creams. Can be used in almost any recipe that calls for whipping or whisking. It can also be used in any bowl or pot, (even on the stovetop), for stocks, sauces, puddings, and soups.

Speed Buttons
Use the “On” button for all light, airy foods and for small amounts.
Use the “Turbo” Speed button for thicker or harder ingredients and for larger amounts. Do not run your blender for more than 1 minute at a time.
Mixing
Dip your L’EQUIP Stick Blender into the ingredients at an angle and blend. Switch it off before removing to prevent splashing. While blending, hold the top of the beaker with your free hand for better control.
Whipping
Rest the Stick Blender on the bottom of the beaker for a few seconds, then hold at an angle and slowly draw it upwards against the side of the beaker. When the ingredients are no longer drawn with it, go back to the bottom and repeat the process until the ingredients are at the desired consistency.
Blending
Use a light swiveling wrist motion in processing. Draw the blender up slightly and let it fall again onto the ingredients. Do not press or pound. The fineness of your results will depend on the length of processing.
