Immersion Blenders - The one stop piece of kitchen equipment.

Are you wondering what an Immersion Blender is? The more popular name is a wand blender or a stick blender or even a hand blender.

Is there any difference from a conventional blender? You can take your Immersion Blender right to where you want to blend as it's held in the hand. If you used a standard blender you would have to pour your food into it creating more mess but with an stick blender you can blend right on the spot in the food container.

Hand held blenders have only become a regular kitchen gadget in recent years, they were chiefly used in restaurants after they were invented in Switzerland over 50 years ago. They have now become so popular that there is a large choice available.

You can puree baby food with one of these blenders as well as the more popular stuff like blending soups,gravies,smoothies and milk shakes. With all the attachments available it's easy to make small batches of baby food and change the texture to suit the age of the child. A wand blender can liquidise most things including soft fruit and vegetables, batters and puddings, you can also make peanut butter and hummus. What's stopping you?

Hand blenders are available in many different variations, corded and cordless versions, single units or with multiple accessories including choppers, whisks and beakers. Depending on the features and accessories offered you can pay from $10 up to and over $100 going from the more economically priced plastic versions to the stainless steel options.

Sometimes you need the brute force of a table top blender but in the main Immersion Blenders are easier to use, less cost and can be stored away out of view. The benefit of these smaller blenders being so easy to clean clearly makes them a winner in the kitchen, rinse in running water or if allowed on your version put it in the diswasher. Apart from the fact that you have to be a little careful when using your blender to reduce splattering, you can't get past the fact there is no real skill required, anyone can do it. You are only limited to the width of the blade to which vessel you choose to mix in, from a narrow cup or beaker to a large pot.

What are the deciding factors when you go to choose your hand held blender?

Size and weight is a factor to be aware of, try holding a few different makes and see which fits you grip the best. A bigger motor and accessories will give you the most options when buying your blender but it depends what you are going to be using for the most whether you need all of this. If you are going to be using your blender in any kind of hot liquid then a plastic wand is not a good option as they can warp in hot liquids, a stainless steel option is more versatile. There's also the consideration of corded or cordless, and of course the price you want to pay.

Check out the pros and cons of different makes of Immersion Blenders by viewing the customer reviews on the internet, it might help you make your final decision and then you can find if the prices online are cheaper than the stores.
