My immersion blender, also known as a stick blender, is an old kitchen friend. When I need to blend something but the quantities are small or I’m in a hurry, it’s easy to use and very easy to clean – just rinse it under a tap. You can also use immersion blenders in a variety of containers – saucepans, large cups, and bowls for example.

I use my immersion blender a lot – especially when I’m making sauces or other things that are easily mixed in a bowl or cup. I also use it to make soup as it’s often easier to blend cooked soup ingredients in the saucepan than pour them into my regular blender.
Basic and easy to use, an immersion blender is a cheap alternative to both regular blenders and food processors but it’s not as versatile. However, in terms of convenience, ease of use and price, an immersion blender is hard to beat. They’re also small and compact which makes them ideal for traveling or small kitchens where storage space is limited.
