Immersion Hand Blender From Waring Pro
Immersion blenders have come to us from the restaurant industry, scaled-down versions of what are known as “Rambos” in kitchen slang, named for the iconic film character because they look similar to some of the massive weapons Sylvester Stallone wields in the trilogy (or is it a quartet?). Waring Pro ’s new Immersion Hand Blender (model #SB10) is as handsome to behold as it is efficient to use. It is simply marvelous for making soups, salad dressings, dips, sauces, creamy chocolaty mousses and other desserts. If you’ve never used one, you’re in for a treat. A clunky, chunky soup becomes a professional-looking, smooth, velvety purée with the hand blender, or you can blend it to whatever degree you wish. With bean soups, for example, I like to blend about half the soup and leave the rest with whole beans. It makes for a very nice texture and yet one can still get a sense of the beans. The immersion hand blender has become an integral part of our home kitchen just as it would be in any professional one. MSRP: $39.99. For more information, go to www.waringpro.com
