During the fall I find I make soup at least 2 times a week, sometimes more. There's something about a hot bowl of soup that's so comforting. One of my favorite tools to use when I need to purée soup or even smoothies is my Cuisinart Smart-Stick Hand Blender.
Before I had the Cuisinart Hand Blender, when puréeing soups I would then have to use a ladle to transfer the chunky soup (often hot) into a stand blender. I disliked this for 2 reasons:
- I had to clean another container - UGH!
- I had to be careful that the liquid wouldn't explode out of the top of the blender since it was hot. I was always careful though and put a towel over the lid just in case it came bursting out.
Now puréeing is so simple. Just put the Cuisinart Smart-Stick directly into the pot (no transferring), and blend away.
Once puréed , simply remove the blender from the pot, separate the blender attachment, wash and store. That's it! Then I'm ready for my soup.
A favorite is my Butternut Squash soup for recipe view here.
You can also blend ingredients directly in pitchers, bowls, or the clear plastic beaker that’s included with the blender. For something so small it has a powerful 200-watt motor that operates with an easy one-touch control. It blends drinks, purées soup, mixes pancake and crêpe batters in seconds! Plus you can put both the stainless steel blending shaft and beaker in the dishwasher! What could be easier?
