Plug the Hand Blender into an electrical outlet.
Insert the Hand Blender into the mixture. Press the Variable Speed Controller to start. Use your free hand to cover the top of the Blending Pitcher for better stability and avoid splashing.
NOTE: Do not immerse Motor Body into liquids or other mixtures.
Use the draw up motion with the Hand Blender to move the ingredients within the Pitcher. Slowly draw it upwards against the side of the Pitcher. Repeat the process until the ingredients are at the desired consistency.
With your wrist, make a circular motion to draw the Hand Blender up slightly and let it blend again into the ingredients.
