OPERATION

TURNING CORDLESS RECHARGEABLE HAND BLENDER ON/OFF

The power handle lets you operate the blender and whisk. Keep hands, hair, clothing, and other utensils away from all blades.

BLENDING AND MIXING

The blending shaft is specially designed for mixing and stirring all kinds of foods, including salad dressings, smoothies, shakes, powdered drink products, soups, and sauces. It is also ideal for combining dry ingredients. The blade mixes and stirs while adding only a minimum of air to your mixture. A gentle up-and-down motion is all you need to thoroughly blend the most flavorful, full-bodied liquid recipes. To avoid splatter, be sure the protective blade guard on the blending shaft remains submerged in the liquid while blending. Never remove it from liquid while the motor is running.

Attach the blending attachment into the power handle. (See Assembly for Blending Attachment, page 6.) Insert blending shaft into the mixture to be blended. Press and hold the Auto-Lock/Unlock button and press the Power ON button to turn the motor on. Once the motor is on, you can release the Auto- Lock/Unlock button. Do not hold the Power ON button down for more than 2 minutes at a time. To turn the blender motor off, release the Power ON button.

WHISKING

1. Make sure the whisk is attached to the gearbox before attaching it to the power handle (see page 6). Insert the whisk into the mixture to be whipped and turn unit on.
2. A large bowl is recommended to use when whisking to minimize splatter.

PULSE FEATURE

TO PULSE

Press and hold the Auto-Lock/Unlock button.
Then press and hold the Power ON button.
Repeatedly press and release the Power ON button while continuing to hold down the Auto-Lock/Unlock button to pulse until ingredients reach desired consistency.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

HAND BLENDER

Remove the blending shaft from the power handle before cleaning. Always clean the power handle and blending shaft thoroughly after using.
Clean the power handle only with a sponge or damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. To clean the blending shaft, wash by hand in hot water using a mild detergent. Be mindful of the fixed, razor-sharp blades. The blending shaft is NOT dishwasher safe.

WHISK

To clean the whisk attachment, simply release the attachment from the power handle. Once the whisk attachment is removed, detach the metal whisk from the gearbox by pulling the pieces apart. To clean the gearbox, simply wipe it with a damp cloth. To clean the metal whisk, wash with warm, soapy water. Do not submerge the gearbox in water or any other liquids.

TIPS AND HINTS

FOR HAND BLENDER

Be sure the protective blade guard on the blending shaft is fully submerged before blending ingredients.
To purée a soup, use the hand blender to blend the soup ingredients to the desired consistency, using a gentle up-and-down motion directly in the saucepan or pot.
When blending ingredients in a pot or pan, tilt the pan away from you to create a deeper area for blending and to prevent splatter.
If blending a small volume of liquid, tilt the container slightly, to submerge the blade guard, for best results.
When using a nonstick cooking surface, be careful not to scratch the coating with the hand blender.
When blending in the beaker – for example, if making a fruit smoothie – cut firmer fruit into ½- to 1-inch (1.25 to 2.5 cm) pieces for easy blending.
When blending in the beaker, put harder ingredients in first, then soft ingredients. Finish with any liquid you want to add unless the recipe instructs otherwise.
The liquid should not come closer than 1 inch (2.5 cm) to where the shaft attaches to the power handle.
The hand blender is perfect for frothing milk for cappuccino or lattes. Just warm milk in a small saucepan, and then pulse the hand blender gently, being sure to keep the blending blade guard fully submerged.
Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot on the stove while not in use.
Do not attempt to blend fruit pits, bones, or other hard materials, as these are likely to damage the blades.
Do not fill mixing containers too full. The level of the mixture will rise when blending and can overflow.
To whip air into a mixture, always hold the blade just under the surface.
Using a gentle up-and-down motion is the best way to blend and incorporate ingredients uniformly.
Use the hand blender to make smooth gravies and pan sauces.
Do not immerse the power handle in water or any other liquids.

FOR WHISK ATTACHMENT

Do not immerse whisk attachment gearbox in water or any other liquids.
Use the whisk attachment for whipping heavy cream or egg whites.
When whipping egg whites, use a very clean metal or glass bowl, never plastic. Plastic can contain hidden oils and fats that can ruin the delicate egg white foam. To help stabilize the egg whites, add 1/8 teaspoon (0.5 ml) of cream of tartar per egg white prior to whipping them. (If using a copper bowl, omit the cream of tartar.) Whip the egg whites until desired peaks form.
Whipping the egg whites too long causes them to dry out and become less stable.
When adding sugar to whipping egg whites to make a meringue, add it slowly when soft peaks just begin to form, and then continue whipping to form desired peaks.
When whipping heavy cream, if possible and time allows, use a chilled bowl and chill the whisk attachment. The best-shaped bowl for whipping cream is one that is deep with a rounded bottom to minimize any splatter.
The cream should come out of the refrigerator just before whipping. Whipped cream may be used at either soft or firm peaks, depending on preference. It may be flavored as desired. For best results, whip cream just before using.
The whisk attachment may also be used for any task that you would normally whisk by hand, like crêpe batters or eggs for omelets.

A great way to use up that surplus of summer garden zucchini – serve cold or warm!

Makes about 6 cups (1.5 L)
1 tablespoon (15 ml) extra virgin olive oil
2 medium leeks, white and light green parts, sliced

Black Bean Soup

This soup gets its rich texture from not rinsing the beans; the starchy liquid from the can is used to thicken the soup.

Makes about 6 cups (1.5 L)
1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
½ medium onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
1¼ teaspoons (6 ml) kosher salt, divided
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon (5 ml) ground cumin
3 cans (15 ounces [450 ml] each) black beans, not drained
1 cup (250 ml) chicken broth, low sodium
1 teaspoon (5 ml) red wine vinegar
Crème fraîche or plain, whole-milk yogurt for serving
Cilantro, chopped, for serving
Tortilla chips for serving

Put the oil in a stockpot set over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped vegetables and sauté until soft, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Add ¾ teaspoon of salt, bay leaf, and cumin. Cook, while stirring, until nicely fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the beans (with liquid from cans) and the broth. Simmer, partially covered, until all the ingredients are tender and the flavors have melded about 20 to 25 minutes. Discard the bay leaf.
Remove soup from the heat. Use a hand blender to blend until very smooth, about 1 minute in total. Add remaining salt and vinegar; blend an additional 10 to 15 seconds to incorporate.
Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
Serve, topping with a dollop of crème fraîche, a pinch of the chopped cilantro and tortilla chips

Put the ghee or butter into a large saucepan over medium/medium-low heat. Once the ghee/butter is hot, add the onion, jalapeño, ginger and garlic with the curry powder
and salt. Heat until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the butternut squash to coat evenly with the spices.
Add the coconut milk and broth. Increase the heat so the liquid comes to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to maintain a steady simmer. When squash is soft, approximately 20 minutes, use a hand blender to blend soup until completely smooth.
Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly.

Tomato Sauce

Makes about 3 cups (750 ml); enough sauce for ½ pound (227 g) of fresh pasta.

Makes about 3 cups (750 ml)
¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil
2 medium garlic cloves smashed
1 can (28 ounces [796 ml]) peeled plum tomatoes
½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) kosher salt 10 fresh basil leaves
¼ cup (60 ml) grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Put oil in a large saucepan over medium-low/low heat.
When the oil is hot, add the garlic, reduce the heat, and stir until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Be careful to keep the heat low enough so that garlic does not burn.
Add the canned tomatoes with the salt.
Increase the heat so that the mixture comes just to a boil. Reduce the heat immediately to maintain a low simmer. Allow to simmer to reduce by about one-third, about 20 minutes.
Use the hand blender to blend until smooth. Add in the basil and Parmesan, if using.
Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly.

1½ teaspoons (7.5 ml) pure vanilla extract

Put all ingredients in an extra-large bowl.

Berry Fool

A traditional British dessert, the fool is great any time of the year but is a real treat when summer berries are at their peak.

Makes about 4 cups (1 L)
2 cups (500 ml) mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries)
1 tablespoon (15 ml) granulated sugar
2 cups (500 ml) heavy cream, chilled
2 tablespoons (30 ml) confectioners’ sugar
½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) pure vanilla extract

Put the berries and granulated sugar into the mixing beaker.
Using the blending shaft, blend until almost fully puréed; reserve.
Put the remaining ingredients into a large to extra-large mixing bowl. Using the whisk attachment, whip until cream is just starting to thicken. Continue whisking until medium-firm consistency.
With a large spatula, gently fold in the berry mixture, streaky is OK.
Serve immediately for the best texture (fool will only stay in good form for about 1 hour, maximum).
