Immersion Blender?

Immersion Blender?

Has anyone used an immersion blender with a stainless steel shaft ON stainless steel pots?

I have one and I'm terrified I'm going to scratch my pots...but I'm finding so many good soup recipes I want to try! I know I could probably lug out the big ol' blender but the whole point of getting the immersion blender was to use it for these types of soups. Chat Icon

All the time! If the liquid in the pot is deep enough, I tilt it up just a little bit so the blender isn't flush against the bottom. That can help with hot air pockets as well. Also, I don't just move it around in the pot. I put it down, blend in one spot, and then move it to a new spot. Once it's mostly blended it will move around much more easily.

Re: Immersion Blender?

Just please please PLEASE always unplug it before ever going near the blade! And I mean even detaching it apart!

A few years ago I badly cut 2 fingers & luckily only needed 2 stitches & didn't lose my nail or more!
