How Would You Benefit From The Best Blender

By Luis Gambini


Cooking is my passion. It is doubtless that the adrenalin rush that it gives me is unlike anything else. With a great number of kitchen tools to choose from, my favorite is my blender.


Which is the Best Blender For Your Budget?


Blenders come in a great variety of styles and sizes, and can be made of polycarbonate, metal, glass or a combination of two or all of the items. It is popularly used to turn fruits and vegetables into puree which what I use it primarily for. Other uses of blenders are crushing ice, emulsification of mixtures, changing semi-solid food into thick mixture or minute particles, mixing and dissolving solid as well as liquid ingredients, and much more.


There are three main categories of blenders that you would see at any stores. When coming up with delicate recipes, hand-powered blenders is your best bet. It is very simple to use allowing you to come up with the desired texture and consistency as indicated in the recipe that you are creating. It would definitely provide you with value for your money as well as ease of use.

One blender type that is hand-held and easy-to-use is the immersion blender. Using this type of blender is for small recipes. What is usually done is turning fruits into puree, for example, by submerging the stick directly into the container.
What you commonly see in households is what is usually known as the base and pitcher blenders. This style has various ways to blend your ingredients by opting to choose any of the numerous buttons to crush, blend and more. It can accommodate more amount of food to be combined and are a lot more powerful in contrast to to the other blender types. More complex tasks can be handled by this kind of appliance. The base of the blender is where the machine is. The pitcher-like top which is removable has the blades that are moved by the base.

When buying blenders, you may need to consider some tips before you decide to do so.
1) Durability and Power - Brands can indicate how durable a blender is. Although affected by how you use the blender, power is also a major factor in buying a blender. You want to find a blender that would outlive its usefulness and does the job with ease and efficiency.
2) Usefulness - Based on your usual way of handling the blender, it is best to find the blender that is most versatile and most functional to optimize without you having to exert much effort.
3) Budget - Blenders range from $30 to several hundreds. Go for something that fits your budget since efficient kitchen items need not be pricey.
Other factors that can affect your choice could include if the blender appeals to you aesthetically, how handy the blender is or how much is its capacity at one time. Basically, the blender you would be getting will still depend on your preferences.
