What is a Stick Blender?
A stick blender is a hand blender which is designed to be inserted into the food being blended. The shape is roughly sticklike, which explains the common name. Stick blenders can be highly useful around the kitchen for a variety of applications, especially when they come with a range of attachments. Most kitchen supply stores carry stick blenders, which may also be called immersion or hand blenders. Cooks can also order stick blenders directly from manufacturers, if they have difficulty finding a good supplier in their area.
