Also called hand or stick blenders, immersion blenders are versatile and compact tools used to blend, puree, and mix ingredients directly in the pot, bowl, or pitcher. Their handheld design makes it easy to blend soups, sauces, smoothies, and more without the need for extra containers. Featuring a motorized handle and detachable blades, they are perfect for quick, small-scale tasks. Some models come with additional attachments, like whisks or choppers, for added versatility. Their convenience and portability make them a practical choice for a variety of everyday kitchen needs.
