[Sca-cooks] Immersion blenders

[kingstaste at mindspring.com]

Immersion blenders are really nice to puree a hot soup.  Transferring hot
liquid into a blender and then blending it without the steam forcing the top
up and causing a hot wet tornado in your kitchen can be tricky.  Make sure
you keep the immersion stick below the surface of the liquid to prevent
aforementioned tornado.
Congratulations on your in-laws figuring out what you'd like!

My wife's family does a "secret Santa" arrangement for gifts and my
Santa (One of my sister-in-laws) got me a Cuisinart "Smart Stick"
Hand Blender with Whisk and Chopper Attachment, Brushed Stainless
Series.

I believe we've talked about immersion blenders before, but I don't
remember the details. I did purchase a hand held mixer last year and
I bought a food processor before that. So, when are the best times to
use these other two kitchen tools and when is the best time to use
this new immersion blender? When would you want to use the whisk
attachment and when would you want to use just the basic blender?

Thanks,
    Stefan
