A good immersion blender is an essential tool in your kitchen.

But I have an amazing (jar) blender already?

Congratulations! Get one anyways. Unless….

But I don’t make soup

You should really start making soup. Bonus points for using a strainer.

Which one should I get?

I’m doing some further research and testing, but Alton Brown says:

  • Variable Speed
  • Watts don’t equate to blending power
  • Detachable parts for easy cleaning
