can I use a hand blender in this pot?

by admin January 26th, 2010. Filed under: cuisinart blender.

Hello I am wondering if I can use a hand blender: http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CSB-76BC-SmartStick-200-Watt-Immersion/dp/B000EGA6QI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1264208056&sr=1-1

in this kind of a enameled iron cast oven: http://www.amazon.com/Creuset-Enameled-Cast-Iron-2-Quart-French/dp/B00004SBH4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1264208252&sr=1-1

or will it damage the pot?? I am thinking of blending soup right in the pot.
thanks

You can use it – no problem at all. That type of hand blender won’t harm the pot. It has two little feet on the bottom to keep the blades from doing anything to any kind of non-stick coating a pot might have. I’ve done it many times.

    Absolutely yes, you can use it in the pot. That is what they are made for. I have done it many times.

    The "feet" of my hand blender (and the one you’ve selected) are solid metal, whatever blade you have in it will not touch the bottom of the pot but the bare metal feet are going to be banging up and down on the enamel and those pots recommend the use of nylon utensils, so unless you’re going to custom fit little enamel tips it will not be an ideal pairing and the enamel will Eventually chip. I’d go with a stainless pot to be dedicated to using the hand blender in.
    something like this:

    with 4 different blades, a whisk attachment and food processor attachment it’s very versatile, I’m very pleased with it.
