Why You Need a Blender in Your Kitchen and How to Buy the Right One
An important milestone in all our lives as adults is when we finally start setting up our own house after finishing studies and getting a job away from our parents. And the most important part of adulthood is feeding yourself and others who visit you, which requires setting up a basic kitchen and learning a few kitchen skills. Let me give you a tip so even if you have zero skills, you can still make delicious and quick dishes for yourself and impress others: Simply buy a kitchen blender.
Even if you don’t know anything about cooking, you can throw in a few ingredients in a blender and make smoothies, soups, dips and sauces. You can also make milkshakes, cold coffees and pancake batters easily with a kitchen blender. In this blog, we will discuss why you need a blender in your kitchen and how to buy one.
Buying the Right Blender
There are various blenders in the market that do all kinds of things and if you don’t want to get overwhelmed, buy your blender online. This way you can see the features and the recipes you can make with the blender, compare prices and utilize sales or coupons for them.
If you are at beginner level, you might think going for the cheapest options for example a portable blender is a great idea when buying a blender online, but invest a little more and go for something like a 4 speed diamond blender. You will get so many features and greater power to make recipes for soups, dips and sauces both cold or hot. Just by blending a few ingredients together you can look like a pro when you host a party or dinner for people.
If you buy a mid to high range blender online, they have larger capacity jars which are built with BPA-free plastics and sometimes glass. Consider the blender shape as well. For instance, the shape of the jar like in the KitchenAid diamond blender, the ridges in the jar form a part of a blending system. These blenders include high horsepower motors and stainless steel blades that can blend even gingers and frozen fruits and seeds and nuts to give a smooth result at a fast pace and last you a long time with minimal cleaning.
When buying blender online you can go for various features like pulse mode for staggered blending, ice crush to make cocktails and granitas, various speeds for no splash and better control of the consistency of the product you want. These are special features you won’t get in any basic blender.
Bonus tip
Since a blender is an integral piece of equipment in a kitchen, you should buy a good one that can last you a while. Go for a blender which is stylish or fits your kitchen’s theme so that it can enhance your countertop. My recommendation will be the KitchenAid Artisan power plus blender or any other blender in the KitchenAid line as they are top of the line in terms of their looks, built quality and performance. I hope my tips can give you an easy starting point for setting up your kitchen and show you do not need to do actual cooking or know knife skills to make delicious food and at least ease your transition into being an adult.
