ElectricEmber+FollowYour Blender Can Do Way More Than Just SmoothiesUsing a blender properly changes everything in your kitchen routine. Make sure it's plugged in and your hands are completely dry - wet hands plus electricity equals bad news. Add your ingredients with some liquid at the bottom first. This helps everything move around instead of just sitting there like a chunky mess. Secure that lid tight! Nobody wants smoothie splattered on their ceiling (trust me on this one). Start blending and experiment with different speeds. Higher speeds work better for tougher ingredients. Never stick utensils in while it's running - turn it off first if you need to stir. Clean immediately after use. Wash the pitcher with soap and water, but never submerge the base. Seriously, once you master these basics, you can make everything from homemade hummus to cocktails to fresh breadcrumbs. #blendertips #kitchenhacks #homecooking #Food #Cooking00Share
