The Things You Can Do With a High Speed Blender

A high-speed blender differs from a regular blender in that the blades are much sharper, allowing for it to handle harder ingredients to break up. The things you can put in a high-speed blender could easily break a regular blender, which is why people opt for it. It also does a similar job that a food processor can do. If you already have one or are looking to buy one and want to make the most of it, check out these ideas.

Cornmeal

Making your own cornmeal is not only fun, but ensures that it is fresh. Just pour as many kernels as you want into the blender, start low but quickly go up to a high speed and run for about 1 minute to get the perfect cornmeal. Make spoon bread, corn bread, polenta, and more!

Whipped Cream

Instead of getting a sore arm from whisking hard, make your whipped cream in the blender! Just pour all the ingredients and blend it on high until soft peaks form, and you’re ready to dollop it on cakes, ice cream, or pies!

Soup

The fun thing about high-speed blenders is that since they work at such a high level, they also slightly heat your food. So, if you through in vegetables and broth and let it work for a couple of minutes you can actually make soup without ever having to touch a stove!
