stick blender

Handheld soup blender

A stick blender is a handheld kitchen appliance with rotating blades at the end of a narrow shaft, used to blend or purée ingredients directly in a pot, bowl, or container.

Unlike countertop blenders, it comes to the food rather than requiring food to be transferred: I used the stick blender to smooth out the soup.

Also called an immersion blender or hand blender.
