Add 1⁄4 teaspoon of the salt to the water. Bring to the boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium- high and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. When vegetables are tender, remove from heat. Drain and return to cooking pan. Add half-and-half and butter. Insert the hand blender into the cooked vegetables, making certain the protective guard is submerged in the vegetables.

Tips: Change the flavor by adding a few cloves of peeled fresh garlic or slices of fresh peeled ginger to the water when cooking. Make a heart-healthy version by substituting chicken or vegetable stock for the half-and-half, and extra virgin olive oil for the butter (do not add fresh ginger to this version).
