Cuisinart SSB1U Soup Maker

Dump some cans of stuff together and simmer. But my husband got me this Cuisinart for Christmas because he thought the concept was awesome. So I smiled and said Thanks and had him put it on the counter. A couple of weeks later I felt like I should use it. None of the soups in the book it came with appealed to me.

They are enjoying the coastal lifestyle with their Tibetan Terrier, Rhythm. If you love cooking different types of fresh soup but hate mess and fuss, the Soup Maker is a great all-in-one solution that earns its place in your kitchen. There are three heating levels to choose from – simmer (up to 80 degrees C), low (up to 90 degrees C) and high (up to 110 degrees C), which is used to bring soup to the boil.

The high function is particularly impressive, with the boiling motion helping to agitate the soup’s ingredients. The Soup Maker itself stayed steady on the worktop, with a few streams of steam emerging from the lid. It’s also very quiet during operation, only beeping when the timer’s cuisinart griddler elite finished counting down. I notice that there is a LOT of baby food makers on the market that cost more than a soup maker and don’t produce as much food for your baby. We were with child again and this time we were looking for just a quick cheap one for mainly blending baby food with.

Your question will be answered by a store representative or other customers. We have no data (and thus no recommendations) for this price type. Overall, a no-nonsense, affordable device that doesn’t fail to deliver top results.

I followed the instructions and it felt like there were a lot of steps. But I really think it would have been easier to cook it on the stove. This would be a very good thing to have if you don’t have a stove.

Silicone bowls in which you can prepare food and then throw it in the oven to roast said food? But the Soup Maker is a shining example of a smart combination appliance. It’s easy to use and exceptionally versatile, too.

You can, cook, stir, simmer and blend in the one machine without the need for extra pots and pans and watch your ingredients as they cook inside the robust glass jar. You can adjust the heat settings, add ingredients and stir as required to achieve the texture you want. Above the display sits a dial for controlling blending, which gives four speed options and a pulse, as well as a separate button at the side to operate the machine’s stirring function.

Here, you can personalise temperature and time, to perfect whatever recipe you’ve chosen to make. My potato and leek soup came out a tad watery, thought not at all unpleasant. The first soup I made here was a traditional carrot and coriander.

Within about a 40 minute time frame (from start to finish), I had an incredibly flavorful and unbelievably silky smooth Spiced Carrot Soup that would be luscious enough to serve to company. It was garnished with crispy Prosciutto, a dollop of Greek Yogurt and some snipped cilantro. The Scotch broth was thoroughly cooked, including the pearl barley, after about half an hour. After a quick blitz on level 2 – levels 3 and 4 are deactivated if the contents are over 60 degrees C – the soup was consistently creamy but still retained some texture and bite.
