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.
You can cook homemade soups from start to finish or blend up your favorite smoothie with this innovation exclusively by Cuisinart. The built in nonstick heater plate provides the perfect surface to sauté ingredients, simmer or boil soups, and with a touch of a button blend it all to a perfect consistency. Crush ice and blend everything from smoothies to frozen cocktails. Cuisinart’s soup makers are like regular blenders – with a heating function! This means they can do everything a well-built regular blender can, whether it’s whipping up smoothies or crushing ice – plus more. From vegetable soups to spicy sauces, hot dishes are cooked and blended to perfection with Cuisinart cook-and-blend soup makers’ razor-sharp blades and built-in heating element.
Durability
Really it’s hard to rate this because it hasn’t gotten any more use out of me since it is so bad. The Cuisinart SSB1U Soup Maker will brown and sweat vegetables, boil liquids and simmer soups, allowing you to prepare perfect soups and sauces all in one unit, saving time and washing up. Making a soup is as simple as browning the vegetables in the blender, adding the stock and whizzing it up.
The first thing you must ask yourself is whether or not you should get a soup maker, before you even start to consider which soup maker brand/product would suit you. The Soup Maker and Blender is as sleek an appliance as I’ve seen. With its glistening charcoal finish and easy-to-read bright red LED displays, it’s like something out of the dashboard of a Bentley. Bring a state-of-the-art soup maker into the equation, and that changes everything. Cleaning is easy, requiring a drop of detergent and warm water, then running through a two-minute simmer followed by a one-minute blend. Overall, it’s a premium device with some useful functions, though admittedly comes at a greater cost.
Turning the heat up to high and sealing the lid with the measuring cup, we left the mixture to cook. We then used this curry paste in cuisinart pots and pans set the Thai chicken & red chilli soup. The smooth setting takes just 23 minutes, and my butternut squash and orange soup was delicious.
