Cuisinart SSB1U Soup Maker Review

Add your ingredients and then replace the lid and measuring cup, ensuring the pouring spout on the jar is covered by the protrusion on the lid. N.B The maximum capacity when blending cold ingredients is 1.75L. Plug the unit into an appropriate mains socket.

For more about this, I suggest you read into the replies on this thread about warranty on the fantastic forum. Hi Jenica – Thanks cuisinart pots and pans set for your thoughtful, relevant, and balanced response. Sorry if my mention of the Cuisinart award came off sounding as a diss.

Increase the heat to medium, add the carrots and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the curry powder, salt and pepper and cook, using the stir function occasionally, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Increase the heat to high, add the stock and bring the soup to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, using the stir function occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Using a towel, hold the lid down and blend on the highest setting until the soup is silky in texture, 1 to 2 minutes.

While so far I have primarily used mine to make soups, you can make a lot of other types of foods with this handy device. Ahh, but it you look at the promo videos on YouTube, that soup looks so darn PRETTY as it boils in the glass! I think that’s a HUGE part of the appeal, plus, I think they are betting on the fact people are more familiar with glass jugs in blenders than stainless steel. To make it work in the US market, they need to make it look as much as possible like something people already know and buy into. It’s just so much easier to sell a known entity than a new concept. That’s one quality that is shared among Thermomix users… we are all embracing a concept that is not fully accepted by the greater number around us.

You can strip the process back to basics if you like but we feel the usefulness of this product has the potential to grow and grow as you become more familiar with it. As this machine involves more than simply pressing a button, we began with two of the provided recipes. First a curry paste, with the machine having no trouble grinding up ingredients for a smooth result using ‘level 3 blend’ (there are 1–4 speeds available). I’ll just say that they multiply the possibilities in ways that still surprise me nowadays after a lifetime of tmx cooking. About them and the steaming basket it can also be said that the materials used and their shape have also undergone a lot of investigation and development. A Tmx 31 bought in 2010 has a different varoma, blades and butterfly than one bought in 2006 .

Line the jug up with the base using the arrows, select the cooking duration and heating level, and you’re on the first step to soup. The blender is made of corrosion-resistant parts that are easy to clean. Before first use and after every use, clean each part thoroughly. Periodically check all parts before reassembly.
