Using the Slow Stir Function
n
The Soup Maker is equipped with a slow stir function which can be activated at any time in the cooking cycle.
n
To activate, press the ‘SLOW STIR’ button. The blades will automatically stir the ingredients for a maximum of
30 seconds. If you do not wish to stir for this long, press the ‘SLOW STIR’ button again and the blades will stop
turning.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure you allow a minimum of 2-3 minutes between each time you use the slow stir function.
n
The ‘Slow Stir’ button is designed to stir chopped base ingredients during sautéing and to stir your recipe once
liquid has been added. It is not designed to stir large chunks of meat or vegetables without liquid in the jar.
n
If you use the slow stir function with large chunks of meat or vegetables with no liquid in the jar you may find
that chunks of food become lodged beneath the blades. To dislodge, turn the Soup Maker off and unplug at the
mains. Remove the lid and gently dislodge with a non-metal utensil before restarting the cooking process.
n
The slow stir function is ideal if you want to maintain a chunky texture to your recipe.
n
The slow stir function uses an intelligent sensor to sense the load of the food/liquid inside the jar. The speed of
the stir will automatically adjust depending on the ingredients inside the jar. It is therefore normal to notice an
increase/decrease in the speed of the stir. There will be some noise when stirring as the blades turn. This normal.
