6. Once the cooking time has finished,
check the consistency of the soup. You
can continue to use the pulse button at
the end of cooking to ensure your soup
is made to your desired consistency.
7. Unplug the Soup Maker and remove the
lid, being careful to avoid any steam that
it may omit. Using the handle, pour the
soup into bowls to serve.
Tips for getting the most out of your Soup
Maker:
•
Prepare as many of your ingredients as
possible in advance.
•
Add a little olive or vegetable oil and
water to the bottom of the jug before
adding ingredients that are high in starch
or sugar, to avoid them burning to the
bottom of the jug.
•
Once you’ve added all the ingredients to
the jug, stir with a wooden spoon before
fitting the lid and turning the soup maker
on.
•
Make a full batch of soup at a time and
freeze your leftovers to enjoy later in
the week. When freezing soup, leave it
to chill overnight in the fridge before
putting it into the freezer.
•
Layer softer, lighter ingredients like
lentils or chopped tomatoes on top of
heavier ingredients such as potato. This
stops the lighter ingredients from being
pressed down into the bottom of the jug
and the blades too much.
•
If your soup seems too thin, lower
the amount of liquid you are adding.
Reducing the liquid will give you thicker
soup.
•
Never fill the soup maker above the
maximum fill line and always make sure
it isn’t under the minimum fill line either.
The Tower Soup Maker is as easy to use
as a kettle, and in this instance it abides
by the same rules.
Healthy Options for Wholesome Soup:
•
Using vegetable stock as your liquid
addition gives the soup a great added
flavour.
•
Sauté onions and garlic in vegetable
oil for a healthier option rather than oil
before adding to your soup maker.
•
Certain vegetables increase in
antioxidant content when they’re
cooked. For a real health boost, make
soups that include these vegetables:
carrots, spinach, green and red peppers,
asparagus, broccoli and red cabbage.
•
For a boost to your immune system
include these ingredients in your healthy
soups: garlic, sweet potatoes, tomatoes
and kale.
•
Include potato to bulk up a soup, add
some energizing carbs and to fill you
up a little more this will also thicken the
soup naturally.
•
Garnishing with fresh basil, which is
thought to ease stress and help with
problem skin.
•
For low fat soups, replace crème fraîche
or soured cream with low fat fromage
frais
•
Always remember to season your soup
with salt and pepper after cooking.
