Stove top Stock
A basic stock recipe to cook on the hob.
Vegetable Stock:
3 finely chopped carrots
3 chopped celery
3 chopped leeks
1 diced onion
1 bay leaf
2 sprig of parsley
1 tsp. dried thyme
1. Put all the ingredients into a stock pot and
cover with enough water to easily stir them
in. The more water you add, the lighter the
flavour of the stock.
2. Set the stock pot on a medium to high
heat and bring to just under a boil before
reducing the heat to medium low and
allowing the stock to simmer.
3. Let the stock cook for around an hour,
stirring intermittently to circulate the
vegetables.
4. Take the stock off the heat and strain to
remove the pieces of veg.
5. Refrigerate and allow cool before splitting
into portions and then freezing immediately.
6. Next time you want to make soup with
vegetable stock in your Tower Soup Maker,
simply take a portion of your stock out of
the freezer and defrost before adding to
your Soup Maker along with the rest of your
ingredients, for the ultimate in home-made
comfort cooking.
4 TROUBLE SHOOTING & FAQ’S
Questions
Answers
Can I use uncooked
meat in the soup
maker?
No. You need to first cook the meat separately before transferring it to the
soup maker with the rest of your ingredients. Meats such as lamb will need
browning before adding to the ingredients.
What is the capacity
of the soup maker?
The Tower Soup Maker has a capacity of 1.6 Litres. Always ensure
ingredients and liquids do not exceed the maximum fill line marked on the
glass jug.
Can I change the
times on the settings
of the chunky and
smooth functions?
No, the times for the chunky and smooth soup functions are pre-set and
will be correct for the soups included in the included recipe book. If the end
result is not to your preferred consistency, use the pulse function.
Can I make cold
soups in the soup
maker?
Yes, you can make cold soups and gazpacho in the Tower Soup Maker
using the pulse function. There are two recipes for cold soups in the
included recipe book. For other recipes, you may want to first cook the
soup using either the chunky or smooth settings, and then allow to cool.
Can I remove the lid
during cooking?
If you remove the lid during cooking, the soup maker will automatically
power off. You would then need to turn the soup maker back on and reset
the function.
Why is my soup
maker overflowing?
The water may be filled above the maximum fill line. Ensure you take note
of the maximum fill line before using.
