Convenient Electric Soup Makers US

Samuel J Tan Autumn Essentials, Home & Kitchen, Kitchen, Soup Makers 0

Soups are one of those universally comforting foods, regardless of country or origin. Hearty, heart-warming broth, filled with an assortment of vegetables and meats, cross borders and boundaries.

Typically the strength and quality of a soup relies on the base stock from which it is made and this is often the most time consuming step of making soup or broth. Of course modern conveniences allow for wonderful time savers in the form of stock cubes and pre-packaged stock.

While not difficult to cook or make, the general making of soup does require care and attention to ensure that it’s ingredients are sufficiently cooked prior to stock being added and consistent stirring ensures that it’s contents do not stick to the bottom of the pan. This is where the electric soup makers are a great addition to any kitchen.

The convenience and simplicity of chucking all the required ingredients in to one pot and leaving it to make your soup ready from scratch in a matter of minutes allows you time to focus on other more important more demanding needs of the day.

7. Vitamix E310 Explorian Blender 48oz

Best known for its blenders, the Vitamin E310 Explorian is a low profile unit with a jug capacity of 48oz. Legendary blending with powerful motor and sharp steel blades aside, the E310 has 10 speed settings for every texture and ingredients. A separate pulse function lets you chop ingredients coarsely when added to smooth purees for a hearty soup. However, you won’t find any heating elements here as the heat is generated from those ultra fast and sharp blades. The friction from the blades are enough to generate heat to steam any ingredients in six minutes. Apart from soup, it can also be used to grind nuts and beans to make nut butter or grounds, make frozen threats like ice cream and fruit sorbet, mix batters and knead dough, make smoothies and juices, dips and spreads, dressing and sauces and baby food.

On top of just being able to control the speed settings, you can pick one of 5 presets for smoothie, frozen dessert, soup and puree recipes. And like the Experian, there is also a pulse function. While the jug can carry more ingredients and ultimately make more soup, it is still a low profile container for easy access. This also allows it to be stored under most kitchen cabinets. Again, there are no heating elements, just blades that goes so fast that the friction creates heat to steam the soup in under six minutes. Works like a dream every time.
