The $200 cuisinart soup maker and Blender looks to streamline the entire soup process. Whether you’re a fan of bisque or borscht, French onion or oxtail, chowder or cock-a-leekie, there’s no denying the soothing feeling of a warm bowl of soup. When cooking time has finished, the blender will beep 4 times. To stir ingredients while cooking, use the Stir button.
The Cuisinart soup maker was one of the better-looking models I tried. A sleek and slender design, it doesn’t take up too much space and isn’t an ugly machine that should be stashed away when not in use. Whoever came up with the advertising slogan, “Soup is good food” was spot on. And good for you, too, especially when you make it yourself. Cuisinart is set to introduce (sorry U.S., looks like just U.K. for now) the Cuisinart Soup Maker in September 2009.
The instructions state that veg should be chopped into small centimetre cubes, before adding to the blender. Then you press one of two settings , and you’re good to go. Additionally, there are compote and smoothie functions for desserts and breakfasts. Some soup cuisinart griddler elite makers, generally the cheaper type, look a bit like kettles, while the pricier ones, usually made of glass, bear a closer resemblance to a traditional blender. Generally, the basic, metal models are fairly light, while a more high-tech device will be heavier.
Whether you are making chunky or smooth soups, jams, sauces for pasta, curries or tasty risottos you can complete every stage of your recipe in the Cuisinart Soup Maker. Watch your ingredients as they cook inside the robust glass jar, adjust the heat settings, add ingredients and stir as required to achieve perfect results.

The blender worked well with creamy soups, too. Will I be giving up my traditional method of cooking soups? I still enjoy a good pot of bubbling soup simmering on the stove.
The soup tasted great and was one of the easiest things I’ve ever made. Maria W.June 13th, 2013I love my cuisinart soup maker when it works. Bought two years ago, had to send it back twice for faulty mixing action, it kept slipping or stop altogether. Now it has started faulty heating and takes three times as long. I used to keep it on high for 9 mins, then the rest of 30 mins on medium. No matter what vegetable I used it was always ready after 30 minutes.
