[@CitiesForTheFuture2030]

I have soup every day - great way to pack in all your veggie nutrients in one yummy bowl. And they are cost effective too. Carrot, pumpkin & sweet potato is a recent favourite, but I also make minestrone, curried butternut & sweet potato and veggie soup. Cauliflower & broccoli are a bit expensive at the moment, but I've seen some really nice recipes using these ingredients. You can use the veggie cuttings to make the broth for the soup (just clean them well beforehand) eg onion skins, carrot tops, potato skins, celery stalks etc. Soup can be enjoyed cold, warm or hot - perhaps with flatbread, a cheese dipper, a slice of toast or a roll. I make a large batch, freeze some and keep the rest in the fridge for a quick & easy meal (lasts about 3 days in the fridge). I make my soup in the microwave to keep electricity costs down.

[@davesamatvillagecabs8658]

I liked and learnt more from this more than all the official vids I checked out,, Thank you for being so genuine in your delivery.. I'm off to try my own now.

[@Anon.5216]

Brilliant review. Just bought one. Using it today with ur soup recipe! Fellow Christian here. Thank u for praying beforehand and putting God first.

[@audi4581]

Great video on how to use a soup maker for someone new to the idea of soup making. Also very informative and down to earth review on the Aldi soup maker. Great video!

[@FoodTech101]

As soon as I get a chance I'm going to do a range of different super simples soup recipes as well. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

[@vjpearce]

The only disappointment I had with my soup maker, is not getting one sooner. I can easily make soup for lunch, while I'm getting ready for work. Curried cauliflower and coconut soup is one of my favs to make.

[@SweetMelin213]

I love that you said grace before eating. Great review!

[@FoodTech101]

I may have prepared the food but God provided it. ;-)

[@majestically2008]

I was about to say the same thing. Am expecting my machine tomorrow!! 👍👍 Want to add some seasoned chicken to it, so will see. Maybe some lentils too!! Ooh the recipes in my mind are coming.......

[@gillianbc]

I've just made a really great roasted butternut and sweet potato soup... but, oh the mess! Food processor, two bowls, sieve, hand blender, spatulas, spoons etc. I think I need one of these. Nice to hear you saying grace before eating too.

[@FoodTech101]

I hear you. These soup makers are legit! You just throw whatever ingredients in you want and 21 minutes later, exactly, you have fully cooked and blended soup. It really is that easy.

[@gillianbc]

@@FoodTech101 You are right - I got one tonight. Within 30 mins of it arriving, I had the most amazing leek and potato soup. As good as I've had in any restaurant and much better than shop bought. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@Maranatha621]

Thanking the Lord for the food. Well done Sir! Thank you very much for your video. I've finally known how to use it. Wife bought it but have not been keen on looking at the manual. Lol. Would you make a video about some soup recipes then. 🤪

[@jacksonsmagic]

Great for British winter weather. Add stockpot for better taste. I have one plate chunky, then blend the second plate Smooth, they can taste different but always delicious!

[@FoodTech101]

For sure!

[@deegeraghty3421]

Brilliant video ! Thank you so much for showi g us how easy it is yo make great soup using a soup maker. Bought Tefal one just before lockdown but not used it yet. Now I will. Tefal one also has keep warm function after cooking (in case waiting for others to arrive) and a self-clean function. Self clean is great as its the only way to clean interior after eating soup. Making 1st soup in soup maker tonight !!

[@FoodTech101]

Brilliant! I've had mine a while now and I still can't believe how well they work. I think I'm going to do a few videos and the different kind of dishes you can make with the soup maker. If I remember, I'll give you a shout-out for inspiring me with the idea. Check out some of my other videos, you might find something else you like.

[@MsStormyluv]

You gave thanks first. Amen I had the same response when I first use my soup maker. The soup is incredibly good for the ingredients that put in it.

[@ellydavis2066]

I've been investigating getting one of these but it does seem like they're a saucepan combined with a food blender which is how I make my soup now, unless I'm doing a chunky soup and then I don't blend it up.

My husband usually does ours but he's out today so thanks for talking me through it, good man. X

[@maximokit]

Aww so adorable how excited you are about soup! 😍

[@FoodTech101]

lol. I know what you mean but it's just so easy and works sooo well. I like when products really live up to your expectation. And I don't get a dome for saying any of this.

[@joannesmith3991]

needs some black pepper in it as well , looks great and healthy no preservatives etc nice for the winter months or if you just fancy some soup i might buy 1 and what you dont eat you could freeze for those days when you fancy some more

[@ClaireW-HippyHobbit]

Evidently you can blend without heat to make smoothies or hummas with it also. Have you used it for blending to make smoothies and hummas? How was it, if so? I got the silvercrest Lidl version of this. Blends really well and crushes ice. But I'm not convinced for soup. Sticks to the bottom and harder to clean. . With Lidl version blades are in the bottom (like a nuitribullet) and you lift the jug out of the base ( jug quite heavy and base quite high) so a bit tricky when it's hot, rather than lift the blending stick out of the jug as in Aldi version. With blades in bottom also makes it more difficult to clean and it's soup. So you need to remove blades to clean the base. There is a pulse and two speeds for blending Also, no count down time on Lidl one so you've no idea how long is left. Aldi version. It's also a little cheaper. Lidl seems to be a blender that makes soup. This seems to be a soup maker that blends I'm now considering buying this instead

[@aaronwilson9465]

I have the asda soup maker. It's more or less identical to this with different branding. I've used it to make smoothies a few times! It works brilliantly. It has a pre-built smoothie/cold drink option for it so I just toss fruit and juice in and 5 minutes later I have smoothies.

[@gloriathomas6278]

Good video I'm about to get one from Amazon, but I did read somewhere it's best to add some water 'first' this stops vegetables sticking to bottom. Has anyone had this happen to them 😁

[@FoodTech101]

That's a good tip but in practice I've never actually had that happen to me. 😌

[@hopeplumb322]

Thanks to you, I bought this very soup maker today! It is brilliant. Thank you for a fantastic review.

I’d like to know if this device is still working, please. I bought a similar Morphy Richards soup maker and it broke after forth or fifth use. Is it that much better than a plain sauce and a stick blender?

[@FoodTech101]

Mine is still going very strong. Had it now about 4 years I think 🤔. Best kitchen appliance I ever purchased, bar none

I like roast or saulte my ingredients first as it gives a different flavour but I guess you still can add add it in

Don’t get Morphy Richards ones. They break very quickly....... it happened to mine and a lot of reviews I’ve read in shopping websites have said the same thing..... I didn’t know Aldi sold them! I’ll buy from them the next time they’re offered.

[@lienbijs1205]

No saute function, no keep warm function and no auto clean. For a little bit more you'll have a multi pressure cooker and you'll can use your more easy to clean hand blender to blend the soup.

[@FoodTech101]

No saute but it does keep soup warm for a couple hours. I like it because it just makes fully blanded soup without any effort or mess, so quickly ...and really well. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe and stay tuned as I plan to do a lot more product and food reviews this year.

[@lienbijs1205]

@@FoodTech101 Right now they have a great multi pressure cooker like croqpot for only 60 euro ( Lidl Netherlands) It can saute and pressure cook your soups beside cooking all other things. The only thing you have to do yourself is blending with your hand blender. This soup machine looks more complicated to clean than a hand blender, you can't put it in the dishwasher so overall you have more work with cleaning the soup machine than with making soup on the stove or a pressure cooker since you have to handwash it. This looks to me like a kitchen thing what is ending in the garage like a popcorn machine, pan cake machine, bread machine and so on. When did you use it for the last time? 😃

[@jeanwarburton3810]

Do you have a user manual for the Ambiano Soup Maker. I've purchased one but there's no manual. Just made some leek and potato and celery soup after watching your video. Thanks!

[@FoodTech101]

I think you found yourself a winner 🏆 😋 🍵,one other kitchen gadget to take a close look at are slow 🐢 cookers for fast eaters,they have come on leaps and bounds in the last few years with the introduction of digital control timers now becoming the norm and standard,it gives you total control on the food you are cooking,pop the ingredients in the morning before you go of to work,switch on and set the cooking time,and press to come home from work to a hot meal especially in the winter when it's cold and dark long days ❄❄❄⛄☁🌒,or load up the night before and switch on before you depart for work,they are handy kitchen item to have just like your soup maker,one other thing is make your soup and put it in a food flask for work,you will save yourself a small fortune 💰 💸💸in buying food from venders,the money 💰 saved will pay for your soup maker ten time's over especially in the winter months . 🍴🍲😋 👍

Can you make watery soup with this or does it have to be thick and creamy?

[@FoodTech101]

In essence, it is a type of pressure cooker that you can choose to blend or not blend the ingredients. Want it watery then 'don't' select blend. I've had mine a few years now and honestly, it's my favorite kitchen appliance. Every time I make soup it seems a little bit like I'm doing some kind of culinary magic.

[@dusk1234567890]

@@FoodTech101 ok. My soup maker only has chunky (whatever that means), medium, smooth, blend/juice and keep warm options. Which ones for watery soup?

[@Athena-iz3no]

I am just about to use mine for the first time but would like to ask you...how about chicken or any other meat? do you need to pre-cook or do you just throw that in too? if so, how do you prepare before putting in? thanks for sharing

[@FoodTech101]

That's a great question. To be honest I've never tried cookig meat in it. My gues is that because of the high pressure cooking environment it should be able to cook meat fine. If it can cook hard root vegetables like sweet potato all the way through, which it can, then it should be able to easily handle meat. Nevertheless give it a try and let us know how it does. Thanks for taing the time to comment.
