• If your soup seems too thin, lower the
amount of liquid you are adding. Reducing
the liquid will give you thicker soup.
• Never ll the soup maker above the
maximum ll line and always make sure it
isn’t under the minimum ll line either. The
Tower Soup Maker is as easy to use as a
kettle, and in this instance it abides by the
same rules.
• Do not use an excess amount of washing
up liquid when using the self-clean function.
A few drops will do.
HealthyOptionsforWholesomeSoup:
• Using vegetable stock as your liquid
addition gives the soup a great added
avour.
• Sauté onions and garlic in vegetable broth
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 in 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 lling you up more.
• Serving soup with hard boiled eggs is a
tasty way to add a kick of protein.
• Swap bacon and ham in potato soup
recipes for cauliower which is rich in bre
and full of vitamin nutrients. Sweet potatoes
add vitamin A.
• 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.
• When you’ve nished cooking your soup
and you’re getting ready to serve it, try
adding some fresh soups or a dollop
of fresh yoghurt or cream - the fresh
ingredients will really highlight the delicious
avours in the soup.
MakingStock:
Good quality stock can help give soup a
delicious, avourful taste. For some soups, you
may wish to omit stock or broth, and just use
water. For others, a stock cube thrown in with
the rest of the ingredients and topped up with
water will do. Making your own stock is nutritious
and economical.

mile with, we’ve got a great basic vegetable
stock recipe for you.
