You heard right, don't adjust your computer monitor. You can make creamy as well as amazing fine dining quality hot soup in a mixer. Needless to say, not any type of blender is going to do. You need what I consider one of the worlds best juicers for you to do it. Mainly, the Vitamix 5200. This machine may look like an everyday kitchen appliance but I assure you it's not. The custom designed Swedish built motor moves the blades at 240 MPH which literally heats food via friction. This sounds crazy but it really is true.
Ingredients
1 carrot
1 celery stick
1 slice of green cabbage
1 slice of red pepper (with seeds)
1/2 zucchini
1/2 slice of yellow squash
4 large Roma tomatoes
1 clove of garlic
2 leaves of cilantro
1 slice of jalapeno pepper
salt to taste
2-3 shakes of "Blend It Up" spice mix
1 chicken bullion cube
1 inch cube of cheddar cheese
Introduce the ingredients after which you'll add normal water to the 3 cup fill line of the Vitamix pot. Cover tight and set variable speed to minimal. Start at adjustable speed 1 after which change the switch to 10 (you may change from 1-10 quickly, within 3-5 seconds of flipping the device on). Change the switch to high and mix for 4-5 min's until water vapor is pouring out from the top of the container. When everything's good and hot turn back to variable speed low and then flip the dial down again to 1. Add black beans, corn and chicken to give the soup texture. You'll want to warm these first so your soup stays hot. Be aware, your Vitamix will , no doubt chop the chicken breast right in the soup with variable speed one so do not leave it on too long or your soup will lose its mass. For those who are feeling especially heroic you can add tortilla chips right before serving for extra taste. Once again, try not to chop excessively.
There you have it! You have now created a delectable hot soup utilizing a Vitamix, one of the worlds best juicers. I find this soup to be particularly appetizing and quick to produce. Furthermore the soup is fresh and contains zero preservative chemicals as you created it from scratch using 100 % natural ingredients. Personally I was amazed that I was able to make a deliciously flavorful restaurant-grade soup at home. It simply goes to show what you are able accomplish aided by the right equipment. Wish someone would have told me this little technique before. You can forget about salty processed Campbell's or Progresso soups for me and my family. Best of all, I used to have hypertension during my mid 30's, even though I was not tremendously over weight (5'`10" 174lbs). Now at 41 my high blood pressure is long gone. Goes to show you how essential nutrition is.
You will find a incredible satisfaction to cooking a wholesome dish from scratch. Being able to see everything that is going into it and know that it's good is not only good for your body, but good for the mind too. Of the many mixers and blenders I own, the Vita-Mix is definitely the one I get probably the most use out of. Its versatility, high capacity sixty four oz bucket, and easy clean-up allow it to be by far the most simple and useful tool inside my kitchen. It is a little pricey however after you take the plunge and see exactly how effortless it really is to make rich, nutritious, enjoyable meals, you will certainly be pleased you have one and feel sorry for people who don't.
