Expert Tips

Here's our top tips for the perfect creamy mushroom soup made in the Thermomix!

Mushrooms - you can use white or brown mushrooms (or a combination).
Vegetarian Option - use vegetable stock liquid in place of the chicken stock liquid.
Soup Consistency - for a chunkier soup, blend by pressing Turbo until the soup has reached your desired consistency.
Do NOT exceed the MAX line - at no stage should you exceed the MAX line in the Thermomix machine. This is particularly important with the TM31 as the bowl is smaller than the TM5 and TM6. If you are close to the MAX line, use less chicken stock liquid.
MC OFF - for safety reasons, it's important to remove the measuring cup (MC) when cooking at very high temperatures. To avoid splatters, place the splatter guard or simmering basket over the top of the lid instead.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheat frozen soup in a pot on the stovetop or in the microwave.
Reheat defrosted soup in the microwave, on the stovetop or in the Thermomix.
Allow the soup to cool completely in the fridge and then freeze for up to 3 months.

FAQs

What does MC off mean?

The MC refers to the measuring cup that sits in the hole of the Thermomix lid. When cooking at high temperatures, it's important for safety reasons to remove the MC so that the steam can escape.

What is the splatter guard?

The splatter guard is a plastic lid with holes that sits in place on top of the Thermomix lid. This stops splatters from escaping. If you don't have a splatter guard (earlier models do not), then you can simply place the simmering basket over the hole in the lid instead.
