Have you tried using this for soup? If so, how did it do? thank you!

I haven't because I don't think it's deep enough to really cook soup (except for perhaps a very fast-cooking type of soup.) The flavors and ingredients wouldn't really meld, IMO. Also, although the lid seems very secure and tight, I'm not sure it would seal in the cooking ingredients well enough to do the slow-cook thing for several hours without losing too much liquid.

We use this for soup all the time. I just use a laddle to serve it straight from the skillet. Cooks it fast and efficient. All can be done in one pot.

I haven't and would not use it for soup. In my opinion, it's not deep enough to cover vegetables and or meat with broth. I always use my stock pot for soups.

No, I wouldn't consider it safe to make soup in this pan as it is heavy, and the depth is only 3 inches deep. It would be very risky to try to pour the soup into another container without it splashing & causing a burn.A much safer thing to do for soup is to make it in a slow cooker (crock pot), or in a kettle large enough on the stove. For either method, use a large, long-handled ladle to remove the soup.Hope this helps.

The finished product is very fine and, using the filter,, should be OK.The soup does come out very hot so watch the temperature !

it does get a little warm, not sure whether it heats up soup to soup temperature, though!

Oh yes. It is great for soup vegetables. Just a pulse or two. I chop dates with nuts and make a great crust for fruit pies etc. There are several blades for slices that I haven't used yet. This is not your mother's food processor!!! Much better.

I have not tried it for soup. I think my is set at about 190 now, but I think it can be set higher. I have been very happy with this one.

We have never tried them in soup. My mom made "spaghetti" with the zucchini and it was delicious (for a veggie). I still prefer pasta! LOL.

It works great. You can pretty much make anything in liquid form from soup to soymilk. I will highly recommended to anyone who wants healthy eating.

I have only used it for ice cream thus far. It is not insulated, so it would not keep the soup warm for a prolonged period of time. Also, it will not protect your hands very well from the heat of the soup inside.

I have this blender and it works amazing. Just use a little water or use a push stick like the vitamax. It fits with the waring, If you want it to blend a little faster. Those are common rules everyone knows when blending. And any blender makes hot soup if you leave it on long enough haha. No seriously just make a regular soup then heat it up on the stove.

I never made chili or chicken soup. I can tell you that I made a lamb stew and had 2 large legs of lamb, 5 yams, 5 potatoes, 3 Turnips all cut in quarters, plus carrots, tomatoes and quartered onion. Fed 10 people and had left overs. The pot is great. Any larger and it would not fit on my stove because of the exhaust fan over the stove. It is great for large quantities. My guess is that if there are 4 cups to a quart, you would get 80 cups of soup. That is a guess though.

I haven't tried it and just thought about it yesterday (made a big pot of soup). I think it would be great. They have 2 tiny holes in the top to let steam out. It's also the only container that keeps my ice cream from getting freezer burn. It's great quality as well.

There are some restaurants that do serve this type of soup in a bread bowl. Personally I've never tried to do so but don't see why it wouldn't work. Do try substituting a cup of half & half for one cup of water (added at the end of the boiling & simmering) to make a thicker soup. Good luck

Yes. I've had no trouble with this. I love this blender; it's great for making soups.

I actually do use it for soup. Of course you have to be careful, like opening a hot radiator.

I haven't tried it myself yet (only smoothies and baking so far) but I think it would work with strong-flavored soups with a creamy base (to cover up the texture. I would whisk it in to some milk or broth first, too, to avoid clumps.

It would depend upon the diameter of your pan, but I do not think this would work unless you used a very wide pan and made your soup more shallow.

Hi :)I bought this specifically to steam 1-2 person servings of veggies and it's fantastic. Yeah, you could totally warm-up or make soup in the bottom pot, and not use the top/steaming basket at all. I'm not sure if it's non-stick surface so maybe be careful with creamy soups that could burn, stick, and turn into a super mess & headache to clean afterwards. Maybe broth based soups? Just keep in mind this puppy is only 1 quart so it's pretty tiny. If you're making soup for 1 person it's probably perfect but you've got limited space. Last thing, be careful the handles get super hot. Use with care and don't burn yourself!I hope this helps a little with your purchase InvisibleCloak -Best, Katherina Hi :)I bought this specifically to steam 1-2 person servings of veggies and it's fantastic.
