Can you put boiling soup in a Vitamix? ›

Hot Soups. The friction of our blades can make steaming-hot soup in under 10 minutes, right in the container; chilled soups take even less time. Make each blend your own by playing with add-ins like ramen noodles, tortellini, or kefir.

Choose a low-sodium broth (vegetable, chicken and beef are easily found at the market). You can also make your own stock; as a time saver, make a double batch and freeze half for later. For a creamier soup, use starchy veggies to get the consistency you love.

Hot soup (or other hot liquids, for that matter) will steam and expand in the blender, which can push the top off and cause a mess and burn hazard. When pureeing hot soup, do it in batches. Fill the blender 1/3 to 1/2 full, remove or loosen the center cap from the lid of the blender.

It may sound a bit strange and unusual for some, but vinegar is a common ingredient in some soup recipes, and there is a good reason for it.

It is generally recommended to let the soup cool down slightly before using the immersion blender. This is to minimize the risk of any accidental splattering or burning yourself. However, if you need to blend the soup while it's still hot, ensure that the pot is deep enough to prevent any hot liquid from splashing out.

In order to have piping hot soup in a short amount of time, it's essential to be prepared. Your stock or water must be boiling when added to the soup maker - otherwise you are adding on unnecessary time to the process.
