I found this video last night, and immediately ran out to get all the ingredients. The only thing that I changed up was that I used purple carrots and red cabbage so I could get more of the red color to the soup. And I couldn't find chili peppers so I used part of a jalapeno. Lol. I'm eating it at the moment, and it is so delicious.
Wow, I'm impressed. I laughed when you were just chucking all sorts of stuff in the blender, "keep the stems and leaves etc"; it reminded me of Doc at the end of back to the future when he's chucking stuff into the "Mr. Fusion Home Energy Reactor"...
I've just made this soup, and it's absolutely gorgeous! Unbelievably quick and simple! I didn't have a spring onion so I substituted with a white onion, I didn't have any fresh hot peppers so I substituted with chilli fakes, and no cabbage so I used lettuce, but the recipe still turned out amazing! Thank you so much for sharing!
I used my vitamix for the first time today. Made kale,banana smoothie with almond milk and flax seeds. Good stuff. It's a very powerful machine. I'm about to make tomato soup now :)
Please keep making raw soup recipes. I've been using the vitamix for 8 yrs & every night Ive make a raw soup in it. Leafy green based soups are more difficult to enjoy for most people - you have to find the right balance of ingredients. Maybe some of the green soups would be great to show on your channel?
Hi holy living That is wonderful to hear :) and thank you for your feedback - we really appreciate it. We do have more recipes on our website: www.rawblend.com.au if you want to check them out. Have a great day and Happy Blending.
Hi Derek Doucette, Please note that the Vitamix Heats the soup through friction heat due to the speed of the blades and not a cooking element. You can have complete control over what temperature you "cook" your soup at. To qualify as a raw food you want to make sure you don’t heat it above 110-118 degrees F (43-47 degrees C), because above that temperature you start destroying the nutrients and enzymes of the food. You can use a thermometer to double check. I hope this helps!
I'd say a lot less time than it takes to go to the drive through. From the moment you decide "I want a nice hot soup", the soup will be done before you would even get to the drive through. If you have to put extra clothes on, you might not even get to your car before the soup is done.
Hi Steph, To make a hot soup, we leave the Vitamix running for roughly 4-6 minutes. When making a smoothie, the Vitamix only runs for about 60-90 seconds and we like to put ice in our smoothies so its icy cold! I hope this helps!
Hey Tommy, I got my vitamix and I love it. We tried the brocoli soup, I loved it, (my son didn't, but he likes eating brocoli straight up). Can I make a request that you make a lentil soup using the vitamix? I was thinking just straight up lentils with some form of milk? Thank you for all your videos. Ilove them!
Your accent is beautiful but so strong, many of the ingredients you said I had no idea what you were speaking of until I saw the food. In American the word Basil is pronounced as "Bay- sil", not bahh-cill. There were others but that really leaped out! 😄 Brook in Indiana, USA
Haha thanks Brook! Yes crazy how many small differences there are between the US and Australia even though we both speak English. Capsicum and Bell Pepper, Coriander and Cilantro, Spring Onion and Scallions just to name a few. Thanks for watching :)
My wife and I have been making this recipe of yours for years in our vitamix! We often refer back to this video to refresh our memory on the ingredients. Figured I’d drop a comment to say thank you! Also just saw you’re still posting recipes so we will check out your other videos too👍🏻
Hi Scott, thanks for watching and letting me know, it's always nice to hear positive feedback :) This recipe is one my all time favourite Vitamix soup recipes. You can find our complete recipe database here: www.rawblend.com.au/our-recipes/ Happy Blending!
Hi there, I use the Red Cayenne Chilli's. They're just common chillis - not too spicy, so I'm sure you could use your favourite chilli, and just adjust the amount according to how spicy you want it. Thanks for watching!
Hi Linette,We use nuts to make the soup creamy. We've made a few using shredded coconut instead or you could try avocado? Thanks for watching and happy blending!
Yummy recipe thank you look forward to watching more of your soup making, I did end up making it with vegetable broth instead of water as I had some to use up , was very good!
"just the way mother nature intended it to be". yup, mother nature intended you to whip up a bunch vegetables in a 450 dollar blender. hahaha. but seriously...that soup looks amazing and i now want this blender NOW. why does it have to be so expensive :(
Hi Andrew, At the end of the day, all heat will destroy enzymes. When you make soup with a Vitamix, rather than boiling the food, we are just heating it up with friction heat. Many Raw Foodies will leave it running for around 4 minutes so it is roughly at 40 degrees. It is only at 46 degrees when the enzymes begin to be destroyed. I hope this helps Andrew. Have a good day!
Hey David! Thank you so much for your kind words and thank you for watching! You could use Almonds or Peanuts however, it won't be as creamy. If you're going to use almonds or peanuts maybe cut down the liquid component or try adding some white beans in there :) Happy Blending!
My vitamix 5300 started shaking at speed 2. When i brought it down to 1 even then it kept shaking- I made it run for a minute and it shut off. After an hour, when it switched on again th same thing happened. Any idea what's wrong or so I have a piece of junk?
Thank you for your comment Jaya, you need to have your machine on HIGH speed when doing soups. It will jump when on the low variable. Make sure you get it up onto the HIGH speed as soon as possible and use your tamper effectively. Thank you for watching and happy blending.
hi Tommy. Congratulations for your shows. Really like vivamix and raw blend. But has a question. When you do a hot soup. What is it's temperature after it's 5 minute? Thank you.
mark di paolo it can vary depending on what temperature your liquid is and also what temperature the ingredients are when you add them. The soup will warm up roughly 10 degrees Celsius every minute. Thanks for watching and happy blending!
Pretty much! Some days when you're time poor it doesn't mean you have to resort to fast food! This is a quick and easy way to get a tasty meal and loads of nutrition! Thanks for watching and have an amazing day!
Wow! I just got my Vitamix today and just watched your video. Ran to store for ingredients and as I type this, I am enjoying the best soup I have ever had. My five year old daughter loves it too. Yay! Thank you. TRULY RAWMAZING PRESENTATION AND RECIPE!
Hi, thanks for the video. I love my Vitamix. You can use Kitchen Basics (or any of the other prepared stocks) unsalted vegetable stock in place of the water and stock cube. No added sodium. Flavorful without added sodium (may have to salt to taste after that).
Wow I'm so glad I found you and your wonderful recipes. Any chance I can substitute cashew with almonds? Or what other nut would you suggest? Thanks alot!! I'm so excited to try your recipes
Almonds would work but it won't be as creamy. Claire in the office loves to substitute the cashews with White Beans like Cannellini :) A lot less fat and great for those with any nut intolerance.
I've had a vitamix for over 7 years. We purchased ours when they were 700 dollars, but I was suffering from terrible Lyme and eating raw was an option that helped my body feel much better. While it is simply the best blender we ever owned and never had any issues with it - it just doesn't make good soups. Please be aware. Sure, it pulverizes the ingredients, but what you are left with is veggies with so much AIR whipped in it is has a "foamy" consistency. Not creamy, not smooth and rich and thick. Foamy...like you are eating dish soap suds, but with flavor. We tried 2-3 different kinds and it just didn't pass. Margaritas, marinades, milkshakes, smoothies, even different fruit and veggie drinks are okay, but if you really want this for soup, please be AWARE it will give you froth not broth!
Hi Miss Melpa, thank you for your comment and sorry to hear you are having issues when making soups. Are you following the Vitamix recipes specifically? You will end up with a lot of froth if you are missing ingredients like nuts or anything that will thicken it up. We haven't had any issues with frothiness when using ingredients like this. If you are not into eating nuts you can always use white beans or butter beans and also cut down on the liquid you are adding. Too many liquid based ingredients with cause it to Froth. Thanks for watching and happy blending!
Hi Rtbeile, You could substitute cooked rice, milk or cream instead of cashews. In relation in what's suitable for your baby, its best to speak to a dietician or nutritionist. I hope this helps!
Hi Gloupek9, The Vitamix will heat roughly 10 degrees every minute, so if you wanted to preserve all of the enzymes, you could leave it running for up to 4 minutes without destroying any of the nutrients. You can always use a thermometer to double check. I hope this helps!
The motor underneath lets off a slight smell and it's a little loud th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCKuMxLnvr6fJd_M4SE-n7trcGj3zEUHq but considering it's size and how hard it works to do the job, it's sort of expected. I assume the smell will go away over time. Overall, I love this cute little blender. The extra cups and lids are great too!
Hi autumn jasmyn I think the Vitamix is cheap for what it does. I would pay 5 times the price knowing the impact it has had on my health and wellness. No other blender brand compares to Vitamix as far as durability and the quality of the components used. Manufactured in the USA of over 90 years.
Hi Tommy, I am thinking of purchasing the Vitamix S30, will I be able to make a raw hot soup with this smaller model the same way? Do you have reviews on smaller models of the Vitamixers?
+Alisa Antonelli Thank you for your comment. You can certainly make hot soups in the Vitamix S30 however it will be done in smaller quantities. It certainly won't be able to handle to same amount as the TNC 5200. It comes with an amazing cookbook with many soup ideas. Thank you for watching and happy blending !
Hmmm, they don't have that model at Target, which is where I'm getting my unit. I am going for a certified reconditioned model then with the 64 oz. pitcher. I do hope that I can get a smaller pitcher as an additional accessory. I'm following you - I'm new to this entirely and haven't a clue on where to begin. Thank you for the quick response!
Hi Claire! There are two cookbooks on the side. "Fresh - The Ultimate Live-Food Cookbook (Victoria Boutenko)" and "12 Steps to Raw Food - Revised Edition (Victoria Boutenko)" Glad you like the recipe!
Don't you think that this is false advertising? You are advertising that this is a ready to eat hot soup. But, the vegetables are not cooked and the water is hot. I would not want to eat a soup that was not cooked unless it was a fruit soup served in the summer time.
No one is stopping you from boiling your soup until it's dead without much of nutrients and live enzymes, you even save $450 so you can afford to buy more junk foods.
Hi Cassandra Harris, 12 Steps to Raw Foods has some really healthy soup recipes amongst some other fantastic raw food recipes. It's a great addition to your book collection. I hope this helps!
Hi Elli, they're always best eaten fresh but depending on the ingredients used, a vegetable soup should last about 3-4 days stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Thanks for watching and happy blending!
I tried celery, tomatoes, garlic, zucchinis, salt, pepper, sugar, mixed salad, and it tasted awful. Probably did something wrong or not yet used to the taste yet...
Hi Steven, creating your own soup recipes with Vitamix can be challenging at times. Always remember that it is different to cooking on the stove at home, as we are not boiling the ingredients and destroying the enzymes. Tiny bits of flavor will go a long way. Raw celery has a very strong taste so I would recommend less celery. Also make sure you go easy on the garlic (no more than 1 clove). Forget the sugar and mixed salad as this would add an awful taste. If you want to sweeten it try adding 1/4 of an apple. Also try using some sort of stock (liquid or cube) and small amounts of herbs can really enhance the flavor. Adding nuts are also great for giving the soup a smooth creamy texture. Good luck!
Hi fansari2 We have been working with the Vitamix blender for over 20 years. If it is a high powered blender that can create friction heat it should be able to. However, as we are unsure of your blenders capabilities. it might be best to speak to the company you purchased your product off. Have a wonderful day.
Well, my Vitamix 5200 arrived today, and the second thing I tried in it was a variant of this soup (tomatoes, celery, carrots, basil, organic veggie stock, cashews, fresh lemon slice, and a pinch of chilli flakes). Yum, so good! It took 6 minutes from starting to grab ingredients to drinking the soup, with everything all washed up and put away. I only put a tiny pinch of chilli flakes in, but it's got real bite!
A great recipe ..... apart from the unnecessary inclusion of a whole birds eye chilli which totally takes over the flavour and ruins it. Be sparing with the chilli and you may have a winner .....only 330 calories and enough for 3 bowls of healthy soup.
880 mg of sodium :( for the cube stock (vegetarian) from local publix. know any good brands that don't have so much that's worse then a can of soup. :) the soup was awesome though minus my girlfriend and I put a little bit too much chilli peppers haha.. make more videos :)
Hi Tommy! I would like to get some advices...Above 46°Celsius, the enzymes get screwed so in order to not destroy those precious enzymes what would be the average time to run the vitamix? i noticed that your marvelous soup was steaming. Would it be fine as well rather using cold water to use instead luke warm water then just spin the mix for, let say , 30 seconds? Thanks for your nice video
Hi Tommy,i realised that after watching your video again........ it is a very tasty soup. I passed this recipe on to my friend who is on the 2-5 fast diet ....... she plays around with the cashew content slightly as she is only allowed 500 calories on these days and she likes to fit in a green thick in the morning ...perfect!
We just bought a used Vitamix from a box outlet. We made soup which was good and I made a pumpkin spice latte but neither became hot enough for our liking....even after 6 minutes. Is this probably not working properly?
Hi SonriseRoofing, The soups usually make around 1 litre, which is roughly 4 servings. The link to the recipe is just under the video :) I hope this helps!
Ours came out frothy. I think the only addition we made was some mushrooms. Any ideas on why this occurred? The texture throughout was really quite airy throughout (not just on top) and not very appetizing, although the taste was spot on considering the ingredients used.
I would like to make plit peas soup in my vitamix but I cant find any receipes I do love tomato basil to but plti pea is one my fav could you make one up for us Linda
I just got mine a few days ago, i was surprised that it didn't have a button that said heat on it, but you just explained that for me.Before I bought this I didn't think I wanted a blender that heated, but boy i changed my mind,I have always made my own homemade soups, in large batches, but this fresh meatless soup, is gonna be so good for me, and my son.
Great video Tommy. I was just wondering if you could answer a question that's been plaguing me. Does the intense speed of the blades break down any potential nutrition? I have read it breaks down the digestive enzymes and other things
Tommy Nicholas.......loved it. I see a lot of tomato basil soups with the vitamix, but this one was pretty good, especially on cold days like today. Cheers.
Thanks for your advice! i should receive my Vitamix tomorrow and i will undoubtly enjoy delicious soup and perfect Victoria Boutenko smoothies :) Good Health

"spring onion"? You must mean what in America is a scallion. ??
@@opybrook7766 yes.
@@opybrook7766 In Canada we say green onions...
I used my vitamix for the first time today. Made kale,banana smoothie with almond milk and flax seeds. Good stuff. It's a very powerful machine. I'm about to make tomato soup now :)
I love your personality. You should do more recipes. I am so glad they are vegan friendly. Great job!

Don't you think that this is false advertising? You are advertising that this is a ready to eat hot soup. But, the vegetables are not cooked and the water is hot. I would not want to eat a soup that was not cooked unless it was a fruit soup served in the summer time.
No one is stopping you from boiling your soup until it's dead without much of nutrients and live enzymes, you even save $450 so you can afford to buy more junk foods.
Thanks for the ingredient. Just made it in my vitamix 5300 and it tastes fantastic
Wonderful to hear Dan! Glad you like it! Thanks for watching and happy blending!
Ok. That really wasn't bad. I was totally ready to smash this video. Quite surprised it worked lol.
Please don't smash my video haha! Glad you liked it in the end. This is the oldest video on my channel, wish I could redo it now haha!
Hi Cassandra Harris, 12 Steps to Raw Foods has some really healthy soup recipes amongst some other fantastic raw food recipes. It's a great addition to your book collection. I hope this helps!
Hi Tommy, thank you for this amazing recipe! For how long this soup can be stored in the fridge?
Thank you :)
Hi Elli, they're always best eaten fresh but depending on the ingredients used, a vegetable soup should last about 3-4 days stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Thanks for watching and happy blending!
Hi Tommy, do you have the nutrition information on this recipe? Thank you.
No sorry we don't provide this. Thanks for watching :)
Great, going to try it.
Hope you enjoy! Let us know what you think! Happy blending!
Great video! Thanks
the vegetarian stock cube that used, is that GMO free?
+Monica Capuchino Certainly is Monica. We use MASSEL stock cubes. Thanks for watching and happy blending! :)
hi ..im planning to buy vitamix...☺
Hi Eccentriceric69, there is no inclusion of a whole birds eye chilli I only used a tiny slice. Thanks for commenting.
I tried celery, tomatoes, garlic, zucchinis, salt, pepper, sugar, mixed salad, and it tasted awful. Probably did something wrong or not yet used to the taste yet...
Hi Steven, creating your own soup recipes with Vitamix can be challenging at times. Always remember that it is different to cooking on the stove at home, as we are not boiling the ingredients and destroying the enzymes. Tiny bits of flavor will go a long way. Raw celery has a very strong taste so I would recommend less celery. Also make sure you go easy on the garlic (no more than 1 clove). Forget the sugar and mixed salad as this would add an awful taste. If you want to sweeten it try adding 1/4 of an apple. Also try using some sort of stock (liquid or cube) and small amounts of herbs can really enhance the flavor. Adding nuts are also great for giving the soup a smooth creamy texture. Good luck!
Tommy Nicholas - Raw Blend Thank you for the advice. I will try it later.
Did you say "30,000 times a minute"? Is that how fast the vitamix works?!?!
Can you make some recipes with the new 'Dash Blender'? This is what I have at home, I love it!
You've got blender vitamix 5200 yet? Today, I get it on: ( amzn.to/1f0La6Z with price cheap. free shipping at home for me. great , fast and quality.
Hi fansari2
We have been working with the Vitamix blender for over 20 years. If it is a high powered blender that can create friction heat it should be able to. However, as we are unsure of your blenders capabilities. it might be best to speak to the company you purchased your product off. Have a wonderful day.
Forgot to mention that the heat temp is just perfect. Not scolding hot.
Good to hear :)
This is my fav soup.
A lot of people love this one :) We're glad you're loving it too!
Well, my Vitamix 5200 arrived today, and the second thing I tried in it was a variant of this soup (tomatoes, celery, carrots, basil, organic veggie stock, cashews, fresh lemon slice, and a pinch of chilli flakes). Yum, so good! It took 6 minutes from starting to grab ingredients to drinking the soup, with everything all washed up and put away. I only put a tiny pinch of chilli flakes in, but it's got real bite!
I'm super hungry now! I'm stoked you like it mate! Happy Blending and thanks for watching!
I made this yesterday. ..n we enjoyed it...it was yummy....thanks...
Hi TheBluebell007
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! It's one of our favourites.
mind blown.
It really is a delicious recipe :) Happy Blending!
A great recipe ..... apart from the unnecessary inclusion of a whole birds eye chilli which totally takes over the flavour and ruins it.
Be sparing with the chilli and you may have a winner .....only 330 calories and enough for 3 bowls of healthy soup.
880 mg of sodium :( for the cube stock (vegetarian) from local publix. know any good brands that don't have so much that's worse then a can of soup. :) the soup was awesome though minus my girlfriend and I put a little bit too much chilli peppers haha.. make more videos :)
Hi Tommy! I would like to get some advices...Above 46°Celsius, the enzymes get screwed so in order to not destroy those precious enzymes what would be the average time to run the vitamix? i noticed that your marvelous soup was steaming. Would it be fine as well rather using cold water to use instead luke warm water then just spin the mix for, let say , 30 seconds? Thanks for your nice video
Hi Tommy,i realised that after watching your video again........ it is a very tasty soup.
I passed this recipe on to my friend who is on the 2-5 fast diet ....... she plays around with the cashew content slightly as she is only allowed 500 calories on these days and she likes to fit in a green thick in the morning ...perfect!
We just bought a used Vitamix from a box outlet. We made soup which was good and I made a pumpkin spice latte but neither became hot enough for our liking....even after 6 minutes. Is this probably not working properly?
Hi Cindy, What Vitamix model do you have? What speed setting did you have it on? Thanks and happy blending!
te amo por esta sopa jajaja
9-2019 is this your only video on YT ..?????
We have a whole bunch of videos on TH-cam. This is definitely not our only one :) Make sure you subscribe!
Hi SonriseRoofing,
The soups usually make around 1 litre, which is roughly 4 servings.
The link to the recipe is just under the video :)
I hope this helps!
Ours came out frothy. I think the only addition we made was some mushrooms. Any ideas on why this occurred? The texture throughout was really quite airy throughout (not just on top) and not very appetizing, although the taste was spot on considering the ingredients used.
Hi Angela Bristow
Try adding some more cashew nuts to cream it up a bit. If there isn't enough, it can make it a bit frothy. Let us know how you go!
Just bought a 5000 at ShopGoodwill. No tax there either. Looks brand new. Probably never used. I'm trying this soup for lunch.
5min doesnt effect the enzymes it only brings more of it out into our bodies:)
plus my mom cant chew all the vegetables so its perfect
I would like to make plit peas soup in my vitamix but I cant find any receipes I do love tomato basil to but plti pea is one my fav could you make one up for us Linda
I just got mine a few days ago, i was surprised that it didn't have a button that said heat on it, but you just explained that for me.Before I bought this I didn't think I wanted a blender that heated, but boy i changed my mind,I have always made my own homemade soups, in large batches, but this fresh meatless soup, is gonna be so good for me, and my son.
Hi Carol Napolitano
Glad we could help :)
Thanks for watching and happy blending!
thank you
Great video Tommy. I was just wondering if you could answer a question that's been plaguing me. Does the intense speed of the blades break down any potential nutrition? I have read it breaks down the digestive enzymes and other things
you're the bomb!!!! would it be okay to prepare the portions of ingredients for individual soups and the freeze them for storage?
I don't see why that would be an issue! :) Let me know how you go and Happy Blending!
Which vitamix model do you use?
Hi Sharon, I currently have an Ascent 2300i and Explorian E310 at home. All household models are great though!
Tommy Nicholas.......loved it. I see a lot of tomato basil soups with the vitamix, but this one was pretty good, especially on cold days like today. Cheers.
Hi paul b
Glad you liked it! It's certainly one of our favourites.
Have a great day!
No tomato skin pieces?
Nope! Nice and silky smooth :) Thanks for watching!
@@RawBlendAustralia thanks! I'll try! And it crushes up the tomato seeds, too, then?
I've never experienced tomato seeds in my soup still so that's a yes :)
I don't think the whole chilli was in the recipe - just the tip! I'm not surprised it overpowered the whole dish!
this is one of the main reasons why I want a Vitamix. I want to be more healthy and want to have a machine high powered enough to do so.
Hi Phaseme0810,
We use Massell Stock cubes which we find really tasty and low in sodium.
I hope this helps!
Thanks for your advice! i should receive my Vitamix tomorrow and i will undoubtly enjoy delicious soup and perfect Victoria Boutenko smoothies :)
Good Health
