Nothing quite says it is summer like a nice smoothie, and with the Simplissimo Chef, you can enjoy smooth and cold beverages whenever you like. However, the Simplissimo Chef boasts a whole range of modes to help you enjoy a variety of different foods through its cooking and steaming functions - perfect to fit into a busy lifestyle.

The SCOTT brand is known for providing high-quality and premium appliances, and the Simplissimo Chef is no exception. The design of the blender is sleek, with a touchscreen LED interface to easily switch between the 8 pre-programmed mode options or 3 manual blending modes. Included in the pre-set modes are options for chunky soup, smooth soup, sauce, and smoothies. Usefully, especially in summer, they also include an ice-crushing function perfect for adding to a drink or for blending your favourite frozen fruit into a perfectly cold smoothie.

I was intrigued as the Simplissimo Chef is so much more than a blender, as it features cooking modes to heat soups, keep them warm, a steam option, and a sous-vide option for a slow but constant temperature to cook food. This is not something you would get with a regular blender, and thus the Simplissimo Chef takes on a larger role in the kitchen to provide blending, heating, and cooking options to fit in with a busy lifestyle.

However, the great features of the Simplissimo Chef do not end there; its functionality has been carefully designed by SCOTT with a variety of small luxury details to give it a premium quality. The jar design has a cold liquid capacity of 1.75 litres and a hot liquid capacity of 1.4 litres with a stainless-steel blade at the bottom. Usefully, the blender also provides an audio cue when food is done. Included in the Simplissimo Chef’s function is an auto clean setting to clean the Boroscilicate glass jar, which is essential for quick clean-ups, especially as this design is aimed to fit into a busy lifestyle.

I was thoroughly impressed by the SCOTT Simplissimo Chef All in One Cook Blender as it not only serves as a brilliant blender but includes a variety of other cooking functions to make it a must-have addition to the kitchen. I was thrilled with the smoothie I created when testing this out, as I personally like a very smooth smoothie and the Simplissimo Chef did just that with ease! This is a brilliant buy for summer to have easy cooking options for soup without the need for hot ovens or the hob to be turned on, and to be able to have ice and smoothies on hand quickly. If you are on the hunt for a new blender that can exceed your expectations and will become a crucial appliance in your kitchen, then this is the one for you.

Pros:

- Variety of mode settings for blending

- Cooking temp of 40-99 °C

- Easy Clean mode

Cons:
