Woohooooo Rouge!! Today's the day!!
Oh and I can't remember what I made first :(
Yay Rouge!!! I think the first thing we made was Arribiata sauce. The delivery demo was just before dinner :) we still make it regularly.
You can't beat chocolate custard though. Or fruity dream. Or making chocolate custard with rice milk you just made in the TMX...or a GF carrot cake with cream cheese icing. Just give me a buzz if you're making that, though, so I know when to come over :)
Bloom - it really is amazing cake, isn't it. Glad you enjoyed it. It lasts well too.
The Delivery what now?
Heh. I want to make yoghurt tonight. For sure.
I so want to make yogurt but it scares me lol!
And yet I don't want to cook dinner in it. LOL that scares me :p
Maybe I can get some chicken thighs and do Chicken Confit with slow poached eggs and rice... Maybe.
Olive - have you found you're using the umami paste much? I kerp meaning to make it, though without nuts. What do you use it with? I haven't been using the vegie stock much recently either, but we're eating more salads etc
I've made yoghurt before. It's easy. I did buy a $20 yoghurt thermos thingy at IGA. I make the yoghurt in the TMX, pour into a sterilised jar. Put the jar into the thermos with boiling water and leave overnight. Similar for cultured butter. Heat yoghurt & cream in TmX. Culture in thermos overnight. Pour back into TMX in the morning and make butter. It's so yum and you end up with cultured buttermilk as well.
I'm going to do the thermoserve one, have you seen that recipe?
L&B - the magic bean cake was awesome, a hit with DD and also my brother. I could only find 400gm tins of beans and it worked out fine.
Rouge - First thing I made was mushroom rissotto as that is a guaranteed hit with DD and means dinner gets eaten without any arguments, I also made brandy cream anglaise to go with our christmas pudding.
Yesterday I made chocolate marble italian meringues with left over egg whites I had from making icecream mmmm they are delicious with a soft goey marshmallow middle. With the icecream recipe from EDC does anyone else find that it melts so quickly and goes abit watery but it does taste so good, I have been making it with vanilla beans.
Just saw a new link to choice comparing the thermochef with the thermomix - we won :D Was an interesting read (not sure if can link it, so haven't). Actually to be more precise they said this:
Has anyone made Cyndi's GF bread? I made it the other day and I'm a bit disappointed with it - bit tasteless & sank in the middle. Any thoughts? I did sub for the egg & the apple cider vinegar tho - dunno if that played a part.:
Like the Thermomix, the Thermochef is great for a busy family or less experienced cook, saving time and promoting healthier cooking - but it doesn't impress us as much as its rival.
It performs very well for cooking but just isn't as easy to use. Although you'll pay substantially more for the Thermomix, that is a product whose quality justifies its high price tag.
Rouge - congrats on your new arrival! I think the first things I made were vegie stock paste, mushroom risotto & custard :)
L&B - thanks for the egg subs list. I had seen that before but kept forgetting. I did the fruity dream with chia seed and there was no way you could tell there wasn't egg in it! Awesome!
btw for anyone using pinterest, I've started a pinterest folder for thermie recipes, it seems a good way to keep them organised online - PM me if you wanna follow me (not that I have many pinned yet lol).
Belfie - my TMX consultant also suggested using coconut milk as an egg replacement in the fruity dream.
Belfie - I've made that bread, but using the Quirky Cooking adjustments. I havn't tried subbing egg or ACV though. It's one of the best GF breads I've ever eaten. Pity it didnt work out. What did you sub with?
Rouge - dont think I've seen the thermoserve yoghurt recipe. Sounds interesting. I once tried making ice cream in the thermoserver. Doh! Wondered why it didnt set.
Phoenix - I do find the EDC ice cream icy and it stays softer than normal
Ice cream. As mentioned previously, you can get more ice cream headaches with it too. It's probably related to the absence of preservatives & additives.
So excited to find this thread, I have had my thermomix for a couple of months now, but still feel like I haven't quite got my head around it.
I have made the most amazing rhubarb icecream in it though :)
It's arrived :D YAY!
So what have you made so far??!!
Nothing yet. I have to go do some stocktaking for work in about an hour... so I want to wait till I get back.
I'll be making yoghurt tonight and setting it in my thermos' as I don't have the thermoservers yet.
The kids will probably want smoothies. I'm excited about the baking powder! <--- Yes I'm a weirdo.
Quick question for those who have made the GF Artisan Bread from Quirky Cooking..........where did you get Sorghum flour, I've tried 3 health food shops and an organic shop but noone stocks it.
