That's a great idea, Uni. Thanks. Do you mean the tip about using the chopstick? Have done that with some mince - worked beautifully! Thank you! Do you mean to do the same with the sofrito?
Can you give me an idea of proportions for the sofrito? Or it is just what you have and the way you like it . . .??
Also found this for a sorbet . . . http://www.superkitchenmachine.com/2010/9659/redzepi-noma-carrot-sorbet-thermomix-recipe.html

umo integral de zanahoria (Whole carrot juice) - about this recipe
This recipe for carrot juice needs to be made in a Thermomix. It uses the whole carrots whereas if made in a juicer the pulp will be wasted.
This is a translation of a recipe in Thermomix TM31 Imprescindible para tu cocina, which is the book you receive when buying a Thermomix in Spain.
Ingredients
350g carrots, peeled
1 lemon, peeled, pith and seeds removed
100g sugar (see Chef's notes below)
500g water (approx)
6 or 8 ice cubes
Method
Chop the carrots 5 seconds / Speed 5.
Add the lemon, sugar, water and ice cubes and set for 3 minutes / Speed 10.
If it is not smooth enough for you, repeat the operation for a little longer.
Add the basket to the bowl to strain it, hold it down with the spatula and pour into a jug filled with ice.
If it is well blended, there is no need to strain it.
Chef's notes
The sugar content is high and can be cut down. I found the juice to be very sweet and feel that 60g is sufficient. However, I did not pour mine over a jug of ice, which would have made it less sweet.
You might need ear plugs when processing at Speed 10!

yes do the same with the sofrito
10 carrots
4 sticks of celery
3 onion
and lots of garlic ;D
for best results individually fry carrots 1st then add celery cook until soft then add onions and garlic fry until onions are soft.
for a risotto i would use about 3tbl of this mix
i have made it b4 in the *: much nicer on the stove top
