Title: Sid is on the way!
Post by: breadsauce on December 05, 2012, 09:30:23 am

Helloooo, salutations and Good ----------- (insert time zone here),

Yes, I have succumbed after much deliberation and research, and am awaiting the imminent arrival of Sid.  Oh dear, it's been named already, is that a good sign?

I am an expat in Bulgaria so am looking forward to adjusting some of the local dishes to the TM way of doing things and if successful, sharing them here.  Traditional dishes here, are simple and packed full of flavour, my waistline will testify to that.  :D

Probably like most new and prospective owners, I have spent a lot of time lurking on forums and reading reviews and have found this one to be the most friendly and honest.  Not being anywhere near a consultant and (ashamedly) not fluent in the language yet, I would like to thank everyone upfront for their patience in the question department and for the use of some really tasty sounding recipes.  I just hope I can repay the kindness at some stage. 

Anyway, having made the agonising decision to get a TM, I am now faced with the equally hard decision of what to try making first.  Well, that and ripping the kitchen apart in order to make room for Sid, so I had better get on with it.

I look forward to seeing you all around the forum.

SB

Hello and welcome to the forum SB. My first dish, like many others, was the EDC pumpkin soup followed by the mushroom risotto. Loads of recipes to try here, hope you have fun.

Thank you all for your welcomes!

Hehe Judydawn, my type of cooking is to close my eyes, open the cupboards and see what happens.  Still, the disasters are usually fairly interesting too  :D

Thanks for the thought Kimmyh.  The EDC is not available here, I had the choice of Full Steam Ahead and the Community recipes one.  I went for that one as it will cover the whole TM, not just the Varoma.  I think the EDC recipes are online, just got to find them, but it seems most have been tested and tweaks noted on here.

I think the first effort will be leftovers soup.  Broccoli, cauliflower, cheese and anything else that comes to hand.  At least if I get it wrong, I can chuck it under the grill and have veg au gratin.

If nothing else, the dawg is looking forward to my inevitable disasters  ;D

OK, I am off to prepare the sofa for a couple of hours of manual reading after Sid arrives (hopefully today).

Thanks again for the kind welcomes.

Welcome to the forum, has Sid  arrived  yet? .  If you need any help there is nearly always some on here that can answer you questions.

Hellooo Aussie Brenda,

Yes Sid arrived yesterday, safe and sound *quick snoopy dance around the kitchen*.  The only eek! moment so far was after I dismantled it all to clean it before first use and spent 5 mins trying to work out how I had broken it so quickly because the lid wouldn't fit back properly.  Yep, I had forgotten to put the seal back in, *sighs and slaps self*. 

So far so good, supper (cheese sauce (Sid), veg leftovers and pasta (done in the normal way)) and the sandwich rolls from the communities book has all worked very well, much to the dawgs disappointment  :D.  Still I'm sure that his day will come.

I now have to behave myself or it'll be a new freezer next for all the experimenting.  ;D
