Recipe Book Recipe Reviews / TM5 Australian Basic Cook Book: Recipe review Cream of Tomato Soup page100
« on: November 08, 2014, 05:55:12 am »
I am in week two of using my Thermie and I made this soup last night and it was the best tomato soup I have ever tasted.  It was the first time I have ever tried to make tomato soup and I couldn't be happier with the result.  I followed the recipe exactly in the Basic Cook Book.  I did use tomatoes that we can get here In Port Macquarie from Ricardoes.  They are grow hydroponically and taste sensational so maybe that is why it tasted so good.  
It was so easy.   :)

 :) Hello to all,
I have known about Thermomix for a few years as a good friend in another state is a demonstrator.  I hadn't wanted one until recently when she was visiting on holidays and we went to see the new machine here in my town when it was launched.  Well I was so impressed with the TM5 that I signed up that night.  
I have begun my journey slowly making simple things and learning how to do basic procedures.  I am loving this way of cooking.  My list so far is custard, coleslaw, bread, savory scrolls, soups; pumpkin and tomato, rice, steamed vegies and marinated chicken.  I will never buy a tin of tomato soup again, I just loved the creamy one from the ECB.  I have a list a mile long of things to try next but I want to make the TM5 part of my life not let it take over so we are still having the roast vegies and other favourites.  I have been to one cooking class and will go to everyone that I can as I found it really valuable and stimulating and full of recipes to try.  I wish it was available 40 years ago when I began our family as I can see so many advantages for mums with young children and working mums too.  
Vinnes is also loving me as I donate the appliances that I no longer need and make room in the cupboards.
Thank you to the administrators of this site as I think I will be making frequent visits and hopefully be able to contribute too as my skills and experience widen.
I AM LOVING MY THERMIE..........    :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
