Thanks for all your help I will buy a slice tin today.

2
What size is the slice tin, I hope this isn't a stupid question but I am not familiar with these types of tins having lived in Asia for many years.Is it the sort of tin that you would use for brownies?

Does that mean I should take it out when there is still a slight wobble or should the top be quite firm?

4
It didn't look cooked to me even after being in the oven nearly one and a half hours, it was still sloppy in the middle

Thanks for that tip I wondered if the depth of the mix in the tin was too much.
I will have another attempt using a larger tin, my husband is still eating the cremated remains he says it tastes good, but i think it is a bit raw in the centre.

It was the spring clip 22-24 cm as suggested in the recipe, it did rise to the top of the tin and I wondered if there was too much mix as it did not seem to cook in the middle

Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Help with Torta Caprese
« on: September 21, 2011, 02:44:41 am »
I made Torta Caprese carefully following the instructions and checking the oven temperature.
After one hour in the oven the batter was still wobbling even though it was browning.
I left the cake for another 20 mins, covering the top but the outside was burnt and rock hard and the inside was still sloppy in the middle.
My oven thermometer was showing the correct temperature throughout the baking time.
What have I done wrong? The mixture seemed to stay much too wet. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as so many people praise this cake, and make it successfully.
I tasted the white chocolate version at a demo and it was wonderful.

Introduce Yourself / Hello Everyone

Hello Everyone,
I have had my Thermomix for about 3 weeks now but I feel I am failing badly after having used a Magimix successfully for many years.
I feel that I may have made a very expensive mistake
My coleslaw turns to mush even though I followed the recipe carefully.
Some of the carrot had not been chopped whilst ,the cabbage was pulp.
When it was made at the demo I was impressed.
I cannot work out what I am doing wrong and have now attempted this and other salad recipes several times and have been unable to produce anything presentable.
When I made the stock concentrate the seal on the lid of the Thermomix retained a very strong odour, that would not go despite many washes and soaks in bicarbonate of soda.
The seal seems to absorb odours once it is subjected to heat.
My consultant has now changed the seal as it was affecting the flavours of the more delicate food.
There also appear to be other people having the same problem with the seal.
I am very impressed with the Forum, so many lovely recipes, and the friendly helpful members,
