Recipe Requests / Re: nut butter
« on: August 28, 2012, 07:46:57 am »
Hey, does the book say how long the nut butter should last?

I made some months ago, and I looked at it today and it's not mouldy or anything.. Do you reckon I can still eat it?

Hey I don't have that cookbook, so basically put in some nuts and churn em up, on what speed? Then add a bit of oil if needed til you get the right consistency?

Thanks!

Starters and Snacks / Sundried Tomato and Basil Dip with Feta
« on: November 23, 2011, 04:38:27 am »
Sundried Tomato and Basil Dip with Feta:
Number of People:
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
1 clove garlic
150g drained Sundried tomatoes
2 tbsp Parmesan (or more if you like) - grated beforehand in TM
160g unsalted Cashews
40g white vinegar

( just like the dip on page 54 Everyday Cookbook)

Then I bought a small tub or Geoff Jansz Sundried tomato and Basil Feta.
I then used the sundried tomatoes from the feta along with others to make up the 150 g
I used the oil from the Feta instead of plain olive oil because it was infused with basil.
Then I added all the feta

Pulsed a couple of times with the Turbo button!

The best dip ever!

Beware though, it makes a whole lot!


Preparation:
Put all ingredients in TM bowl
Set dial to Closed Lid position
Pulse with Turbo button for 5-10 seconds ( about 4 pulses) so that you have a rough but even chopped mixture

Haha! I did not even realise I spelled it wrong! I want CHUNKY dips! Not chucky haha..

So I took the Capsicum and Sundried tomato dip from the everyday cookbook, took out the capsicum entirely and replaced it with Feta cheese!  YUM!

I was trying to recreate the Tomato and Basil chunky dip so I checked out the ingredients and it has both parmesan and feta cheese..

Ingredients:
1 clove garlic
150g drained Sundried tomatoes
2 tbsp Parmesan (or more if you like)
160g unsalted Cashews
40g white vinegar

( just like the dip on page 54 Everyday Cookbook)

Then I bought a small tub or Geoff Jansz Sundried tomato and Basil Feta.
I then used the sundried tomatoes from the feta along with others to make up the 150 g

I'm in Australia and I found my organic virgin coconut oil at the healthfood shop.. They don't sell it at woolies etc..

About the honey.. I just guess, about a teaspoon.. but it depends how sweet you like it..  I quite like the sour natural yoghurt taste..

Hi, anyone seen the wattle valley chunky dips at Woolies? It's an Australian product so i dont know if they sell it overseas..

Anyone have any recipes for this kind of dip? There is one in the Everyday cookbook, for sundried tomato and capsicum..

I looked on the ingredients at the shop and some of them have feta cheese in them as well as parmesan.. If anybody has experiemented with this kind of dip I would love to know how it turned out!

Thanks

I have just ditched  my normal oil and use cocnut oil for all cooking.. for stir fries etc. you cannot taste the difference but I am yet to try a chunky dip etc, I may have to stick with Olive oil for these..

I also put coconut oil on my eczema, the itch stops immediately! and it fairly well rubs in..

Put all ingredients in TM blend speed 8-9/30 sec
Check all ingredients are blended properly, blend again if necessary
