Is it possible to marry my Thermomix???

[ThermieFan]

. I'm finding it so helpful to make basics that I otherwise have to go to the shops for - almond meal and milk, butter, muesli (how freaking awesome is cada?!), stock... I can't believe I lived for this long without a Thermomix!


Hi there, may I ask what "cada" is??

You just beat me to it Judy

The CADA sounds wonderful. Thanks for the thread.

Hi Allison and welcome. Loved your introduction. Think you summed up how most of us feel.

Welcome Alison

Thanks everyone! And thanks for helping with Thermiefan's cada question.

Can you believe I have been cooking non-stop since yesterday morning. I even dreamed about the goodies I could whip up.

What did you make?

[ajko]

I made cauliflower rice, Thai red chicken curry (from EDC), raw chocolate with almonds (Quirky Jo's recipe)... Um what else... Natural New Age Mum's Apricot and Coconut slice and Almond Chia Bread! I'm sure there was more but that's all I can remember. Oh and more EDC veggie stock as I tried to freeze my last batch in silicone ice cube trays and it wouldn't freeze? Weird.

It doesn't freeze ajko due to the high salt content. I just put mine in a ice cream container in the freezer and scoop when needed. It's brilliant!

Sounds like you are on a roll though! I like the sound of the chia bread.

Great cooking Alison.

My DDs still don't like the noise of the TM, but it doesn't freak them out so much now. I keep a thick towel beside TM and cover TM up with the folded towel when I am cutting etc, muffles the noise and everyone is happy! And it doesn't wake the kids if they are sleeping when I am cooking either any more!

That makes sense about the salt content preventing freezing - I'm starting my chemistry unit for my degree next semester so now I will be one step ahead of the other students :-) the chia bread is so delicious, went really well with butter and cashew spread. Thanks for the tip about muffling with a towel! Great idea. I used to hide in the walk-in pantry to use the food processor and could possibly move the thermomix in there, but given the amount of time we are spending together I'd prefer it to be out in the open! Hiding in the pantry with my lover is the way that rumours start!
