Hi :)
« on: August 19, 2012, 12:33:45 pm »
Yep another Thermie newbie here :) I'm in Tassie and had my TM for almost 5 days. I am loving that I can easily whip 3 different home made things in my TM a day with no real effort. The easiest and most successful so far was a herb and garlic dip to feed the kids after school, took me 5 minutes and they were away and singing it's praises. I would like to attempt bread, it was a flop tonight but will try again tomorrow. I look forward to 'meeting' you all and learning more about TM.

Hi BecciM welcome to the forum, I'm also in Tassie (Perth)
Where about are you. There are quiet a few Tasmanians on the forum now.
Don't give up on the bread as its great once you have successes. Which bread recipe are you using?
I make a lot of bread rolls for the kids and DHs lunches and use either the cheese and bacon roll recipe or the no fuss bread recipe (both on this forum)

Hello and welcome to the forum BecciM. Here's the link to the no fuss rolls which can also be made into a loaf, easy peasy.

Thankyou JD I will try that one tomorrow. I tried Isi's very normal bread tonight and I stuffed up by only resting them once I think. Serves me right for trying to do that and get the kids bathed and into bed at the same time!

Dede I am in Hobart area :) I did live at Longford/Cressy for about 5 years, such a pretty spot up there :) I noticed in your pic you have 5 children yes? I have four and am keen to learn how TM can help me cater to their growing appetites!

Yes 5 kiddlets here, they certainly keep you on your toes. As for catering for a big family I use my TM a lot for making food for school/ work, and for preparing ingredients for main meals, and I steam all my veggies in the TM. I have had mine now for 20 months and still use it everyday and love it. Would hate to be without my TM now.

Welcome Becci.

I'm not very proficient on my TMX, I feel I'm still in the learning phase.

I havent made bread but i have made Maddies cheese & bacon rolls in Thermie but they were fantastic and I'm sure your kids would love them. Here is the link http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=3114.msg35967#msg35967
I do the best I can

Hi Becci,  Welcome to the Forum.  Try the No Fuss bread recipe, I wrote it for beginners.  Like where I live,  the finding of a warm spot for the  2 risings is an important challenge.  With 4 littlies,  time management is important with any cooking.  Ask for help, so you can get the most out of your TMX.   Ooddles of experience here in all types of cooking.
