Another West Aussie :)

Hi All
Thought I would just say a quick hello, I have had my Thermomix since Nov last year when my gorgeous hubby gave me one for my birthday
I have found the TM a perfect fit for our small (but growing) family, as cooking healthy meals and snacks has been made so easy. I have particularly loved baking our own bread and rolls, with the only loaf of bread purchased since Nov was whilst DH was home alone while our almost 3 yr old son and I were away down south
I just wish I had a thermomix when our DS was a baby, but it is perfect timing with a DD on her way sometime in the next few weeks.
This forum has been an invaluable resource of recipes and hints and tricks, it truly is a wonderful online community. I'm looking forward to being able to contribute some ideas as I get better and better at converting recipes.
Cheers

Hello & welcome to the forum Agelfling, we all wish we had our machines much earlier but at least we have them now and can put them to good use. You are going great with your bread making, what else have you been making. Good luck with the impending birth of DD.

Welcome Angelfling. How exciting a new baby for you. The TMX will be very handy for you.
Perhaps you will be able to make it to one of our Perth get togethers. It won't be for a while as we had one yesterday.

Welcome to a fellow West Aussie. I'm new to the forum myself but loving it already. I wish I had my tmx when my son was younger too (he's now 2 years 7 months).

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'd love to come to a Perth get together, if it is a little while away that will probably suit me well as I am going to have my hands full for the next few months
Besides going mad with bread making, I have been using my thermomix everyday and it certainly got a work out in the lead up to Christmas - as we hosted it this year I made Pavlova (from In The Mix), cranberry sauce, Rustleberry ice cream, choc chip ice cream, gravy, bechamel sauce, mayonnaise and various salads, basically whatever I could to make life easier.
My mum and I recently gave it a good work out processing over 5 crates of home grown garlic, firstly peeling and then mincing with salt and vinegar - we made about 25litres of minced garlic and it took two of us 2 days to do (in between entertaining a very active little boy) - mum did it by herself last year, it took her 5 days with one fifth of the garlic.
Other than that, we have gone mad making hummus, sundried tomato tapenade and other assorted dips, turkish bread, cyndi o'meara's vege sausage rolls (I'm a vego but the boys aren't), pizza dough (started making it with milk instead of water, which makes the dough very resilient and easy to work with and great to freeze), banana bread, crumpets, various juices, apple sauce, risottos, un-fried rice, cupcakes and creamy vanilla frosting, muesli bars, speculaas, choc chip cookies, the list is endless! I am going to make I love Bimby's chocolate cake for DS's birthday party on Monday - A rocket has been requested
, as well as judydawn's choc raspberry brownies (substituting rustleberries for raspberries - my mums own berries, a cross between blackberries and raspberries), along with mini pizzas, sausage rolls, scones and fairy bread - my must have!
Most of the recipes I have made have come from this forum, so a big thanks to everyone who contributes such great recipes!

Wow Agelfling, that is an amazing list. And all that garlic double wow. Bet your house was over powered with a garlic smell for a few days afterwards lol. You certainly are benefiting from owning a TM.

Whatever did you do with all that garlic you processed Agelfling
What is the ratio of garlic to salt and vinegar mixture - would you care to share that and the method with us please. Next question is - how do you store it, in the pantry or in the fridge and how long does it last. Obviously a long time if you and Mum did that much
We are all loving the caramelised garlic paste from Tenina's new book but it might be advantageous to have something different on hand too.

Welcome to the forum Agelfling. I would love to have the mince garlic recipe too.
The rustleberries sound very interesting. It sounds that the thermomix is making a big
impact on your household.
