excited!!

Thanks for the recipe Thermomixer.  Glad you sent that before I read how to do it myself. Left me scratching my head but have printed it out so that I can study it then get someone in the know to decypher it.  Why don't these sites have a 'print me' button to click on for us computer illiterate oldies?

Hi Kathy,
Welcome.  This is a wonderful site with so much support!  Glad you've found it.
I'm just up the road in Wangaratta

Hi Kathy - just realised that you are a Melburnian - yippeee another Victorian.  What suburb are you in?

I'm in the Dandenong Ranges Belgrave!

ahhhhhhhhhh the egg and temp issue is scaring me!!!! hope my Thermomix arrives soon.   

[Thermomixer]

Thanks Kathy - I'm the other side of town - Yarraville.

PS - you can hit the QUOTE button up the top of a Post to have the Quote inserted and then chop out waht you don't need.

Hope your machine arrives soon.

[Kathy]

lol thanks for that!!

Hi all,
 I have been busy reading through the recipes over the last week and making notes on what I will make. I'm off to Perth tomorrow to visit some girlfriends, while I'm there I have arranged a Thermomix Demo!! 

They all think I'm crazy that I don't want to go shopping instead!! I keep saying just wait till you see this amazing machine!!

I will get mine Thermie when I get back next week, REALLY can't wait!!

[Thermomixer]

I can understand - my wife wants to have a day to herself for shopping - but I will probably spend that time on the computer

  Hi there, this is my first attempt at a post.  I will confess straight up that I am a consultant based in Melbourne - bayside suburbs - & I, needless to say, adore my TM - known as "Thelma".  The issue of meringue does seem to cause some angst.  I only received some advice from our senior consultant here in Melbourne yesterday.  In her recipe she says egg white (4 @ room temp) should be beaten for 3 mins and 30 seconds on speed 4 with the butterfly inserted.  She maintains the success is dependent on "following the instructions exactly & not going off halfway through the process".  I haven't made the meringue this way myself.........Sticky date pudding is my downfall for dessert & the Tm one is the best I have ever had..........

Am (hopefully) attaching her "Pavlova with Raspberry Cream" recipe

[judydawn]

I couldn't download the pavlova with raspberry cream - could Thermomixer please post it on the forum for us.   

[Thermomixer]

Brazen has done it - feel redundant.  Check the desserts at http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=1005.0

how can you possibly feel redundant after nearly 200 new posts in a day?

Well I didn't out you this time

Tell JB to contact JB - or TH in Perth - the Italians have been using heat for a while and it really is better.  Check with Tenina.  I may only be a dog and cat doctor, but ...... there is much better success with heat.

Brazen - aka Karen no 1 has made it into a post - for all to see

[JaneeZee]

It took me a few seconds to work out who the second JB was!!!!  I will direct JB as you suggest.

It seemed only fair that I should "out" myself & I am amazed that not more consultants are using this site but I will certainly try to rectify that.

As a dog & cat doctor, you are a more than convincing "foodie" - sounds like you are having a wonderful time.............

[Thermomixer]

Good to see you active - must be hard with fingers in all the pies - wish we could send you some leads.

The great pretender !!

Well done Karen.  Imagine if all us girls could do what you do, Thermomixer wouldn't know if he was coming or going This recipe looks exactly like my old one before TMX.  Will be trying Brons first though.
