Thermomix ingredient wish list - comparing notes

[Emme]

That is one thing I have yet to try Uni, truffles and truffle oil.

i would love to infuse my own oil with a real truffle, one day 

There is no relationship between truffle, truffle aroma and a fresh truffle. However, it does tend to come as a shock to some that the truffle oil you see in your local delicatessen or fine food shop is not made from real truffles at all, but from synthetic flavorings, actually nature identical flavorings that have been determined to exist in natural truffles

[Mama Fergie]

I love fresh truffles and dislike intensely the artificially flavored truffle oil.   

[Amy :-)]

I used to love the Choc Orange Fudge Truffles I used to buy from one of our local shops...

[Mama Fergie]

They are yummy Amy but no connection to the truffles Uni mentioned
They are an expensive fungi that grow underground only in certain climates and conditions.
They are grown here in WA in manjimup as well as other areas in Australia and of course in Italy and France.
delicious

[Amy :-)]

Lol oopsies

I reckon the chocolate ones sound better than fungi. Even though I don't eat chocolate

[Halex]

One day I will buy a truffle, it will blow the food nudget out for 2 months

[Mama Fergie]

Magical 

[Halex]

[Amy :-)]

I'm still waiting to try Saffron

[Mama Fergie]

Saffron is lovely Amy.
You can buy a small container in the supermarket and only use a few threads each time.

[Amy :-)]

I'm scared that I'll do something wrong and end up wasting it
I'm such a wuss with expensive products

[fundj&e]

i think saffron is  most expensive food in the world

[Halex]

I love saffron typical

[Mama Fergie]

You won't waste it Amy
Just soak  a few strands in warm water then add. As well as the subtle flavours it adds colour especially to rice.
