Could you send me a copy of the Elder Flower Cordial, please. Our elders are flowering now and this will be my last chance to make the cordial.

Post by: trudy on November 08, 2015, 11:04:04 am: Chookie, where did you buy the elderflower plant?

CC, do you know if they are selling these books yet or do you still have to have a demo?

I bought a plant and it died. Can't remember where I bought it. This one grew by its self. Before I realized what it was, I tried to cut it out. It just grew bigger.

Post by: Katj on November 09, 2015, 06:23:03 am: It looks like a lovely book. It will take you a while to work through that list, very impressive!
Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: trudy on November 09, 2015, 07:09:18 am: Thanks Bess. I did know that it can grow into a big tree but thought that I might try it in a large tub. Had fritters once make in Italy and they were lovely. They just made a sweet batter and dipped the flowers whole into it, then fried and sprinkled with icing sugar!!
Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: achookwoman on November 09, 2015, 09:10:26 pm: Trudy, the Elderberry trees grow wild in our area. I have made the fritters from the flowers, was a bit disappointed with them. Probably my cooking.

Post by: Bootobethin on February 19, 2016, 10:09:00 am: It is really frustrating that Thermomix UK won't sell us this book and send to Australia. They suggested I ask a friend in the UK to forward it on to me! They said they are "not allowed" to sell it outside their area. I guess that is to protect Thermomix Australia just in case they want to sell it. Or not. It seems very restrictive and makes me grumpy!
It is such a restrictive method of customer service.
Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: trudy on February 21, 2016, 11:11:13 am: I agree that it's a shame that this book can't be sent out here. I have had no problem in the past except for the DVD that they put out a few years ago but never with books.
Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: JulieO on February 21, 2016, 09:36:21 pm: It would solve a lot of the problems if they could release books both as an ebook as well as a hard copy so we could all enjoy them.
Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: Bootobethin on March 02, 2016, 12:36:06 pm: Yes an e book would be great!
I am not holding my breathe though.
Such a pity they are so restrictive. It is not very good customer service for loyal customers who support the company!

Post by: Katiej on March 06, 2016, 10:46:31 pm: Have you seen CC's competition to win a copy of the book Boo?
A good way to potentially get your hands on the much sort after book.

Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: Bootobethin on March 07, 2016, 03:10:32 am: No worries Judy!
Thanks Katie I am about to enter the competition if I can figure out how to post a photo.
I have never posted a photo before!

Post by: Kiwitrace on July 16, 2016, 10:06:42 am: Where can you buy this book in the UK? My husband is currently in the UK (and I'm in NZ) ... could he buy it somewhere for me or is it only available via a specific internet site? He would need to be able to obtain it in time so he can bring it with him when he flies back to NZ in August.
Thanks to anyone who can help/advise!! :)
Title: Re: The British Isles on a Plate
Post by: Cornish Cream on July 16, 2016, 10:53:27 am: Your husband can phone UK Thermomix HO and order the book using a Credit Card but it has to be delivered to a UK address.Delivery is fairly quick by a courier.
Here is their website

Post by: Persistenttiger on October 09, 2016, 06:24:14 am: Pulled pork and cider rolls Review

The flavour in the pork was nice, however, the texture was a bit tuna-ish. After the first stage of meat cooking, I would reserve the meat in a thermoserver, cook down the portion of the sauce for the required time, and then shred the pork on reverse.

The bap rolls were perfect, and the apple sauce was nice too, however did need more cooking than the recipe stated.
