After 3 days in Melb. I've gone a bit crazy today.   Cooked a version of Thermomixers pea and ham soup.  Used bacon rib bones,   and these needed longer cooking,  but general flavor good.  Then made clinker slice ( Maddy's ?),  only had Maltesers so used these.  For DH who is a sweet tooth they will be fine.  Then made my recipe for  Macadamian Anzacs,  the EDC ones are too sweet for us  .Isi;s  Portuguese rolls for visitors tomorrow.   Also started some sour dough mix for sour dough Oat bread for cooking tomorrow morning.  Cut up some cumquats for jam,  tomorrow.   Will make some more quince paste tonight,  (Thermomixer's recipe)

I think Quinces may be a cold climate fruit,  although I know Maggie Beer makes it.

Jams and Chutneys / Plum Paste
« on: April 16, 2010, 12:17:11 pm »
After the success i had with Thermomixer's recipe for Quince Paste,  I thought that I would try some with Plums.    Thermomixer suggested that I might need to add some pectin,  so I did.   Excellent result.

750g. plums,  washed and stones removed.
300g. water
400g. sugar
1 packet Jamsetta, 50g.
Juice of 1 lemon


Place plums and water in TMX bowl, cook at Varoma temp for 10 mins speed 5
Add sugar , jamsetta and lemon juice, cook at Varoma temp, 1 hour 10 mins, speed 4.

Cook with basket in place so that if it spits it will not go over your TMX.
Cool for 5 mins.  then pour into an oiled dish.   When cool,  cover and set in fridge.
Cut in squares and wrap in baking paper and then glad wrap.( I vacuum seal mine)
Eat with cheese or reconstitute by heating with a little water, to Jam consistency and use as you would jam.
Makes a great gift.

I posted a very good waffle recipe called Waffles with coconut oil and flour,  on 20th. Feb,  this year.  Just replace the coconut oil and flour with plain flour and melted butter,  if you wish.

Russell,  hold on a sec.  It has taken me several months,  with a lot of help both from the Forum and outside to understand how the Forum works. Also   what concerns me is that the adaptions to recipes can go on for months.  With the present system it is possible to follow these changes and see the evolution of a recipe.  Sure there is chit chat among the recipes,  but this is what gives the caring character to this Forum,  which most people like.   I understand that members who are more knowledgeable with computers can see the advantages but I like things as they are.   It is probably an age thing.
