Chit Chat / IMPORTANT
« on: February 07, 2025, 11:59:22 am »
I received an email from Thermomix about an hour ago. Apparently a server on Recipe Community has been compromised.  I was on there last week and they said my details had been hacked. No passwords were compromised but names and addresses were.

I find it scarey but DD said to just be very careful.

Preparation
Toast the slivered almonds.

Chit Chat / Bermaline bread
« on: August 31, 2023, 09:01:57 am »
Hubby was over helping our elderly friend today, as he does each week. He came home with 3 Bermaline bread tins. They are different and apparently the bread was cooked so that it had a flat top. It used malt and wheaten grain and was quite heavy. I've been reading up about it and have become quite fascinated. I THINK it was around the 1930's or so.
I was wondering if anyone had heard of it? DH is going to clean them up and I plan to try and make some. I'm doing lots of googling and reading.

Chit Chat / Curious Information
« on: February 24, 2023, 05:50:50 am »
I just had a look at who was on the forum and what they were looking at. I was the only member. There were 5 people registering to become members, interesting as we rarely get new members. What surprised me was the number of people (20-30) who were looking at the profile of others. Some members had 3 or 4 others looking at their profile. I wonder why? Do people use the forum as a source of emails to send spam to?

« on: February 28, 2022, 07:00:56 am »

Ingredients
300g SR flour
330g brown sugar ( I reduced this a bit)
1 cup coarsely grated zucchini
1 cup grated carrot
2 teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
250ml vegetable or canola oil
4 eggs
50g walnuts
Preparation
1. Turn the oven to 180*C. Prepare a loaf tin.
2.Blitz the carrot and set aside.
3. Blitz the zucchini and set aside.
4. Place flour, brown sugar, zucchini, carrot, walnuts, cinnamon and nutmeg into a large bowl.
5. Place butterfly into the bowl. Add oil and eggs. Mix on speed 4 until very well combined.
6. Pour this into the flour mixture.
7. Stir to combine and place into the prepared loaf tin.

This can be iced with a cream cheese icing but I don't think it really needs it. I found this in a Coles magazine many years ago.

Cakes / Macadamia and Cranberry Cookies
« on: December 12, 2021, 08:29:33 am »
Macadamia and Cranberry Cookies
These a re as  little different to most biscuits as they are supposed to be flat!
Ingredients
185g unsalted butter
105g macadamias
220g brown sugar ( I used a bit less)
110g caster sugar
225g SR flour
75g plain flour
1 egg
1 egg yolk
100g cranberries
Preparation
Preheat oven to 180* and prepare at least 2 trays.
Toast the macadamias.
Place butter in bowl and melt at 50*, speed 1 until done.
Add flours, sugars, egg and egg yolk (you may like to give them a light beat first)
Knead until mixture comes together.
Add in nuts and cranberries. Mix in by hand or on knead.
Roll into balls (about 1 tablespoon) and place on trays about 6cm apart. Flatten a little and bake for around 12 minutes. Leave to cool on the trays as they are delicate.

This is based on a recipe in WW Christmas Cakes and Puddings. They are very nice. I may try them with pistachios and cranberries to make them more Christmassy.

Orange Biscuits
These are very tasty. I’ve decided to pop recipes in here as well as on “what are you cooking.” It makes the recipe so much easier to find.

It isn’t a thermomix recipe but is made in a food processor.

I’ve just read that if you have a TM 6 you will soon be able to put your own recipes onto the machine. I hope it’s easy as I would love to be able to do this.
