I should have tasted it before serving.

I made Swedish meatballs from Cookidoo tonight, the meatballs were good the sauce was a bit bland but maybe some salt & pepper added would do the trick.

Thank you for that, exactly what I needed to hear, I love the flexibility of my TM31 I can use it exactly how I want. An apprentice in the kitchen (does all the prep work) or a full on chef (makes meals and bread with ease) working on any recipe I choose not restricted to only those on Cookidoo. I actually subscribe to Cookidoo as I love to pinch a bit of this recipe and technique and add it to another recipe and there are many, many choices.

I have been looking into joining Teninas club, any thoughts?

I guess I am a old 'stick in the mud' TM31 user, but I do not see the use or benefit of an upgraded all bells and whistles machine if you cannot over-ride it and use it manually to do what you want and not be tied only to a pre-programmed set of recipes, no matter how varied they may be

That’s pretty much how I feel.

Hi Cookie1, it was her review that actually made me think the TM5 might be a better option, I really need to go and see it in action   :)

Hi JD, I love my TM31 and it certainly is looking a bit battered but has never skipped a beat! And I won’t be getting rid of it, I looked into purchasing another bowl but the cost of that led me to think that I’d be better off putting that money into a new or newish secondhand, perhaps.

Chit Chat / TM6 question
« on: August 09, 2019, 10:23:00 pm »
Hello everyone, it’s been quite some time since I’ve popped in and asked a question but I am doing a bit of research. I am wondering whether to purchase a TM5 second hand or go with the TM6. I am going to go to a cooking class to see it demonstrated but obviously they will try and sell me a TM6. The reason that I’m hesitating purchasing a TM6 is I like to convert my own recipes and my much used TM31 allows me to do this, but can I only use Cookidoo recipes to access some of the TM6 functions?

Thanks for any advice  :)

I made this last night and it was delicious, the pastry is simple and the eggy cheese mixture a classic simple one with an amazing smooth creamy texture. I substituted the cheddar cheese for the gruyere and plain cream for the creme fraiche. Will definately make again 4/5  :)

Buttercups I just purchased Cyndi O'mearas (sp?) healthy eating tm book $15 from HO and there are some great tips and recipes for using your varoma in there.

I have never had my varoma demo, I don't agree with it either and have taught myself how to use it, mostly from the recipes posted here  :-*

The only way to have frozen beans and carrots is to boil the b*****y out of them and stir through butter and salt when cooked ;)

For those of us who like to print off recipes, finding ways to store them can be a challenge but I may have found the solution:

Soups / Re: Vegetable soup with bacon & pasta

This soup is delicious I am eating a bowl full right this minute!

I used carrots, cabbage and frozen corn as that is all I had and macaroni pasta, 1tbs of vegetable stock, 2 rashers of bacon.

Thanks Maddy for another brilliant recipe.
