PS:
I don't know about the rest of the world.. but as far as Portugal concern.. the thermomix recipe books are VERY expensive..
So thinking a little bit on the people who'd like to try other things without having to actually buy it..
I've placed a link on my blog with all the PDF versions of the books I have digitalized.
So currently there's only Portuguese ( obviously) , French and Spanish available there.
If you want to contribute send me a message please, otherwise just enjoy. any help with translation just let me know

PS take 2: For the ones having trouble finding the link which I guess it will be hard if you don't recognize portuguese, I've placed an image of the country flag next to the link, so it can be easily spotted.  Just enter there, and see the book covers and download if u'd like.

Greetings from Portugal ;)

Ow that would be nice. The spanish ones would be interesting.. the french will be harder but I have some french budies that will take care of it. How should we do it..? something like yousendit.com?  Maybe I can put them on my FTP and you can directlly download from there.

10. pitis
11. liver pate
12. cheese pate
13. sailor pate
14. tuna pate

COLD SOUPS
15. gaspacho
16. arugula soup
17. melon soup
18. melon soup with cheese
19. beet soup

HOT SOUP
20. green broth ( VERY TRADITIONAL )
21. Alentejana soup (VERY TRADITIONAL )
22. cação soup
23. canja AKA chicken soup ( VERY TRADITIONAL)

Recipe Requests / Re: Frozen Yogurt

Really, you just freeze them?

I've tried doin that once, it's true it gets more creamier after running a while on the thermomix but I do get the felling of too much... I don't know how to explain but I guess the best word would be ''ice crystals'' or ice grains, whatever you want to call it... and that's not the texture I'm looking for...

I had for the first time in a Dadone shop in Madrid airport a frozen yogurt that basically tasted like creamy natural yogurt but had the ice cream texture. I feel in love !!! Plus the toppings are infinite.. And to think it probably has much less calories than regular ice creams.. it's a win win

I HAVEEEE to discover a way to that in the TM. It will make my summers much happier :D

Oh I actually had no ideia!
Actually I've heard that thermomix is well spread in Portugal compared to the rest of the countries.. does that mean ...we are lazy?
I don't know hehehe, but I mean.. we have at least 12 thermomix books in Portuguese and everyday I hear more people talking about this machine. I don't know why the big effect in Portugal but I'm so enjoying it ;D Finally I have a say in the kitchen!! :D

Thanks Julie :D

I will try them!! I guess the base for variations of this recipe would be the vanilla yogurt right?
I'll have to find my favorite one before starting creating.

thanks again ;)

Recipe Requests / Frozen Yogurt
« on: September 01, 2010, 08:15:35 pm »
Hi all!

I'm trying to build my desserts blog having in mind the calories intake.. so I'm trying to keep the recipes lights.

I come across with frozen yogurt a lot as a substitute for ice cream with less calories and still tasty.

The thing is.. here in Portugal we don't have nothing with that term.. is there any recipe for this? Or a way to be done? Preferably on the thermomix?

Don't tell me you just buy yogurts and freeze them ;)

Thank you in advance

Greetings from Portugal

I sure agree with that ;)

I actually love this place, I'm not sure about the mainland, I just been there for vacations, never actually lived there.

I'm on a Portuguese Island called Madeira. Here I confirm, great place for vacations and for living. ;)

Everything is quite quiet but at the same time is not the end of the world, we are pretty ''advanced'' (off course not compared to big cities), you should check it and think about visiting one day.

I'll serve as a guide around and introduce you to MAdeira food ..made in a more modern way ( thermomixxxxxx ) heheheh

Cheers ;)

Ow guys, thanks for you answers :D

I'm very happy to be on this forum. There's some great looking recipes.. wow.. and my tooth.. definitely sweet! :D  Sometimes too much ;)

I can understand the language barrier.. but I mean with this incredible machine that is the Thermomix .. if you have the ingredients and the procedure .. the rest is very easy :D

@I Love Bimby!: I'll definitely try that one ;) Seems so good and light.. perfect for this extremely hot days we've been having here. I'll maybe even cut out the sugar to half using fructose ;)

@chickey: Indeed ''Pasteis de Nata'' is a very very common recipe around here (we love it). You can see it in every pastry... and actually the recipe is in our ''portuguese thermomix base book'' and it goes exactly like the link that judydawn posted ;) Anyway if you have any doubt on which I can help just tell me :D

Thanks to all of you for the kind responses.

Greetings from Madeira Island, Portugal
