Hello from Wagga Wagga
« on: February 24, 2011, 10:17:20 pm »
Howdy All,

I have had my eye on a thermomix ever since I saw one on master chef and thought I HAVE to have one!!
Mind you its an expensive cocktail maker, thats what I had in my head for why i really wanted it and for the sorbets!
But know the world is my oyster and I am loving it!
The poor thing didnt stop after I had the varoma demo. I made 4 batches of relish thanks to one of the ladies on the forum Sally (sorry I cant recall your user name, but you deserve credit) and also Maggie Beer.
so far i am happy with my thermo, made some beef strog, butter chicken, pumkin soup, coffee to die for, sorbet of various flavours...apple works best without the skin (add some vodka and you have the ultimate slushy), now I just need to experiment with some cakes and biscuits...my specialty.
And thanks to Judy Dawn for the coleslaw. Have a BBQ today for over 50 and it only took 20 minutes to make the coleslaw. It is superb.

Thanks
Nic

Hi Nic, welcome to the forum.  Sounds like you are really into it - funny how we think we will only use it for this or that and then end up going the whole hog and making all sorts of things we never dreamt we would make.  Glad you had success with your coleslaw and for 50 people too, that would have been a few batches so I guess you had time to get it right.
Cakes and biscuits next - what about bread, are you going to give that a go too?  Love to hear further from you with all your successes and reviews of recipes you try from the forum or books.  Every posting helps others who are not so sure of themselves.

Hi Nic and welcome. It sounds like you may be the queen of coleslaw.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
