Updates to EDC - JUne 2009

[judydawn]

I had all these changes and new recipes printed out for DD & her friend but no point giving it to her if the new recipe doesn't work

Maybe I should have realised before I started making them but all other recipes I've ever seen all entail cooking the custard a bit before putting into a water bath.  This recipe doesn't cook it at all, just mixes in the bowl then you pour into the ramekins, then into the water bath.  Obviously needs to be heated before it will thicken and set.  I see that now.

My EDC book is Jan 2009 and my Creme Brulee recipe is almost the same as in the updated version that has just been listed.  Mine doesn't say to add cornflour, and it does say to cook in the Varoma not the oven, but that's about it. 

I made it today and it didn't set even after sitting in a water bath in the oven for almost 1 1/2 hours.  I did only use 2 tsp cornflour but that was the only change.  The top set, but when you distrurbed it  underneath was very liquidy, as thin as milk.  What a waste of 5 eggs.

I have just had a look at the TM recipes page on the UK site, and their recipe looks more promising and will give it a try in a few days.   

Need to follow up on this - Tenina has probably tested, so we'll ask her.

I probably could find another demonstrator Meagan but I have this lovely forum and ILB is very kind in sharing things with me.

Everyday Cookbook—June 09 Edition Changes

· Mushroom Risotto—recipe replaced with original demo guide version

My edition of EDC was printed in May 2008 - is this the latest version? I cannot see the ingredients list for the risotto here to amend my recipe. Can TMXFM  point me in the right direction?

CreamPuff, here's my demo recipe (I can't find the "official consultant recipe" but it will be similar):

200g parmesan cheese cubed
few dried porchini mushrooms
1/2 medium onion
50g olive oil
410g arborio rice
100g white wine (optional)
100g fresh mushrooms
1 desertspoon of chopped dried shitake mushrooms, soaked in water (pulse them in the tmx and store)
1-2 desertspoons veggie stock concentrate
1100g water
baby spinach, chopped asparagus or chopped zucchini (optional)

Add cheese to bowl and grate on speed 9-10 for 10 seconds. Remove and set aside.
Grind porchini mushrooms on spee 9-10 for 10 seconds.
Add onion and cut on speed 5 for 10 seconds or until chopped.
Add oil and saute for 2 mins, 100C speed 2.
Add wine, rice and 1/2 fresh mushroms. Saute for 2 mins, 100C, speed 2.
Add shitake mushrooms, vegie stock concentrate, water. Cook 100C, 16 mins, Reverse speed 1 1/2.
Tip - it will probably start 'spitting' - remove MC and replace with basket on top of the lid, which will allow air in and out without letting the food splatter everywhere.

Add spinach, chopped asparagus or chopped zucchini to Thermoserver.  Pour Risotto over top. Don't worry if it's still a bit soupy as it will continue to cook in the Thermoserver. Leave for 5 minutes then serve with fresh parmesan cheese.

TIP: If you wish to make the risotto 1/2 hr before being served, cook for 13-14 minutes and let it continue to cook in the Thermoserver.

Thank you ILB, have only just seen this

DD has just signed up as a consultant and the machine was delivered today. Yippee!! MM (being Mere Mum - maybe new acronym?) has just spent all night between taxi-ing and checking through old and new EDC and will post all the new changes as I have previously made changes to my book, but I have found that in comparison there is a lot more to note than mentioned on the forum. If you want to save the paper I will post the changes in the easiest format that I can come up with over the next week, and whilst paying attention to recent posts re copyright will try to overcome this. I am a bit of a neat freak, and will probably end up buying the new edition, but I would like to think that there are some "enviromentalists" out there who will just amend their books accordingly.

Ta CP63 (saving space !!  ) It would be great - maybe Tenina has a list?

[brazen20au]

i've even noticed changes between the vegetarian book and the EDc 

[Thermomixer]

Maybe because Tenina did lots of testing for the Vegetarian cookbook?

[brazen20au]

good on her

[CreamPuff63]

I was amazed at the number of changes, as I thought I had updated everything from TMXFM just recently. I'll get around to this during the week. Interestingly, the Mushroom Rissotto recipe was exactly as in my book with only variations in the general tips, etc.

Thanks CP63
