Chit Chat / Re: Making butter... good for you or not ??
« on: November 01, 2010, 12:57:31 am »
What you have to say is interesting MaryBrown. I have been thinking about it. Would you say cooking fish in butter is a high heat? I wonder exactly what 'high heat' means? Butter is used in so many places and such a varying degree of heat. Where did your friend get the information? The article would make interesting reading. Thanks.

Suggestions and Complaints / Re: unsuccessful with cakes in TMx
« on: November 01, 2010, 12:51:55 am »
I love baking but must admit I often use my old handbeater. I do love the TMX cakes on the forum though and make those, especially if I need one in a hurry.

JuJu it sounds like you (well your DH) are having great fun. He has to go to work today so I hope you get a turn. Noah will be enjoying all the goodies. Glad you enjoyed the steamed pudding. Did you make custard to go with it?

Jodi, if your jam is thin, take the MC out, put the basket over the hole and turn the temperature up to Varoma for a while.  Keep an eye on it though. I make the starwberry jam from here and it is lovely. I've copied it to here for you.
Hi,

Don't know if this is any help to anyone but most of the strawberry jam recipes I've seen say to warm the sugar in the oven first.  I've made two batches of jam using the method below:
500g hulled and halved strawberries
500g jam sugar (csr brand)

Heat the sugar on 10 minutes, 80, speed 1
Add strawberries and cook 35 minutes, 100, speed 1
Check for jelling on a cold saucer
Bottle

Have a great day
Stacey

Thanks. They were really tasty. I filled them with cream cheese and chopped dill and smoked salmon. DH took some with him this morning to a car club do and the plate came home empty.

Recipe Requests / Re: Peanuts

They are simply peanuts that are not roasted, they are boiled in saltewater. A very Queensland thing I think.

Thanks, mine has been Termite for 2 years so I don't think I could give him a name change.

Lovely food last night and Chookie, everyone loved your savoury puffs, and CP63 thanks for the conversion. I think I added a bit much egg so I will be more careful next time as the mixture was more liquid than I've made before. Taste-fantastic.

How amazing. Now the poor patients will be wondering what this TMX is that you all speak about, unless of course they own one and they can join in before you put them 'under'.

Congratulations Jodi, that is exciting news. We all understand how you feel about your TMX. We're the same.

How is the cookin' goin' vermins? I hope things are going well. It is normal to have some failures, often they can be turned into soup or icecream. Bron is a wizard at this.
