Jams and Chutneys / Re: Choc Hazelnut spread from the EDC
« on: November 06, 2011, 12:02:17 am »
I tried this one http://www.latimes.com/features/printedition/food/la-fo-nutellarec11a-2009feb11,0,5713208.story last weekend, and it was awesome! I only had enough hazelnuts for half a batch, and found I needed a bit more oil (I just used rice bran oil)

I've bought more nuts today to make more! Really yummy and great for us because it's dairy-free  ;D

Can't wait to make this! The kids will be rapt, we haven't had milo or anything similar for ages.

What do you think though - brown sugar, raw sugar, or wait another week till my rapadura arrives??

Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Time and temperature
« on: March 12, 2011, 03:25:40 am »
Hello,

Using the thermie today the recipe said 'cook 80c 5 mins' but I noticed that it took 4+ mins for the thermie to reach 80c, so only really cooked for 40 secs at that temp.

My question is should I be waiting till it gets to temp and then cooking for 5 mins, or does the 5 mins in the recipe account for the time it takes to heat up?

Hope that makes sense.....

TIA

I'll keep some slices of this is the freezer for the family, but I don't think I can get past the smell  :D

Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Cooking chicken in the bowl
« on: February 07, 2011, 01:38:12 am »
I'm still pretty new to all this, but enjoying figuring things out.

Anyway, I want to make honey mustard chicken tonight, but I notice on the recipes here, the chicken gets cooked in the varoma and the sauce just spooned on at the end.

Can you actually cook the chicken with the sauce in the  *: ? Sort of like a stir fry or maybe a casserole? Or will that not work? I thought I could cook the chicken in the sauce in the  *:, keep in thermoserver, then cook rice with veg in the varoma after that?

Advice/suggestions appriciated!

Helloo!!

Very excited to finally have a thermie! Been saving for a while and now it's here!
We're using it a fair bit every day (DH even made bikkies yesterday!) but I'm looking forward to having a poke around here for lots more ideas and tips.

I am a SAHM with 3 kids and one on the way, and we're a failsafe household at present, so thermie is fantastic for cutting down on some of my time in the kitchen.

Looking forward to learning from you all   ;D
