So I made the mayonnaise part of this recipe again today as I will need it a few times this week. Just wondering if anyone can tell me how long this keeps for?

By the way, I have to say this is the best tasting and easiest mayo I have made!

Hubby seems to think it's perfect as is and managed to go through about 80% of it on his own in one day!

The name of this bread appealed to me so I thought I'd give it a go. I stuffed it up from the first step when it said to set aside the wheat grains I had just milled. Regardless, it turned out ok and was a little dense. Hubby really liked the flavours as did my 2 year old however I found it a bit salty and would not include the extra teaspoon of salt next time.

Made these the other day and have to agree it's a soft mixture to cook but went quite well. I can't say I'm too fond of the flavour though and I definitely needed the aioli to go with it. Had avocado with it too which didn't help much but maybe 'cos they're not in season, the flavour wasn't best.

Recipe Book Recipe Reviews / Recipe Review - Moroccan lamb Soup - QFITT p120
« on: May 11, 2014, 02:40:50 pm »
These are the kind of recipes I like - simple, quick and tasty! Prep is only 5  mins and then you let it cook for 1 hour and it's done!

Lovely soup with just the right amount of spice/heat for me.

I had bought both diced lamb and diced beef from the butcher but I didn't know which was which so I picked the lighter one, assuming it was the lamb I needed. Can't be sure it was the right one but it tasted good and it's a great winter recipe.

It's working! I gave it a good clean underneath and I think there was a frozen pea stuck to the bottom which may have been the culprit. I usually just lift the TMX and hold it while wiping the feet but this time I decided to put it on its back and do it properly and it worked!

I have made various nut butters and I have found that indeed if you process for longer, it does become more liquid and therefore you wouldn't need more oil. 40 seconds doesn't sound long at all. Sometimes you have to process for a couple of minutes, wait for it to cool down, process again and repeat a few times to get a smoother consistency but I have not tried this recipe.

Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Scales not working properly - halving quantities.
« on: May 08, 2014, 01:26:58 pm »
So my scales haven't been working properly for a few weeks now. In fact, they measure almost exactly half the amount. For example, if I put 500g worth of an ingredient in there, it says it's only 250g. Has anyone else had this?

I have cleaned the feet, extended cord out and checked for other obvious faults with no success. Actually it did very temporarily fix itself. I had contacted by consultant and have a form to hand it in for repairs but use it too much and so haven't got around to it yet. Just using regular scales for now. Can anyone shed any light on this?

These are delicious! I loved the the taste and texture.

It takes about 2.5 hours all up to make. The dough rises really easily. (I put my dough in a preheated oven to rise) It wasn't easy making the bagels and it's very important to flour hands. I couldn't make a hole nicely so my bagels are all different shapes and sizes but regardless, they taste amazing.

I was surprised to see the bagels grow in size once they finished steaming in the Varoma. They did take a lot longer to cook/brown than the 20 mins suggested. At least 1/2 hour I think.

They taste great both warm and cold.

Recipe Book Recipe Reviews / Recipe Review - Omelette Frittata Creation - no.62 free Varoma ebook
« on: April 24, 2014, 02:35:50 am »
I tried this this morning as I wanted to make an omelette and have a whole heap of bacon to use up.

It's a simple recipe but there is not much detail eg amount of ingredients. I diced one rasher of shortcut bacon, one cheek of capsicum and used some spinach. I also whisked the 3 eggs with some baking soda to make it fluffy. Used Varoma bowl instead of tray.

The texture was great but unfortunately there was no flavour. I added sour cream when serving to help me get it down.

I much prefer another option I have tried ages ago from a blog that uses butter and cream in the recipe.

No, not recently but I looked into starting it again but the daily emails I received are no longer available to me. I think I would do better with it this time round.

Thank you. I ended up finding some 00 flour that needed using up and made some bread rolls with psylium husks on here. Not bad.

Hi everyone. I need a bread recipe that doesn't require bakers flour, eggs or milk.

I do have plain flour, SR flour and coconut flour available to use.

Any recipes that use these instead? Rolls are fine too

I had come across a similar recipe like I mentioned in the post CC shared and this made it clearer. I would prefer a more standard way of dying them using dye and possibly the rice basket. I might give it a go if feeling brave.
