Chit Chat / making butter
« on: February 28, 2010, 04:44:23 am »
Hi, i am not sure if this is a stupid question but i need to ask.

I bought some cream to try and make butter, but i noticed the use by date was 2nd March. Does this mean my butter will only last til then also??

Also another question, I grated a block of mozzarella cheese last night for home made pizzas, and have way too much left over. IS it okay to freeze?

THanks in advance for any help!

Chit Chat / some ideas for new user
« on: February 14, 2010, 10:40:48 am »
hi, i am unsure if i am posting in the correct place, but i am sure someone will let me know :)
I have not as yet recieved my Thermy but i am trying to get prepared for his arrival. I have read many helpful posts but i was wondering if someone could help me with this.
I want to make a list of all the things i can make myself (instead of buying of shelf) and that is used on a daily basis or is needed in many recipes, therefore i can be organised and have it on hand.
An example of things i have thought of are; (please add if i missed something which i am sure of that's why i am posting!)
* salad dressing
* castor sugar
* icing sugar
* hommus
* dukkah
* butter
* jam
* stock
* sauces (bbq & tom)
I would love to hear everyone elses ideas.
THis is the most helpful and friendly forum I have ever been a part of.
Thanks heaps

Introduce Yourself / hi - needing some reassurance!
« on: February 07, 2010, 11:45:41 am »
Hi to all,

I hosted a demo last week, and made the plunge to order my "thermy" on Friday, but haven't done so "officially yet because i am yet to do a bank deposit to pay. In the mean time all week end i am second guessing myself whether or not i will use this fantastic machine! I have stalked thermomix on google and been over this forum heaps, and still yet to find a bad word about Thermy but i still can't help but be nervous! My main concern is I am very weight conscious and try to avoid carbs in my eating, and so i am wondering will it be any use to me? I do have 3 kids so i am hoping i can use it to their benefit if not my own, but i am also very nervous about the use of "thermy" as he can be quite intimidating.
I do hope someone can tell me i won't regret my decision!

Cheers!
