Title: Hello from Oregon USA

Looking forward to reading and posting with this new community!

Post by: ElectronGuru on December 13, 2013, 01:39:18 am: Thanks!

Our favorite thing is a sun dried tomato marinara sauce the Mrs came up with. We also do lots of mashed potatoes, vegetable soups, and hard boiled eggs. The mashed potato technique was a hit over thanksgiving for sweet potatoes.

Deserts include chocolate chip cookie dough, (tempered) chocolate dipped fruit, and snow (used with various syrups).

BTW, we just got a Breville Oven to go with it. It does a pretty good poached egg, so I was looking for a hollandaise sauce receipt for use with the TM and landed on a forumthermomix thread.

BBTW, having inquired with TM HQ when shopping, I was contacted recently by them about a possible US sales effort.

http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=6470.0 This is a list of tried and true favourites from a long term forum member, CreamPuff63 - it's virtually a cookbook in itself!

http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=13567.0 The beef stroganoff is a favourite, but scroll down just a little and there is a list of links of other fabulous dishes from Chelsea (ThermieGroupie)

A very warm welcome, and so glad you found us all - and how good was it to have the TMX for Thanksgiving!!

Looking forward to hearing more from you soon . . :D

Lucky you to get a Thermomix in the States. We all wish it would take off there to increase our membership here!

Be sure to visit this website as well for a fellow North American. http://www.superkitchenmachine.com

Post by: ElectronGuru on December 14, 2013, 08:29:32 pm: Thank you everyone. So many welcomes and links! So much to read, so much to read...

Yeah, the hardest part about being a TM owner in the States is the lack of connection, for just about everything. But I can see this forum (and all of you) are going to alleviate much of that :D
