Title: Silverside suggestions?
Post by: Thermesa on February 23, 2014, 02:04:44 am
I have a piece of corned silverside that will fit in the TMX basket. I haven't been game to try coking a regular piece in tmx as I am generally cooking it to entertain with and I know I'm happy with my oven technique. So this is a test piece for TMX.

Does anyone have suggestions on how I prepare it. Being that it fits in the basket does it need the varoma? Would it boil or steam in the jug.

Have you seen  this (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=7974.0) recipe Thermesa?  If your piece is smaller and fits into the steaming basket, then by all means use that.

Thank you JD. I think I'd seen it when my meat was too big. Might reduce the water content so I don't get a flood.

I thought today's pickled pork fitted the basket. Didn't factor in enough swelling. Turned tmx into a pressure cooker and currently sitting under a tap in casualty. Ouchies

Oh Thermesa, that's no good, I have cooked silverside in the varoma I have even done it in the bag that it came in ,nice and moist , when it comes to the boil you should turn it down to a gentle steam  if it is in the basket inside.

I use Tenina's recipe. It's delicious! If you have her first book, it's in there.

Sorry to hear that Thermesa, steam is so dangerous.  I hope you haven't done too much damage.

Loaded up on painrelief now. Will know more tomorrow about how much impact it will have on my working week.
Could have been a lot worse.

Take care Thermesa. You haven't got one of those thermies that need the green seal, have you?

I do happen to need a green seal but it wasn't the seal at fault. My own stupidity. Much better today. Thank you.

I missed your post about your accident! So sorry to hear that. I tip the MC so it allows the steam to escape. I only cook on 85.

Green seal is hard work. Kind of looking forward to electronic locking now. Arm healed well. I have a tegaderm film on to protect the more sensitive skin. Looks like I've escaped the scar. And all the meat got eaten!
