I was wondering how many people were still using this a few months on? Are you finding it helpful to access ingredients/recipes from your cookbooks? Worth it or not?
-
This made me laugh... Wondered what this thread could be..
Salt and pepper on mine please ;D
-
LOL that was my reaction too. I thought "wow, I know these thermomix types are creative cooks, but this is going TOO FAR"
-
CP, yes I still use it and find that the new suggestions that they send weekly from books and blogs great. I have been a bit slack in cataloguing my new books. Will do so when it is too cold to go out side. Well worth the $25.
-
Yes cream puff, I use it everyday. Yesterday I went on & ended up making some koftas from the Jerusalem book, plus they have some great recipes on line :)
Well worth the annual fee :)
Same with new books too chookie :)
-
I still use it and add any new books as I get them. I have been registered for just over a year.
I agree that it is well worth $25 a year.
I find it especially useful for going back to find recipes that I know I have seen in my books but really can't remember where. Also really useful when you buy an ingredient without anything particular in mind to cook with it.
-
Will have to check it out
-
I did the free registration using the code a kind person gave us. I entered a lot of my books then, but not all. I will be honest and say I have hardly used it. I do receive their emails and tweets. I'm not sure if I would use it. I tend to menu plan with books around me. But on the other hand I can spend hours looking for a specific recipe.
-
What I like is to type in for example lamb mince & all the recipes come up that use lamb mince or if I have a few things that need to be eaten I will type them in & then choose what to make.
-
I'm still using it and agree it's worth the money.
So easy to find a recipe to match the ingredients you already have.
I keep seeing interesting cookbooks I would like to buy on their Facebook page and emails, so it can be a bit dangerous.
-
Love it! So helpful and saves lots of time. I index books for them - quite painstaking but is of benefit to me and others who own the book
-
Do they have any TM books on their list?
-
CP they have certain Thermomix Books indexed here (http://www.eatyourbooks.com/library?q=Thermomix).

Bonsai, that is very good of you.

They have Tenina and Alyces books but not official thermomix ones.

I joined up for the full membership a couple of weeks ago, and have been really pleased with the results. I've got heaps of cookbooks but I'm not using them for cooking out of, and they were taking up a lot of space. I've made recipes out of 3-4 books that I haven't used in years when I've put in a search ingredient. As it has gained popularity there have been a lot more cookbooks that have been added to the index, included TM. For $25 a year, its making my existing purchased books better value.
Earlier conversation here (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=12219.0).

I have been thinking about this still. Some of my cookbooks are a little hidden. This would make me use them more. How long did it take you to enter all your books CP?
-
Cookie, it is well worth the money. I am in year 2 :)
-
Not long cookie because it's come a long way in the past year or so. It's just a matter of pressing the 'bookshelf ' button.
-
Thanks for that CP. I follow them on twitter.
-
Some lovely recipes from Mary berrys book today from their email :)
-
Ooh I love Mary Berry.
